Make a Dramatic Statement with Wall Art

There’s no denying that a statement wall can completely transform a room. It’s an easy way to add character and personality to your home — we’re big fans. 

One of our favorite ways to create a statement that’s both modern and personal is by juxtaposing a simple dark palette with a pop of color, using art to create a sense of place.

In this photo, the dark brick feature wall is offset by a photo of Big Sur (from our own collection). The bright aqua against the moody gray immediately makes the room come alive, transporting you to the stunning California coastline. This juxtaposition of modern and natural, dark and light, creates a sense of drama and sophistication that elevates the space.

But why is a statement wall so important? Well, for one, it can make a space feel unique and personal. By incorporating art that speaks to your vibe and interests, you’re creating a space that feels truly yours. This is especially important when living in a rental property or temporary home, where you may not be able to make larger changes to the space.  A little paint and some framed artwork is both easy and affordable.

Moreover, a statement wall can add a touch of elegance and sophistication, making it feel more elevated and intentional. Whether it’s a photograph of a favorite landscape or a colorful abstract painting, art can transport you to other places and evoke feelings of nostalgia or wanderlust. By using art to create a statement wall, you’re not only adding beauty to your home, but you’re also creating an experience that engages the senses and sparks the imagination.  Or just some truly great memories.

If you can’t live in Hawaii or Italy, build a moment that evokes the place you love.  Usually cheaper than a plane ticket.
