Quickie Tip!

Courtesy of the Boston Globe today:

• Take into consideration ideal viewing distance for each piece, depending on scale, medium, and quality of the work


• Artwork groupings can be used to define spaces in a large room.


• Pick a frame that goes with the artwork, not the room decor. It might eventually wind up on a different wall.


• Track lighting offers the ultimate flexibility, with spots that can be doubled up on a single large painting or redirected to accommodate rehanging.


• Fabric and wall colors should complement, not compete with, the art.
