1. Embracing Bohemian Flair with Earthy and Multicultural Wall Art<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Boho, or bohemian wall decor should emphasize the overall casual and comfortable aesthetic of a bohemian-inspired space. \u201cEarthy\u201d and \u201cmulticultural\u201d are good adjectives for describing boho artwork, but there are no hard rules when it comes to this style of home decor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A boho wall art idea often includes layers of color, texture, and pattern displayed in an unconventional manner. Macrame wall hangings are practically a mainstay in boho living room wall decor. Flat woven baskets or mats also work as boho wall art ideas, whether hung as a collection or scattered among a larger living room wall art display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

2. Creative Lighting Ideas for Wall Ambience<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Few people think of lighting when it comes to wall decor ideas, but it\u2019s one of the easiest ways to add a great deal of ambience to your room decor. Whether in the bedroom, dining room, or living room, decorative lighting<\/a> is an excellent way to elevate your living space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Wall sconces are great inclusions on a gallery wall. You can add LED light strips to the back of a large wall painting<\/a> or framed draw attention to that piece at night. Fairy light strands add an inviting glow to a dark corner and help create a casual living room decor vibe. Backlit wall hangings are ever easier to find and will bathe the space with warm illumination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

3. Functional Art Pieces on Walls<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

The term \u201dfunctional art\u201d describes art that is both beautiful and functional. It refers to objects that we use for a purpose but also serve an aesthetic purpose, such as a vase or lamp. Furniture is a common example of functional art when it is well crafted and unique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Artfully designed doors, door handles, and door knockers are highly collectible functional art pieces. Wall shelves<\/a> become functional art when they step out of the basic linear design and become a focal point all their own. Designer clocks are another good example of functional wall decor ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4. Creating a Cohesive Gallery Wall<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

A gallery wall is a collection of photos, paintings, illustrations, or other pieces artfully arranged to fill a bare wall. Usually, the pieces have something in common, such as a collection of black and white family photos or perhaps artwork from a favorite holiday destination.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you enjoy inspirational quotes or words, a gallery wall is a great place to insert one or two. Either include a wall decal, or put your favorite saying in a picture frame that coordinates with the rest of the design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

5. Luxury Aesthetic through Artwork<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Artwork is one of the ways an interior designer creates a luxury aesthetic in a client\u2019s living space. Anything gilded and glamorous is a suitable wall decor option in a luxurious home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When money is no object, shop for high end artwork. This includes signed and numbered limited edition prints or original canvases painted by famous artists. Wall decoration sculptures and original functional art pieces also add sophisticated detail to luxury interiors. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

6. Versatile Metal Art Blending<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Metal art can work with any interior design style. Farmhouse style has brought many new metal wall art ideas to choose from\u2014everything from windmill blade replicas to vintage signs and beautifully rusted metal stars.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Etched metal living room wall decor is a more elegant type of wall feature, as is delicate metal flowers and other simple wall sculptures. Look for silver, bronze, gold, copper, or black finishes that complement the other metallic room accents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

7. Minimalist Wall Artwork for Contemporary Space<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Minimalist artwork is exactly what it sounds like: an extreme form of abstract art that uses simple lines and shapes, usually with a monochromatic color palette. Because modern decor is often neutral, a minimalist piece of artwork may be the only place where a different color is introduced into the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Minimalist paintings and wall sculptures are simple decorating ideas that can make your living room or dining room<\/a> feel like a modern art gallery. It adds enough life and contrast to the space without distracting attention away from your contemporary furniture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

8. Brightening Up with Mirrored Wall Art<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Adding a mirror\u2014or several\u2014to an empty wall is a great way to visually expand a small living room<\/a>. Mirrors are also a type of living room wall art that brightens up the space by reflecting available light. Hang a large mirror over the sofa, or prop an oversized mirror against the living room wall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Smaller mirrors or mirrored tiles serve the same purpose without taking up as much of your open wall space. Hang wall shelves with a mirror above them instead of artwork, and make a colorful plant or other shelf decorations the focus of this display.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

9. Embracing Simplicity with Modern Art<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Modern art has gotten a bad rap for being too simplistic, but sometimes simplicity is the best option in modern decor<\/a>. Group simple geometric shapes made of metal or wood into a gallery wall of sorts, adding a modern touch to the space. When planning the layout, focus as much on the negative space (the space between shapes) as on the shapes themselves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
