Blank wall?
Here's how
to style it.

That empty wall has more potential than you think. From one statement print to a beautifully layered gallery wall, here's how to turn blank space into something that feels completely yours.

LET'S GET INSPIRED
THE BEAUTY OF A BLANK CANVAS

Every beautiful wall starts somewhere.

We've all been there. The furniture is in place, the cushions are perfectly arranged, and the room feels almost finished. But there's one thing you keep noticing: that big, empty wall.

Blank walls can feel intimidating. There's so much space, so many possibilities, and suddenly even choosing one art print feels like a big decision.

But here's the thing: you don't need an interior designer, a huge budget or a perfectly coordinated collection to create a beautiful wall. You just need a little inspiration and the freedom to make it your own.

A LITTLE REMINDER

An empty wall isn't a problem to solve. It's an opportunity to express yourself.

01
THE STATEMENT PIECE

Sometimes one print is all you need.

A single beautiful piece can do more for a room than an entire wall of decorations.

If you love a clean, considered look, start with one larger art print. Choose something with enough presence to hold its own in the space, whether that's a bold abstract design, a playful illustration or something beautifully minimal.

Above a sofa, sideboard or bed, a larger piece helps anchor the furniture and gives the room a clear focal point.

THE STYLING TIP

A useful starting point is to choose artwork roughly two-thirds to three-quarters the width of the furniture beneath it. Adjust the scale to suit your own space.

02
BETTER TOGETHER

Two prints. One perfect pair.

Not ready for a full gallery wall? Start with two complementary pieces instead.

Two prints displayed side by side create a beautiful sense of balance. They can be the same size for a polished, symmetrical look, or different sizes for something more relaxed.

Choose designs that share something in common: a colour, a mood, a similar composition or simply a feeling that connects them.

GOOD
THINGS

A shared colour palette can bring two different designs together.

THE STYLING TIP

Keep the spacing between paired prints consistent. Around 5–10 cm is a useful starting point, depending on the size of the artwork.

03
THE GALLERY WALL

Give your wall a little personality.

A gallery wall is your chance to mix different prints, styles and ideas into one beautiful arrangement.

The best gallery walls don't have to match perfectly. In fact, a little contrast often makes them more interesting.

Begin with three pieces you love. Choose one as your centrepiece and build the composition around it. You can always add more artwork as your collection grows.

FOR
YOU

Three prints in a clean, even arrangement. Perfect if you love symmetry.

THE STYLING TIP

Plan your gallery wall on the floor first. This makes it easier to experiment with different layouts before hanging anything.

A CLEO & BLOOM THOUGHT

The most interesting homes aren't perfectly matched. They're filled with things someone genuinely loves.

04
COLOUR & CONTRAST

Don't be afraid to bring in colour.

Art is one of the easiest ways to introduce colour without changing the entire room.

If your interior is filled with neutrals, a vibrant print can become the statement that brings everything to life.

Already have a colourful space? Choose artwork that repeats a few existing tones to create a sense of connection.

A mix of warm, muted and expressive tones can feel beautifully balanced.

THE STYLING TIP

Choose one colour from your artwork and echo it in a cushion, vase or decorative object. It's a simple way to make everything feel connected.

05
LAYERED LIVING

Not everything needs a nail.

Sometimes the most effortless styling comes from simply leaning artwork against the wall.

A framed art print on a sideboard, bookshelf or picture ledge can create a more relaxed look than a traditional wall display.

Layer it with books, candles or a decorative object. Mix different frame sizes and heights to create depth.

It's also a flexible approach if you like updating your interior throughout the year.

THE STYLING TIP

Let a larger print sit behind a smaller one on a shelf. Keep both stable and securely supported to prevent slipping or falling.

06
LITTLE SPACES

Small wall? Big potential.

You don't need a huge living room wall to make a beautiful impact.

Think about the smaller areas of your home: that narrow hallway, the wall beside your desk, the space above a bedside table.

A carefully chosen print can make these little corners feel thoughtful and complete.

In narrow spaces, vertical artwork can work particularly well. In a wider area, a pair of smaller prints can add balance.

THE STYLING TIP

Don't feel every available wall needs decorating. Leaving some breathing room helps your favourite artwork stand out.

07
THE PERSONAL TOUCH

Make your wall feel like your story.

The most memorable interiors are the ones that feel personal.

Maybe you love vintage colours. Maybe you're drawn to abstract shapes. Perhaps a particular illustration makes you smile every time you see it.

Choose pieces that remind you of what you love, where you've been or the feeling you want your home to have.

Don't worry too much about whether everything matches. A room feels special when it reflects the person living in it.

THE STYLING TIP

Start with one piece you genuinely love. Build the rest of the wall around it, one print at a time.
