Shopping & Orders
Find answers about ordering, production, shipping, materials, custom requests, and what to expect after you place your order.
Do we offer custom sizes?
Yes. Many of our designs can be printed in additional sizes beyond those listed on the product page. If you're decorating an unusually sized wall or already have a frame that requires a specific print size, contact us before placing your order.
We will check whether your preferred dimensions can be produced without affecting image quality or cropping important parts of the artwork. For many designs we can also recommend the closest standard size if an exact match isn't available.
If you're unsure which size would work best in your room, we're happy to help you choose one based on your wall dimensions and furniture.
What materials do we use?
We use premium 190–200 gsm matte paper for our paper prints and high-quality artist canvas for our canvas prints.
Our print partners use professional archival-quality inks that produce rich colors, sharp details, and excellent longevity. These water-based inks are non-toxic and designed for indoor environments, making them a safe choice for homes, bedrooms, children's rooms, and offices.
Every print is produced using modern professional printing equipment to ensure consistent color reproduction and long-lasting results.
Are frames included?
No. Frames shown in our product photos are for styling purposes only and are not included unless specifically stated in the product description.
Paper prints and rolled canvas prints are carefully packaged and shipped unframed in sturdy mailing tubes to protect them during transit. This allows you to choose a frame that perfectly matches your interior.
Stretched canvas prints arrive professionally wrapped around a 1.25-inch wooden stretcher frame with mirrored printed edges. They are ready to hang immediately and are designed to look beautiful without an additional outer frame. If you prefer a more finished appearance, you can add a decorative floating frame after delivery.
When will I receive my order?
Every piece is printed specifically for you after your order is placed.
Production typically takes 3–4 business days, after which your order is shipped from one of our print partners located as close as possible to your delivery destination. This helps reduce shipping time while maintaining consistent print quality.
Delivery usually takes 5–8 business days after dispatch, although international shipments and holiday periods may require a little extra time. Once your order has been shipped, you'll receive tracking information so you can follow its journey.
Where are our orders printed?
To provide faster delivery and reduce international shipping, we work with carefully selected professional print partners in several countries.
Whenever possible, your order is produced at the printing facility closest to your delivery address. This allows us to shorten transit times, reduce the environmental impact of shipping, and maintain consistently high print quality regardless of where you live.
All production partners use professional equipment and carefully calibrated printing processes to ensure that every artwork meets the same quality standards.
Can I change or cancel my order?
Because every print is made to order, we begin production shortly after your purchase is placed.
If you need to change your shipping address, update your order, or cancel it, please contact us as soon as possible. We'll always do our best to help if production hasn't started yet.
Once printing has begun, changes or cancellations are usually no longer possible because your artwork is being created specifically for you.
What if my order arrives damaged?
Although damage during shipping is uncommon, we'll always help if something goes wrong.
If your order arrives damaged or if you notice a printing defect, contact us within 7 days of delivery and include clear photos of both the artwork and the packaging. This allows us to quickly investigate the issue with our production partner.
In most cases we'll arrange a replacement at no additional cost.
Can I return my order?
Since every print is produced specifically for your order, we don't accept returns for change-of-mind purchases or incorrect size selections.
However, your satisfaction is very important to us. If your order arrives damaged, contains a manufacturing defect, or you receive the wrong item, we'll work with you to resolve the issue as quickly as possible by arranging a replacement or another appropriate solution.
Will the colors look exactly like on my screen?
We carefully prepare every artwork to achieve accurate and vibrant printed colors, but slight differences between your screen and the final print are normal.
Every monitor, phone, and tablet displays colors differently depending on brightness, calibration, and screen technology. Room lighting can also influence how artwork appears once it's hanging on your wall.
While exact color matching across every device isn't possible, our professional printing process is designed to produce colors that closely reflect the original artwork and maintain a consistent, high-quality appearance.
Choosing Wall Art
Discover how to choose artwork that fits your room, complements your décor, and creates the atmosphere you want. From sizing and placement to colors and interior styles, these tips will help you decorate with confidence.
How do I choose the right size of wall art?
Choosing the right size is just as important as choosing the artwork itself. Even a beautiful print can look out of place if it's too small for a large wall or too large for a compact space.
A good guideline is that artwork should occupy around 60–75% of the width of the furniture beneath it. For example, if your sofa is 240 cm (95 inches) wide, the artwork or gallery set should ideally be around 145–180 cm (57–71 inches) wide.
Large empty walls usually benefit from oversized artwork or coordinated sets of two or three prints. Smaller artwork works better in hallways, reading corners, or as part of a gallery wall.
Don't be afraid of large artwork in small rooms. One well-proportioned statement piece often makes a room feel more spacious than several small frames scattered across the wall.
How do I choose wall art that matches my room?
Start by looking at your room's size, natural light, existing color palette, and decorating style. The right artwork should complement your space while creating the atmosphere you want.
- Small rooms often feel larger with light-colored, minimalist, or landscape artwork. Neutral tones, soft textures, and open compositions help create an airy, spacious feel without overwhelming the room.
- Large rooms can handle oversized statement pieces, gallery walls, or artwork with bold colors and strong contrast. Larger designs help fill empty wall space and create a natural focal point.
- Rooms with limited natural light usually benefit from brighter artwork with warm neutrals, soft whites, beige, muted greens, or gentle earth tones. These colors help make the space feel lighter and more inviting.
- Bright, sun-filled rooms offer more flexibility. Both neutral artwork and vibrant designs work beautifully, allowing you to introduce deeper colors, dramatic contrasts, or expressive statement pieces.
- If your furniture and décor already have bold colors or patterns, choose artwork with a simpler composition or a color palette that ties the room together rather than competing for attention.
- If your interior is mostly neutral, artwork is a great way to introduce personality. A colorful abstract piece or a striking landscape can become the room's main visual feature without overwhelming the space.
The goal isn't to match every color perfectly. Instead, choose artwork that complements your interior while adding balance, depth, and visual interest.
Should I choose canvas or paper prints?
Both options offer excellent print quality, so the best choice depends on how you plan to display your artwork.
Paper prints are ideal if you already have frames or want complete freedom to choose your own frame style and color. They work particularly well in gallery walls and interiors where matching existing décor is important.
Stretched canvas prints offer a more contemporary, gallery-inspired appearance. Because the artwork wraps around the edges and arrives stretched over a wooden frame, it's ready to hang immediately without requiring an additional outer frame.
If you're looking for a clean, modern statement piece, canvas is often the better choice. If you enjoy customizing your décor or prefer traditional framing, paper prints provide greater flexibility.
How high should I hang wall art?
The position of your artwork has a significant impact on how balanced a room feels.
As a general guideline, the center of the artwork should sit approximately 145–152 cm (57–60 inches) from the floor, which corresponds to average eye level.
When hanging artwork above furniture such as a sofa, bed, or console table, leave approximately 15–25 cm (6–10 inches) between the furniture and the bottom edge of the artwork. Leaving too much empty space can make the artwork feel disconnected from the furniture.
For gallery walls, think of the entire arrangement as one large artwork rather than placing each frame individually.
Should I buy one large artwork or a gallery wall?
There isn't one correct choice—it depends on your space and the atmosphere you want to create.
A single oversized artwork creates a clean, modern focal point and works especially well above sofas, beds, dining tables, or fireplaces. It makes a room feel more open and uncluttered, which is why interior designers often recommend oversized pieces for contemporary homes.
A gallery wall is ideal if you want to tell a story, display multiple artworks, or add more personality to a room. Carefully arranged sets of two or three coordinated prints can provide the same visual impact as one large piece while offering more flexibility in style and composition.
As a general guideline, larger walls usually benefit from fewer, larger artworks, while smaller walls can accommodate grouped arrangements. The most important factor is maintaining balanced proportions between the artwork and the furniture beneath it.
Can I mix different art styles in the same room?
Absolutely. Mixing styles often creates interiors that feel more personal and thoughtfully curated rather than overly coordinated.
The easiest way to combine different styles is by keeping one element consistent. This could be a shared color palette, similar frame style, common subject matter, or repeating shapes throughout the artwork.
For example, abstract art can work beautifully alongside landscapes or botanical prints if they share similar colors. Modern interiors also benefit from mixing textured neutral artwork with one or two colorful statement pieces.
The key is balance. Let one style dominate while using the second style as an accent instead of giving every piece equal visual weight.
Which colors make a room feel bigger or cozier?
Color has a surprisingly strong influence on how spacious a room feels.
Light neutrals, soft beige, warm whites, pale gray, muted greens, and atmospheric landscapes tend to make rooms feel brighter, calmer, and more open. Artwork with generous negative space also contributes to a sense of openness.
Darker colors, rich earth tones, deep blues, and high-contrast artwork create warmth, intimacy, and visual depth. These are excellent choices for large living rooms, dining rooms, or spaces where you want a cozy atmosphere.
Neither approach is right or wrong. The best choice depends on whether you want the room to feel larger and lighter or warmer and more intimate.
How do I choose wall art I'll still love years from now?
Choosing wall art you'll love for years starts with focusing on your personal style rather than short-term decorating trends. While trendy colors and patterns can look exciting today, artwork that reflects your taste is much more likely to remain meaningful over time.
A good approach is to choose designs with balanced compositions, timeless color palettes, and subjects that create the atmosphere you want in your home. Neutral abstract art, calming landscapes, botanical prints, and modern geometric designs are all versatile choices that complement many interior styles and continue to look relevant as furniture, wall colors, and décor evolve.
It's also worth thinking about how the artwork makes you feel. Pieces that bring a sense of calm, inspiration, or happiness tend to have lasting appeal because they're connected to your personal preferences rather than current design trends.
If you're unsure where to begin, start with artwork that works well in a variety of interiors and can easily move with you from one home or room to another. Choosing quality prints in styles you genuinely enjoy is one of the best ways to create a home that feels personal and timeless.
Canvas vs Paper
Not sure whether to choose a paper print or canvas? Learn the differences in appearance, framing, durability, and where each option works best.
What is the difference between paper and canvas prints?
Although the same artwork can be printed on both materials, the finished result has a different look and feel.
Paper prints have a smooth surface that highlights fine details, crisp lines, and subtle color transitions. They are designed to be displayed inside a picture frame, allowing you to choose a frame style that matches your décor.
Canvas prints have a lightly textured surface that gives the artwork a more gallery-inspired appearance. Because stretched canvas wraps around the wooden frame, the artwork continues around the edges, creating a clean, modern look without requiring an additional outer frame.
Neither option is higher quality than the other—they simply create different visual effects. The best choice depends on the atmosphere you want to achieve in your home.
Which option is better for my interior style?
Both materials work beautifully in a wide range of interiors, but they create different impressions.
Canvas prints are especially popular in modern, contemporary, minimalist, Japandi, and Scandinavian interiors where clean lines and simple styling are preferred. Because they don't require an additional frame, they create a relaxed gallery-style appearance that feels modern and uncluttered.
Paper prints are often chosen for traditional, transitional, farmhouse, classic, and eclectic interiors where the frame becomes an important decorative element. Changing the frame can completely transform the look of the artwork and help it blend with different decorating styles.
If you enjoy updating your décor over time, paper prints offer greater flexibility. If you prefer artwork that's ready to display immediately, canvas is usually the more convenient choice.
Which option creates a more premium look?
Both paper and canvas prints are considered premium wall décor when professionally printed. The difference lies in the style rather than the quality.
Canvas prints often create the appearance of original gallery artwork because the image continues around the edges and the artwork hangs without glass. This gives walls a clean, contemporary look that's especially popular in modern homes.
Paper prints offer a more refined and customizable appearance because the frame becomes part of the overall design. A carefully selected frame can make the same artwork feel classic, elegant, minimalist, or luxurious depending on your interior.
Rather than asking which option is more premium, it's more helpful to ask which style better suits your home.
Which option shows colors and details more clearly?
Both materials are printed using professional equipment and high-quality inks, but they display artwork slightly differently.
Paper has a perfectly smooth surface, making it ideal for artwork with intricate details, fine lines, typography, or delicate textures. Colors often appear especially crisp because there is no surface texture.
Canvas introduces a subtle natural texture that softens the image slightly and creates more depth. Many customers appreciate this effect because it gives artwork a more painterly, gallery-inspired appearance rather than the look of a traditional poster.
In everyday viewing, both options deliver excellent image quality, and most customers choose based on appearance rather than sharpness alone.
Which option is easier to maintain?
Both paper and canvas prints require very little maintenance when displayed indoors.
Framed paper prints are protected by the frame and, if glass or acrylic is used, the print itself is shielded from dust and accidental contact. Cleaning usually involves wiping the glass rather than the artwork.
Canvas prints don't require glass, making them free from reflections. Dust can usually be removed gently with a soft, dry microfiber cloth. As with any artwork, both paper and canvas should be kept away from excessive moisture and prolonged direct sunlight to preserve their appearance for many years.
Which option is better if I plan to redecorate in the future?
If you enjoy changing the look of your home, paper prints offer the greatest flexibility.
Replacing the frame is an easy way to give the same artwork an entirely new character. A simple oak frame creates a Scandinavian feel, while black, white, or metallic frames can completely change the style without replacing the print itself.
Canvas prints provide a more permanent gallery-style presentation. They require no additional framing and are ideal if you already know the style you want to achieve.
Neither choice limits your decorating options, but paper prints generally make it easier to refresh a room without purchasing new artwork.
Can I order the same artwork on both paper and canvas?
Yes. Most of our designs are available as both paper prints and canvas prints, allowing you to choose the format that best fits your space.
Many customers select paper prints when they already own matching frames or want complete freedom over the final presentation. Others prefer stretched canvas because it arrives ready to hang and creates a clean, modern look immediately.
Since the artwork itself remains the same, your decision comes down to personal preference, your decorating style, and how you'd like to display the piece.
What's the difference between rolled and stretched canvas prints?
The main difference is how the canvas arrives and what you need to do before displaying it.
Stretched canvas prints are professionally mounted on sturdy wooden stretcher bars before shipping. The edges are finished with a mirrored reflection of the artwork, creating a clean gallery-style look that's ready to hang as soon as it arrives. No additional stretching is required, and an outer frame is completely optional.
Rolled canvas prints are shipped without stretcher bars. They need to be stretched onto a wooden frame before they can be displayed, either by a local framing shop or as a DIY project. This option is often preferred by customers who want custom framing, easier international shipping, or sizes that are only available as rolled canvas.
Both options feature the same artwork and high-quality canvas material. The only difference is the presentation: stretched canvas is ready to hang immediately, while rolled canvas gives you more flexibility in how the artwork is finished and displayed.
Do canvas prints need an additional frame?
Not necessarily. Whether you add an outer frame depends on the look you want to achieve and how you plan to display your artwork.
Our stretched canvas prints arrive professionally mounted on sturdy wooden stretcher bars and are ready to hang immediately. The edges are finished with mirrored or wrapped artwork, creating a clean, gallery-style appearance that looks beautiful without any additional framing.
Many customers choose to display stretched canvas exactly as it is, while others prefer to add a floating frame for a more refined or contemporary finish. Neither option is right or wrong—it simply comes down to personal preference and your interior style.
If your artwork has a minimalist design or light-colored edges, leaving the sides visible can create a clean, modern look. For artwork with bold colors or designs that extend close to the edges, some homeowners prefer a floating frame to create a more defined border.
If you order a rolled canvas, it is supplied without stretcher bars, giving you complete flexibility. You can have it stretched onto a wooden frame, place it in a traditional picture frame, or choose another display method that best suits your space.
Decorating Tips
Practical decorating advice to help you choose, place, and style wall art with confidence.
How do interior designers choose wall art?
Interior designers rarely choose artwork as the final finishing touch. Instead, they use it as one of the key elements that defines the mood and personality of a room.
The first consideration is proportion. Artwork should feel balanced with the furniture beneath it rather than appearing too small or overwhelming. Designers also look for a consistent color palette, choosing pieces that either repeat colors already present in the room or introduce a complementary accent that ties the space together.
Style is equally important. Modern interiors often work best with abstract or minimalist artwork, while organic modern spaces pair beautifully with landscapes, botanical prints, and natural textures. Rather than matching every decorative item, designers aim to create harmony between furniture, lighting, textiles, and artwork.
Most importantly, professional interiors use artwork to create a focal point. A well-chosen piece naturally draws attention and helps define the character of the entire room.
How can wall art make a room look more expensive?
Wall art is one of the simplest ways to give a room a more refined, professionally designed appearance.
Larger pieces often create a stronger visual impact than several small decorations because they immediately establish a focal point. Choosing artwork with a cohesive color palette also helps the entire room feel more intentional and balanced.
Quality framing, proper placement, and leaving enough empty space around the artwork all contribute to a premium look. Rather than filling every wall, interior designers often prefer fewer statement pieces that have room to stand out.
Artwork doesn't need to be expensive to elevate a space. Choosing designs that complement the room's colors, furniture, and overall style often has a much greater impact than simply purchasing costly decor.
How do I decorate a large empty wall?
Large blank walls often feel intimidating, but they also provide one of the biggest opportunities to transform a room.
One approach is to use a single oversized artwork that immediately becomes the room's focal point. This works especially well above sofas, beds, fireplaces, or dining tables, where a large piece creates balance without making the space feel cluttered.
Another option is a coordinated gallery wall using two or three matching prints. Choosing artwork with a consistent style or color palette creates visual interest while maintaining a clean, organized appearance.
Avoid placing artwork that is too small on a large wall. Generous proportions help the space feel intentional and prevent the wall from looking unfinished.
What are the biggest mistakes people make when decorating with wall art?
One of the most common mistakes is choosing artwork that's too small for the available wall space. Small pieces surrounded by large empty areas often make a room feel unfinished rather than balanced.
Another mistake is hanging artwork too high. As a general guideline, the center of the artwork should be close to eye level, unless it's positioned above furniture where slightly lower placement usually looks more natural.
Many people also try to match artwork exactly to every color in the room. Interior designers typically recommend coordinating with the overall color palette instead of searching for perfect matches. This creates a more relaxed and sophisticated look.
Finally, avoid overcrowding walls with too many decorative items. Leaving some empty space allows artwork to stand out and gives the room a calmer, more polished appearance.
How do I make my home look professionally styled?
Professional interiors usually follow a simple principle: everything works together without looking overly coordinated.
Choose a consistent decorating style, repeat a few key colors throughout the room, and use artwork that supports the overall atmosphere rather than competing for attention. Large statement pieces often create a cleaner and more elegant look than many small decorations.
Layering different textures—such as wood, fabric, plants, ceramics, and artwork—also adds depth without creating visual clutter.
Most importantly, avoid filling every available surface. Well-designed interiors include negative space, allowing each decorative element to have room to breathe and making the entire room feel more balanced.
Should wall art match the furniture?
Wall art doesn't need to match your furniture exactly, but it should feel connected to the overall design of the room.
Instead of searching for artwork in the exact same colors as your sofa or chairs, look for pieces that share similar tones or complement the existing palette. Repeating one or two accent colors throughout the room often creates a more natural and cohesive appearance.
Contrast can also be effective. Light artwork can brighten dark furniture, while bold artwork can add energy to neutral spaces. The goal isn't perfect matching—it's creating visual balance between the furniture, walls, textiles, and decor.
How can wall art change the atmosphere of a room?
Artwork has a significant influence on how a room feels because color, subject matter, and composition all affect the overall mood.
Soft landscapes, neutral abstracts, and botanical prints often create a calm and relaxing atmosphere, making them popular choices for bedrooms and quiet living spaces. Bold abstract designs, expressive brushstrokes, and vibrant colors tend to add energy and personality, making them well suited to dining rooms, home offices, or creative spaces.
The size of the artwork also matters. Large statement pieces create confidence and drama, while smaller coordinated arrangements often make a room feel more intimate and welcoming.
Choosing artwork that reflects the atmosphere you want to experience every day is often more important than following current decorating trends.
How do I decorate with neutral wall art without making the room look boring?
Neutral interiors don't have to feel plain. The key is creating contrast through texture, shape, and layering rather than relying only on bold colors.
Abstract compositions, organic forms, botanical subjects, and landscapes add visual interest while maintaining a calm and timeless look. Mixing different materials—such as wood, linen, ceramics, woven textiles, and plants—also helps neutral spaces feel warm and inviting.
Rather than choosing artwork that's identical to the wall color, select pieces with subtle variations in tone and depth. Small differences in beige, cream, taupe, black, or earthy shades create dimension without overwhelming the room.
Can oversized wall art make a small room look bigger?
Yes. A common misconception is that small rooms require only small artwork, but oversized pieces often make compact spaces feel more open.
A single large artwork reduces visual clutter by creating one clear focal point instead of many competing elements. This gives the eye a place to rest and can make the room appear more spacious.
Choosing artwork with lighter colors, open compositions, or landscape scenes can further enhance the feeling of depth. The key is selecting artwork that's proportional to the furniture rather than simply choosing the smallest size available.
How do I choose wall art for an open-concept living space?
Open-concept homes work best when the artwork creates visual connections between different functional areas without making every space look identical.
Choose pieces that share a similar style, color palette, or mood while allowing each area to have its own focal point. For example, the living room might feature a large statement artwork, while the dining area displays smaller coordinating pieces in the same collection.
Repeating complementary colors throughout the space helps create continuity while preventing the interior from feeling repetitive. Consistent artwork can make open layouts feel cohesive while still giving each zone its own identity.
Choosing Art by Room
Discover practical tips for choosing wall art that complements every room in your home, from living rooms and bedrooms to home offices and dining spaces.
How do I choose wall art for my living room?
The living room is often the largest shared space in a home, making wall art one of its most important design elements. Start by considering the size of your wall and the furniture beneath it. Artwork should feel proportional to the sofa or console rather than appearing too small or oversized.
Choose pieces that reflect the atmosphere you want to create. Neutral abstract art and landscapes create a calm, inviting environment, while colorful contemporary artwork adds energy and personality. If you have a large wall, an oversized statement piece or a coordinated set of prints usually creates the strongest visual impact.
What wall art looks best above a sofa?
Artwork above a sofa should feel balanced with both the furniture and the surrounding wall. As a general guideline, the artwork should be approximately two-thirds to three-quarters the width of the sofa.
Large single artworks work beautifully in modern interiors, while sets of two or three coordinated prints create a more structured gallery-style look. Avoid hanging artwork too high—the center should remain close to eye level when possible, with enough space between the sofa and the artwork to keep everything visually connected.
What kind of wall art works best in a bedroom?
Bedrooms are designed for rest and relaxation, so artwork should help create a peaceful atmosphere. Soft abstract compositions, botanical prints, landscapes, and neutral color palettes are popular choices because they add interest without overwhelming the space.
Rather than following decorating trends, choose artwork that makes you feel comfortable and reflects your personal style. Timeless designs are more likely to remain enjoyable as your décor evolves over the years.
What wall art should I hang above my bed?
Artwork above the bed should act as a gentle focal point while maintaining a sense of balance throughout the room. Oversized prints and coordinated sets often work particularly well because they visually match the width of the bed.
Choose artwork with calming colors and subjects that support a relaxing environment. Abstract neutrals, nature-inspired artwork, and soft landscapes are all excellent options for creating a comfortable bedroom retreat.
What wall art is best for a home office?
The best wall art for a home office depends on the type of atmosphere you want to create. Clean abstract designs, modern minimalist artwork, architectural prints, and landscapes help create a workspace that feels inspiring without becoming distracting.
Neutral tones encourage focus, while carefully chosen accent colors can bring creativity and energy to the room. Selecting artwork that reflects your personality also makes your workspace feel more enjoyable throughout the day.
What wall art works best in a dining room?
Dining rooms benefit from artwork that adds warmth and encourages conversation. Larger pieces often work better than several small decorations because they create a strong focal point without making the room feel busy.
Depending on your interior style, abstract art, landscapes, botanical designs, or colorful contemporary artwork can all work beautifully. The key is choosing artwork that complements the room's lighting, furniture, and overall atmosphere.
Can oversized wall art work in a small room?
Yes. In many cases, one large artwork actually makes a small room feel more spacious than several smaller pieces.
A single oversized print creates one clear focal point, reducing visual clutter and helping the room feel more open. Light colors, open compositions, and landscape artwork can further enhance the sense of space. The most important consideration is choosing artwork that feels proportional to the furniture rather than simply selecting the smallest size available.
How do I decorate with neutral wall art without making the room look boring?
Absolutely. Different rooms can have their own personality while still feeling connected.
Instead of choosing identical artwork for every space, aim for consistency through color palettes, similar framing styles, or complementary design themes. For example, your living room might feature bold abstract artwork, while the bedroom uses softer neutral pieces. This approach creates variety while maintaining a cohesive look throughout your home.
