Great Places for Nature Art

Every room has its own personality, and the art you choose can bring it to life.

Living Room
The living room is the heart of the house, where people naturally gather. That makes it the perfect spot for a bold piece. A big landscape or a night sky above the sofa sets the whole mood for the room. 

Bedroom
Your bedroom should feel like a sanctuary. Peaceful, calming art can help with that. Think soft landscapes, still lakes, or starry skies. Hang a piece above the bed, place one on a dresser, or tuck something smaller into a cozy corner. Even smaller art prints can make the whole room feel more serene.

Home Office
Your workspace can be inspiring too. The right piece of art can help you focus or spark creativity. Blues and greens are perfect for when you need to feel calm, while purples and warmer tones can give you a boost when your brain feels sluggish. Pick a place you’ll actually look at during the day, not something hidden behind your chair.

Hallways and Entryways
These spaces can feel like afterthoughts, but they’re great for showcasing smaller pieces or creating a gallery wall. A bold print in the entryway gives people a reason to pause (in a good way) when they walk in. Hallways are perfect for tying everything together with a few thoughtful pieces.

Dining Room
The dining room is where art really earns its place. A peaceful landscape or an abstract piece can add elegance and make meals feel a little more special. Think about the mood you want for your dinners (relaxed, lively, or somewhere in between) and let the art set the tone.

Tips for Hanging Art

Picking the right art is half the fun, but where and how you hang it is just as important. Here are a few tips to make your art look its best:

• Hang at Eye Level: The center of your art should be about 5 feet (1.5 m) from the floor. This keeps it at a comfortable height for most people and avoids being too high or too low.
• Match the Size to the Space: Big, bold pieces look amazing in open spaces like the living room, while smaller ones are ideal for hallways or quiet nooks.
• Try a Gallery Wall: If you have several smaller pieces, group them together on a hallway or staircase wall. Mix and match frames for a fun, layered look that doesn’t feel too formal.
• Add Natural Details: Wooden frames, woven textures, or a plant nearby can tie everything together. It’s little touches that make the room feel cohesive.

Make Art the Focal Point

Sometimes, the best way to display art is to let it take center stage.

• Above the Sofa: In the living room, a bold landscape or serene nature piece can anchor the space and pull the whole room together.
• Above the Bed: A calming piece, like a forest or a starry night, turns your bedroom into a retreat.
• In the Dining Room: A large artwork here can become a stunning backdrop for meals and gatherings, making the space warm and inviting without trying too hard.
