Want to make your home look amazing? Wall art prints are a super cool way to do it! But with so many awesome prints to choose from, how do you pick the perfect one? Don't worry, we've got you covered with this easy guide from Stone & Gray!
1. Look at Your Room First
Before you start shopping, take a good look at your room. What colors do you see? What kind of furniture do you have? You want your new art to fit in with all of this stuff.
For example, if your room has lots of plain colors and simple furniture, you might like prints like these:
Abstract Bauhaus Symmetry Art Print
From R 395.00
Abstract Blue Segments Art Print
From R 349.00
2. Think About How You Want to Feel
Different art can make you feel different ways. Do you want your room to feel calm and peaceful? Or fun and exciting?
- For a calm room: Look for prints with soft colors and relaxing pictures, like oceans or forests.
- For an exciting room: Choose prints with bright colors and bold designs.
3. Pick Art That Shows Who You Are
Your home should be all about you! Choose art that you really love and that shows what you're into. Do you like animals? Nature? Cool abstract designs?

4. Get the Size Right
Before you fall in love with a print, make sure it will fit on your wall! Here are some tips:
- For art above furniture: Choose a print that's about 2/3 as wide as the furniture
- Hang your art at eye level (about 57-60 inches from the floor)
- If you're making a gallery wall, leave 2-4 inches between frames
5. Mix It Up!
Don't be afraid to mix different styles of art in your home. It's like making a super cool art playlist! You could put a vintage-looking print next to a modern abstract one. Just try to find something that ties them together, like a color or theme.
