How do you choose the perfect wall decoration if you don't know?
Choosing the right wall decoration can be difficult, especially if you don't have a clear idea of what you want. But don't worry! With this simple step-by-step plan, we will help you on your way to a stylish and personal choice.
Step 1: Analyze your space
Start by taking a good look at the space where the wall decoration will be placed. Ask yourself the following questions:
- How big is the wall?
- What is the atmosphere of the room (modern, rural, industrial)?
- Which colours dominate the interior?
If necessary, take a photo of the space to better visualize later which decoration fits.
Step 2: Choose a theme
A theme helps you to search more specifically. Think of:
- Nature : Think of landscapes, flowers or animals.
- Abstract : Colorful patterns or geometric shapes.
- Cities : Photos of architecture, skylines or cityscapes.
- Personal : An image or collage of your own photos.
The theme can be tailored to your interests or the function of the room. For example, a soothing theme is ideal for a bedroom, while a creative space benefits from abstract or inspiring prints.
Step 3: Determine the size
The size of your wall art is crucial. A small art piece on a large empty wall can seem lost, while an oversized art piece can overwhelm a small space. As a guideline:
- Small walls : Choose a single small print or a set of smaller decorations.
- Large walls : Go for a statement piece or a gallery wall.
Use painter's tape or newspaper to try out different sizes on the wall.
Step 4: Material selection
Wall decorations are available in different materials, each with a unique look:
- Canvas : Timeless and soft, perfect for any interior style.
- Dibond : A luxurious, sleek look, ideal for modern spaces.
- Acoustic panels : For both aesthetics and functional sound insulation.
- Wood : Gives a warm, natural look.
Think about what suits your space and personal preference.
Step 5: Choose the right colors
The colours of your wall decoration should harmonise with the rest of your interior. Consider:
- Tones that match : For a calm, cohesive look.
- Contrasting colours : To make a statement.
- Neutral tones : When you don't want to take any risks.
Use a color sample or digital tools to see how the colors will fit in the space.
Step 6: Get inspired
Inspiration can be found everywhere! Visit home furnishing stores, browse interior magazines or look online at platforms such as Pinterest or Instagram. At Wandkraft we have an extensive collection to help you choose.
