WHAT TO DO ABOVE THE SOFA?

Finding something for the wall behind your sofa can be stressful. When you think of all the elements in the space you wish to fill, you have a few things to consider-length of your sofa, wall space (height of ceiling, etc.), materials used in room. You should never use small artwork over a normal to large sofa because it can appear disproportionate and too small or dinky for the space.


If it has been difficult finding a suitably scaled, single painting or print, consider using a collection of prints. Using multiple prints in a tight grid can look awesome! Remember that a great idea is to center the artwork over your sofa by extending it about 2/3 the length of your sofa on the wall.





Hope that helps!
