Best Styles for Living Room Walls

Landscape & Nature — Calm and Timeless. A large landscape print above a sofa creates the feeling of a window onto nature.

Abstract Art — Bold Statement Pieces. Choose colours that echo existing elements.

Minimalist Prints — Clean Scandinavian Style. The natural choice for all-white living rooms.

Photo Art — Dramatic Focal Points. Best as a single large piece.

How to Size Wall Art for a Living Room

Single statement: 50×70 cm minimum above a sofa.

Gallery wall: 50×70 anchor + 30×40 and 21×30. Span 100–120 cm.

Above-sofa formula: Art spans two-thirds sofa width. Frame 20–30 cm above sofa back.
