Is this wall art too small for my ginormous couch?
Comments (8)The width isn't bad. The rule of thumb is 2/3 to 3/4 of the sofa width. The iron work is nice but I'm not sure if it has enough visual weight to balance out with the sofa. Have you considered something with more color and presence? Here is a triptych from the Houzz store....See MoreArt is Too Small for Wall
Comments (20)I would have it reframed, including a mat to enlarge the piece on the whole, and then hang it slightly lower. You don't need to add anything else to the wall; as noted above, the minimalism is quite nice, and adding more will detract from that....See MoreHELP!!! Art work placement plus Entryway console
Comments (33)I have no help to add about the art but I do love the colorful rug @celery showed I the last post. Something dramatic with that gorgeous green in it will tie the room together. Your dining table is stunning! And the green chairs are a happy surprise ( most dining rooms have all chairs the same)....See MoreIs the wall art behind the island too small?
Comments (11)It’s art, subjective and personal. And we can’t see other angles of the room or what’s on the right side of the picture to get a sense of dimension. Do you enjoy looking at it? That’s all that matters. We can all stage the room based on our own likes/dislikes, or impart decorating rules, but art isn’t meant to just be wall filler. Some like more color, some like more graphic, some like giant sized art, some like gallery walls, some like minimalism, or any combo of these, and on and on and on. I like your Halloween decor. :)...See Moreaimeekm
