How to Choose Art for a Room

Start with scale. A piece that feels small in a gallery photo can disappear on a large wall ... measure your wall before you fall in love with a size.

Match tone to light. Rooms with strong natural light can support bolder color; dimmer rooms often benefit from calmer, lighter palettes.

Choose mood last. Decide whether the room should feel calm, energetic, or contemplative, then let that guide the final pick.
