The bedroom is considered to be the most important room in a house by some and quite rightly so because the bedroom is that one place at home where you conveniently get to rest and sleep. Even the busiest of persons still need a place to unwind and get refreshed; that place is the bedroom.

The bedroom should be your haven and an epitome of tranquility and comfort away from all the noise and stress. The atmosphere of your bedroom while being seemingly inconsequential can determine a lot including your wellness and state of mind and that is why it is important to careful in determining how you want your bedroom to look before getting started.

There are a few things that help to determine the mood of your bedroom ranging from the colors of the bedroom, the decoration in the bedroom, the amount of light and color of light coming into the bedroom, and usually, the selection of decoration for the bedroom is different from the decoration for other rooms in the house.

Art is an important decoration for the house as it not only defines the personality of the owner but also helps to design the space and the type of art to be chosen for the bedroom has to be distinct from any other room in the house because the mood for each room in the house differs and as such the right art for the right atmosphere has to be selected.

The style, the theme, the color, the size of the art, where you place the art, and your inspiration are all important in creating the mood you want in the bedroom.

For the bedroom, an atmosphere of peace, quiet, tranquility, calm, and relaxation is certainly the mood you want to create because most of the work done in the bedroom is to sleep which is different from the other rooms in the house.

The Bedroom Art Print Style

Abstract art prints, contemporary art prints, landscapes, ocean views, and desaturated photos are a great choices for the bedroom. These styles of art pieces help give the bedroom a calm and serene mood. The ocean view puts you in a meditative state and has an inviting feel which is just perfect for the bedroom. The choice of the style to go with can be made based on inspiration as well. Whatever style you decide on be sure to ensure that it complements what you already have.

When you come across an art style, you can try to get to know the artist and the history behind that particular art style. That way you get to understand the style better and why you should or should not select it for your bedroom.

The Location Of The Art Print

An art print should not just be placed anywhere and pounded in with a nail. Especially since you are going to purchase amazing art prints that you love, the least you can do is to give yourself the satisfaction of putting it where it should be properly placed. Although the architectural design of the bedroom matters and may require you to consider something different, the art print should ideally be hung right over your head on the bed or on the wall opposite the bed.

The arrangement of the room can also be worked on to align the furniture and other things in the bedroom to ensure the bedroom is beautifully arranged.

The position of the windows as well as important in setting up a location for the art because of the amount of lightning that comes in through the window. Too much sun rays usually affect art prints depending especially on the color of the art print and in a case where too much sunlight cannot be avoided, you can protect your art print by having it framed with specialized UV acrylic plexiglass and preventing possible fading.

The Size Of The Art Print

Of equal importance is the size of the art print you want to go with for the bedroom. There are various sizes of art prints; large scale, medium scale, and small scale.

• Large scale art pieces from about 80 to 100 centimeters in length are the ideal size of art to be hung in the bedroom and they should be placed at eye level.
• Medium-scale art pieces from 60 to 70 centimeters in length can be grouped or stand alone in the bedroom.
• Small scale art pieces from 45 to 59 centimeters in length would need to be grouped in pairs and that is why they should be kept at a minimum in the bedroom to avoid a cluster of art prints that can make the bedroom look cumbersome and distracting.

Color Of The Bedroom Art Print

The color of the art print selected for the bedroom is very vital as it sets the tone for the mood of the room. Your choice of bold or cool color, a bright or vague color goes a long way in creating the kind of atmosphere you want.

You do not want to create a conflicting atmosphere by combining the wrong match of colors and that’s why it is best to choose an art print that has a similar shade to the already existing room color. Remember that your art print is for the bedroom which should maintain a calm and tranquil atmosphere. If you are at a loss on the appropriate color choice, it is best to always go with black or white.

Different colors have their meaning which you can put into consideration when selecting a color for your art print;

• Red is for energy, passion, and danger
• Orange is for creativity, youth, and enthusiasm
• Yellow is for happiness, hope, and spontaneity
• Green is for nature, growth, and harmony
• Blue is for calm, trust, and intelligence
• Purple is for luxury, mystery, and spirituality
• Pink is for feminity, playfulness, and romance
• Brown is for wholesomeness, warmth, and honesty
• Black is for elegance, power, and sophistication
• White is for minimalism and simplicity
• Gray is for professionalism, formality, and conventionality
• Multicolor is for fun, diversity, and optimism
• Gold, silver, and bronze are for wealth, prosperity, and success 

The Theme Of An Art Print

Art is always created with a theme in mind. The artist does not just produce an artwork out of the ordinary without a concept. Simply put, every art print has a theme and as such in your selection of an art print for the bedroom, you should have a theme in your mind that you are looking out for. Even if you do not have a theme in mind, seeing different themes of various art prints would leave you with different options to make your choice. Having a theme already just helps you to be able to easily eliminate the different options and make the best choice.

In case you are having a hard time figuring out what you want the theme of your art print to be, just ask yourself these questions; when I walk into my bedroom, what’s the first thing I’ll love to see hanging up on the wall? Or when I wake up in the morning on a sunny or rainy day, what’s the first thing I’ll want to see on my wall? Or what is the last picture I want to stare up and see before I sleep at night?

 
Most importantly though, in your choice of selection of art styles for the bedroom, you must make your choice of selection based on one that you love. Remember that your choice of art should also be a reflection of your personality and you surely do not want to have something you have no love for hanging in your bedroom because the very sight of that would not give you satisfaction. You don’t want to waste your money on the wrong art piece that brings relaxation or helps you to sleep better. Your choice is still what matters.
