Members’ favourites: Interiors decorated with art by members of The List
Too often, artwork is treated as an afterthought when designing a room. When chosen thoughtfully, art has the ability to transform a space and infuse it with personality. Crucially, it can act as an all-important focal point to a room, creating structure where other elements can start to fall in place. The colours in the artwork can also be a useful guideline for the rest of your scheme. Pull some of your favourite colours from a piece and use them in other places throughout the room, whether that takes the shape of a cushion on your sofa or the sofa itself.
To get the most out of your artwork of choice, be sure it's lit properly. Businesses like TM Lighting are great resources, especially if you have a large art collection that you'd like to exhibit, as they can offer advice on how to display everything from paintings and sculptures to textiles. Fourth Dimension Lighting Design is a great option for those who want a lighting scheme that will enhance and define the architecture and architectural features. If your collection is made of pieces that will hang on walls, it's worth thinking about framing as well. After all, a large guilt frame gives off a very different energy than a thin black one.
