Strategic placement is key. Optimal spots include above the bed, along accent walls, or as a focal point above furniture pieces. As well as wall art in your bedroom you'll also need at least one mirror. Decide on where the mirror should go first and then use the wall art to fill the other walls. Think about how the light changes during the day as you'll want your framed prints to be covered in natural light at the key parts of the day. Ensure all your artworks are at eye-level viewing to make sure they have the biggest impact.

Tailor the size to the wall dimensions. Larger walls can accommodate oversized pieces for a striking effect, whereas smaller walls may benefit from a cluster of smaller artworks. If you're worried about having one oversized framed print then select to have two or three smaller prints, this gives you the impact of a large focal point without the risk of being overwhelming.

Consider serene landscapes, calming abstracts, botanical prints, or minimalist compositions to evoke tranquility and relaxation. It's also best to keep to a small number of art styles, this avoids the space becoming too crowded.

Make the most of your large walls with grand artworks, murals, or curated gallery displays to fill the expanse without overwhelming the room's aesthetics.

Depending on the size of the room it's likely you'll want something on every wall but it doesn't have to be wall art. On the wall which gets the most natural light you'll want a mirror, then the other walls should be filled with a mix of framed prints, personal photos and other bits of wall decor. If your bedroom is on the smaller size then leave one wall empty to avoid the space feeling overwhelmed.

Accent walls can transform a room if done tastefully. In 2024 the trend is focused on subtle patterns, textures, or monochromatic schemes for a modern touch. Not every bedroom needs an accent wall so avoid using them in every room in your home.
