Leaning art: 4 Guidelines to make it work - hi..
Home Design,The house is a sanctuary for all that occupies. Every spot within the house is required to service each family member. A father needs a comfortable workplace, a mother also needs an efficient kitchen and a pleasant children's room.With these considerations we give an idea of Leaning art: 4 Guidelines to make it workThe proper selection of the house is the key to determining how well the inhabitants reside in their palaces. No matter how vast it is important to be at home
Art warms a home, makes it interesting, provides topics for conversation and contemplation , adds colour, the list goes on indefinitely. There are various ways to display art; some are more successful than others. One option is leaning art against a wall rather than hanging it, but this display option isn't always successful for a variety of reasons. If you want to try leaning art, consider the following factors.
1. Scale - Choose artwork large enough to read from standing or sitting position
The size of a piece of art in comparison to the space and objects around it usually determines successful placement. This painting fits the bill perfectly.

Large scale images work best

When you want to lean work on the floor it needs to be large enough to observe from standing position and bold in imagery so it can be read at a distance. Even the dog get this! The photo on the right works better than the the art to the left of it because the image is tiny. Perfect scale and beautiful work that can still be seen and read while sitting or from other areas of the room.

Bold form and simple composition
source |
The boldness and simplicity of this painting make viewing it easier when leaned on the floor. The objects in front of it enhance the placement and help to anchor it safely. They do not interfere with the reading of the image. Which leads to the next guideline...
2. Layering: Don't cover major parts of an artwork
Layering other objects in front of an artwork is a tricky business. This vignette is successful because the image is large, dark and has quite a bit of space where there are no details. The chair and table lie in areas without too much detail. You don't feel as if you are missing important elements of the work.

Do you want to remove anything here?

There are so many things about this vignette I love, but I want to see all of the artwork and part is hidden by the table and books. Even removing the books would help things considerably. Love the candlesticks and the table, both really work with the artwork.

Successful layering where each image is clearly seen.

Layering art on shelves, consoles, and mantles can be very interesting. It is a way to display smaller pieces to good advantage. While this is a very simple vignette with the branch acting as a consolidating element, it is possible to have more complex collections of objects.
3. Colour scheme: Restrict colour combinations in leaning gallery display
 |
| Limited colour scheme provides cohesion |
There are lots of small pieces in this display but they read as one unit because of the colour cohesiveness. 4. Image: Choose the right image for the space
 |
| Art with simple bold form |
I think the work that layers best in a vignette has bold form and colour. It can compete with the other objects for your viewing attention.
Now it's your turn. What do you think of this arrangement?
Such is the discussion of Leaning art: 4 Guidelines to make it work,that I can share on this occasion, hopefully it can help you find a suitable home design.
