- Creating a home office in your living room requires integrating the desk and chair with the room's existing wood tones and colors to maintain a cohesive look.
- Using a mix of photographs and different types of art, such as paintings and wall sculptures, can create a harmonious and curated feel in your space.
- When arranging artwork in a large room, consider using a large series of pieces and hanging them at an optimal height of 60 inches from the floor to the center of the piece.
