Quick Answer

To choose a wall art set, first measure your wall space, then decide on a style that matches your decor, and finally consider whether you want a framed look or are comfortable with unframed prints.

Consider Your Wall Space and Layout

Before you buy, measure the wall where you plan to hang the art. A large set like the Via Crucis Set of 15 prints needs a wider expanse, while a single 8" x 10" print works well in a cozy nook. Think about the visual weight: a group of small prints can create a gallery wall, but if you have limited space, a single larger piece might be more impactful.

Also consider the height at which you'll hang the art. Eye level is a good rule of thumb for most rooms, but if the art is going above a piece of furniture, leave about 6-8 inches of breathing room between the top of the furniture and the bottom of the art.

Match the Style to Your Decor

Your wall art should complement the existing style of your home. If your decor is modern and minimalist, a sleek silver-toned piece like the Silver Last Supper can add a contemporary accent. For a more traditional or rustic look, laminated prints with classic religious imagery might blend better.

Don't forget about color. Laminated prints often have a glossy finish that can reflect light, while unframed paper art has a softer, matte appearance. Consider the wall color and the room's lighting to ensure the art stands out without clashing.

Framed or Unframed?

Unframed prints offer flexibility: you can choose your own frame to match your decor, or you can hang them as-is for a casual look. However, unframed prints may be more susceptible to damage and can look less polished if not mounted properly. If you prefer a ready-to-hang solution, consider a framed piece or a set that includes a frame.

Laminated prints provide a layer of protection against moisture and dust, making them a practical choice for kitchens or bathrooms. But the glossy finish can cause glare in bright rooms, so test the lighting before committing.

Decision Rules for Choosing Wall Art

  • Measure first: Measure the wall space and decide if you want a single statement piece or a collection. For a set like the Via Crucis, ensure you have enough width to space the prints evenly. Use painter's tape to outline the area on the wall before buying.
  • Choose a style that fits: Match the art to your home's decor. Modern rooms may benefit from a sleek piece like the Silver Last Supper, while traditional spaces often suit laminated prints. Take a photo of your room to compare how the art will look.
  • Decide on framing: If you want a polished, ready-to-hang look, choose a framed piece or plan to frame an unframed print. If you prefer a casual, flexible option, unframed prints are fine, but be prepared to mount them properly. Consider the cost of framing when budgeting for unframed art.
