'Proportionality is key!' – 4 tricks to choose the right-sized artwork for your living room, from experts

Living room with tiled wall and fireplace and beige sofas.

Most beautifully designed living rooms have one element in common: curated artworks are displayed throughout the space in a thoughtful and seamless way. Whether you're styling artwork above your sofa or around the TV in a gallery-like style, there are certain rules when it comes to picking the right size artwork that will make your room look balanced and put together while accentuating certain features of the space.

Beautifully curated art is a conversation starter and adds that extra element of personality that makes the room feel lived in, so getting it right is key.
