The Challenge of choosing the right work of art

We all want to create that magical space where we feel that all the elements fit together perfectly. Choosing the art that will complete it is always a challenge. On the one hand, the piece of art must be able to express a message, stand out on its own and at the same time be part of an environment and in harmony with the energy you want to reflect. 

Of course there are many points to take into account, however, we want to share these three tips that we consider the basis for choosing any work of art.


1- Find an emotional connection

Whether it reminds you of a special moment, a specific memory, or just gives you a good feeling, the most important factor to consider when buying art for your special place is finding an emotional connection. “ Like the wine, the best art is not necessary the most expensive or famous, but the art you love,” says Felix. “You’ll recognise it because the piece will jump off the wall and wrap itself around you.”“It’s vital to remember that artwork will become the focal point of a room, so beyond the image, the storytelling behind the artwork is something also very important. It’s probably one of the single most important purchases you’ll make for your interior. But as long as you go for something you truly connect with, you won’t go too far wrong.”

2- Create a ‘mood’

At a basic level, this means choosing colours that complement each other, either matching a piece of artwork to your existing colour scheme, or picking two or three colours from the piece and adding accents from that around the room.

Try to repeat shapes and angles throughout your scheme. “If your furniture features hard, industrial edges, choose artwork that incorporates sharp lines and angles,”. “It’s about making sure that nothing jars and everything talks to each other.”

3- Consider your space

Whichever room you’re buying for, you should think about the atmosphere you’d like to create there. “Some artists have a noisy energy to their style and their work often fits well within busy environments such as kitchens and living areas; quieter pieces work better in rooms where you might want to create a calmer setting, such as bedrooms and bathrooms.” It’s also important to make sure you consider scale.

We hope these tips help you. Anyway, if you have questions or doubts or if you want to see how a piece of Feliz looks on one of your walls, you can contact us, send us a photo and we can make a mock-up so you can see how it would look, without obligation. Contact us here:
