ART – The Most Important Decorative Accessory in Your Home

March 14, 2021

There are many elements that make up the composition of a room, your furniture, lighting fixtures, rugs, window treatments, accessories such as pillows, knick-knacks, and plants. But the most important decorative accessory that has the greatest impact in your room is your art, whether a painting, photography or sculpture.

Art, in various forms, is the focal point of any room. When we walk into a room, we are drawn to the art immediately. It sets the mood, generates an ambiance like no other object in the room. And it captures our attention. It reaches our senses. It can be vibrant exploding with color or calm and muted evoking feelings of tranquility.

Art has the power to transport us visually to another location or time. It can bring back memories of the past and help us revisit places and times we treasure.

And if it is contemporary non-representational abstract art it has the power to makes us think, to try to interpret what those lines and colors represent to us or what we think might be the intention of the artist in creating this work of art.
