1. ~ MIX DIFFERENT MEDIUMS

A great way to create a curated look is by mixing and matching different types of mediums such as painting, photographs, sculptures, or even limited edition prints. Combining these elements adds variety and depth to your space.

Browse different mediums..

Paintings | Oil or Acrylic

Paintings | Mixed Media

Watercolours   Drawings

Photography   Sculpture

Limited Edition Prints

2. ~ PLAY WITH DIFFERENT SIZES

When it comes to size, you don’t have to stick to one uniform size. You can mix and match sizes for a more dynamic look. Just make sure to hang pieces of similar weight on the same wall, or you might end up with uneven walls.

Browse artwork sizes…

Over 150cm   101 to 150cm

51 to 100cm   Under 50cm

3. ~ GROUP SIMILAR PIECES TOGETHER

Another way to create a curated look is by grouping similar pieces together. For example, if you have several prints or a series of smaller originals, try arranging them in a grid or on either side of a painting.

4. ~ CHOOSE A CONSISTENT COLOUR PALETTE

While you may be tempted to mix as many colours and textures as possible, it’s best to keep the palette consistent. That means sticking with one colour scheme that ties everything together. Not only will this make your home look more cohesive, but it will also give it a more polished look.
