Deck Out Your Modern Space With Abstract Canvas Wall Art

Walls in modern spaces are often painted in neutral tones like taupe or linen, and these subdued shades provide an ideal backdrop for art and decor in hot shades that pop against a neutral Canvas Art. Bringing personality and signature style to a neutral space is as easy as repeating accent colors throughout. Hot hues like paprika, teal, and sunflower yellow can’t help but take center stage when paired with a neutral background. Here are a few suggestions on how to harness that style with canvas wall art and selected accessories.

 Make a Statement: Focal Points and Related Accents

 Build a space around artwork that speaks to your heart. Choose canvas wall art that adds color, dimension, and a personality to your room. With its graphically stark presentation, a simple unframed canvas wall art will bring architectural interest to your living space. The outer edges of stretch canvas wall art are often painted in a contrasting color that gives it instant definition. You will find large pieces that can stand alone or series canvases that are designed to be hung together to create a focal point on a large expanse of wall. Canvas wall art hung to fill a space is often sufficient on its own; when decorating a modern space, less is usually more. To make your choice of canvas wall art a truly conspicuous focal point, consider painting the wall behind it in a hue that is different from the rest of the room. A deep dramatic color that coordinates and contrasts with the colors in the canvas wall art will draw even more attention to it.

 Enhance your canvas wall art with accompanying freestanding or table sculpture, selecting sculpture that has linear, color or thematic similarities to the artwork. A grouping of stone, metal or realistic resin sculpture over a sleek console or a tall sculpture in the corner is an easy way to link the canvas wall art to other elements within the room.

 Select a predominant color in decorative wall art and repeat it in upholstery, throw pillows, lamps and lampshades and table top accessories. Chunky raised nap fabrics will add texture and depth to the space, especially when various patterns are mixed and solid colors are used to pull the palette together.

 Provide a balancing influence on the space by uniting everything with hints of black. From borders on an area rug, to trim on window shades and treatments, or the crevices in wine Abstract Wall Art, a little black goes a long way and keeps a mix of colors from looking chaotic.

 When a living space is visually connected to a foyer or entry, repeat the accent colors of the living space in the foyer to create harmony from one space to the other. A large piece of canvas wall art in living room space can be echoed with a small grouping of a related design in the foyer. Display a trio of canvases on or try vertical canvas accented with a pair of modern wall sconces staggered to one side.

 Abstract Canvas Wall Art in the Bedroom Create an outstanding focal point in the bedroom by replacing an ordinary headboard with extraordinary wall hangings mounted above the bed. A few evenly spaced stretch canvas panels will bring a graphic impact of form and color. Draw emphasis to the colors in the canvas with your choice of throw pillows and comforter in various textures and shapes. Top simple night stands on either side of your bed with a clear glass bubble lamp stand and colors that exude an accent color for a fun, decorator impact.
