Which painting fits your interior? (Incl. mini-checklist)

23-04-2025

Choosing a painting is like falling in love. It has to do something to you. But how do you know which artwork is right for your home? Don’t worry, I’ve got your back!

Whether you just moved, want to refresh your living room, or are staring at a blank wall for weeks — this blog gives you inspiration and direction.

First things first: heart or head?
Some people feel it instantly: “That’s the one!” Others measure, rearrange furniture, take photos, and scroll endlessly. Both are perfectly fine.

What to pay attention to? Here’s my handy checklist:

1. Which room?
Is it a statement piece for the living room, something calm for the bedroom, or a bold accent in the hallway?

2. Size
Big wall = big impact. Small corner = subtle touch.
Tip: tape the size on your wall to get a feel.

3. Colors
Do you want it to match or contrast your interior?
A painting can bring all your tones together.

4. Style & vibe
Modern, dreamy, expressive, natural?
Choose what suits you and the space.

5. Emotion & story
What do you want the painting to say? Calm, bold, joyful, elegant?
Your view
Is it opposite the sofa? Make sure it’s something you’ll love looking at every day.

Bonus tip: get a visualization
Want to see how a painting fits your wall before buying? I regularly create digital visualizations for my clients — just send me a photo of your space!

Your first artwork = your story on the wall
A painting is not just decoration. It’s an extension of your personality, your style, and the way you want to feel at home.
