Staging with Art
Art can be a great tool for Staging, and the right piece or grouping of art can pull miscellaneous styles and colors in a room together to make any room say
“Come hither..”
Staging art is different than a piece you may have purchased because it spoke to you and you chose for your personal enjoyment.
Staging art is used to fill empty walls, pull a room together and help create excitement in the buyer.
There are some guidelines you’ll want to follow when Staging with Art; both in the way you select the art and how you display your Staging Artwork.
Here are 6 Great Tips for Staging with Art to Help Sell Your Home.
1.) Color Matters; repetition of color is one of the most powerful ways to create a cohesive look. Find a piece of art that can become your reference point for your color scheme throughout the house, use it on throw pillows, flowers, rugs, and other decor items throughout the house. Think of a color thread that weaves from room to room.
2.) Sized to Fit the space; Too big and it will be overwhelming, too small and it will look out of proportion. A general rule of thumb, in any furniture setting; the art should be about 75% the width of the furniture piece or grouping. This helps make the art and furniture relate to one another.
3.) Collage; if you choose to make a collection of artwork, make sure they all have something in common, such as matching frames, theme, or color. Symmetry in a collage is most appealing and adds balance.
4.) One unit; think of the art and the furniture closest to the art as one unit. Example, if you have an entry table and you want to hang a piece of art above it, offset the art slightly with a tall flower arrangement or table lamp so the three pieces flow together as one unit.
5.) Match Style and Feel; If you have a large room with high ceilings and contemporary furnishings, you’ll want to hang large pieces of contemporary art. Likewise, if your furnishings are mostly antiques, then you’ll want to use antique style frames on any artwork you use.
6.) Reflect the beauty; Mirrors can add drama and transform a room if you know how to use them in the right place. When using mirrors, make sure it reflects something beautiful, not a blank wall or ugly room. Place mirrors in places that can reflect natural light into the room. Mirrors can also help make a small dark room look more spacious.
