With the New Year fast encroaching, our homes will all soon be filled with guests spilling out of every entrance. Now is the time to get decorating and freshen up any rooms looking a little drab. New Year, new home, anyone?
One easy way to go about this, if you’re not looking to go in big with removable wallpaper or a fresh lick of paint, is to invest in some quality framed art.
Now, when a lot of people go to redesign their walls, the common instinct is to leisurely purchase items and then go with what feels right. And, while we thoroughly support examining art by what resonates with you, people often overlook the fact that you must also consider the scale – not only if they fit your designated wall space, but also how well your awesomely cool art prints fit together.
It’s also worth considering whether you want a uniform look, with matching frames, or whether you want each piece to emphasise its individual personality and have them mismatched. If you’re hesitant over drilling holes in your walls, you can opt for a lower commitment hanging, and use command strips instead. These will keep your walls unscathed, plus you can then regularly have a swap-out of art around your house to keep things fresh!
Without further ado, here are our top picks for cool art prints for every room, so you can bid adieu to those tired walls forever.

If you love all things vintage, make sure your bathroom is in keeping with the rest of your home with a retro design. Vintage is one of the most popular trends of the last decade that just keeps on growing.
Pick your vintage bathroom style: country chic with clashing floral prints and feminine accessories, paired-back neutrals with shabby chic details, or pretty pastels with a modern edge. Each of these themes will give an entirely different result, but they will all look fabulous in any vintage-themed home.
We recommend At The Beach by Sisi and Seb, this aesthetic hails from the ‘90s, emitting safe and wholesome vibes, when everything felt so much simpler. With a filter that evokes the subtle nostalgia of film photography, it can slip into a more modern, clean bathroom without needing the whole space to be vintage, too. Being more of a versatile piece, it’s simply timeless.

Kitchen trends are a bit of an elusive thing – unlike beauty and fashion where phases begin and end in a flash, what’s hot in kitchens is more gradual and subtle.
However, when trends appear, they’re no less striking than their stylish counterparts, plus they come with the reassurance that they’ll last through the various tests of time.
Got hooked on the cottagecore trend lately? This trend blew up over the pandemic, as people reconnected with nature and found its inherent joys.
