LARGE PAINTINGS FOR THE LIVING ROOM

Choosing a large painting for your living room is an important decision. A large painting helps set the style or emphasize the atmosphere you want in your living room. They say you shouldn't


choose a painting based on the sofa, but I would argue that it makes perfect sense to choose a painting that matches your decor. This way, you bring out the best in the painting and emphasize the atmosphere you want in your living room.

HOW DO YOU CHOOSE A LARGE PAINTING FOR YOUR LIVING ROOM?

When choosing a large painting, it can sometimes require a little extra thought. It's important to choose correctly, as a large painting is something you will often have hanging for many years.

If you live far from Copenhagen, you have the option to buy my large paintings online. I pay for the shipping of the painting to you, but it's important that we are as sure as possible that you are choosing the right painting. If you are in doubt about your choice, I recommend that you send me a photo of your living room with measurements of the wall where you are thinking of hanging the painting. I will then use Photoshop to place the painting on your wall, giving you an impression of how the painting will look in your living room. Here you will get a sense of the size and colours. Remember that when you see colours on your screen, they will not be displayed with complete accuracy. The colours vary depending on the light you have in the living room. A couple of times a year, I also travel to Funen and Jutland and am happy to stop by with a selection of paintings if it fits into my schedule. Then you can try out the painting on the wall in your own living room. You are welcome to write to me to find out when I will be making my next trip.

If you live near Copenhagen, I recommend you visit my studio in Østerbro to see my paintings. Here you have the opportunity to truly experience the paintings and get a feel for the colours and atmosphere. Even if you have visited my website first, and perhaps fallen in love with one or two paintings, it's not always those that speak to you most when you stand in front of them. In my studio, you have the opportunity to choose one or more paintings that you would like to try at home on the wall in your own living room. If you don't have a car, or the paintings are too large for your car, I am happy to help with transport. You can also contact me and ask me to come to your home with a selection of paintings. I will then help you see what suits your wall and how the painting should hang.

DECORATE THE LIVING ROOM WITH A LARGE PAINTING ABOVE THE SOFA

Hanging a large painting above your sofa in the living room is a beautiful classic solution. A large painting is often hung above a sofa to unify the space where people relax. An area with a sofa, coffee table, rug, lamps, and for example, plants creates a cozy area where one can relax and feel at peace. Above a sofa, most people choose a rectangular painting that matches the length of the sofa. Above a smaller sofa, a painting of 100x150 cm will often be the right choice. You can see my paintings in 100x150 cm here. If your sofa is larger, paintings in 110x180 cm are often the right choice. If you are in doubt about which size to choose, you are always welcome to contact me.

If the budget doesn't allow for a large painting, you can consider art posters for the living room.
