Art Work Question In a Room

Would you mix this pics together? Meaning some of them are color, sepia or B&W. Would you stick to one color type? I'm doing "classy beach inspired" decor in my family room when we redo it and I'm trying to find decor for the room. I'm looking for a light airy feeling in the room like this.

Here are some of the prints I like.

Re: Art Work Question In a Room

I would definitely mix them up.

make the color pic your focal point in the room, and then scatter the others around it in different spots.

You can def mix it up, but I would try and stay in the same color scheme (B&W and Sepia). They all go great, the only one I might leave out is the first one that is the bolder colors. It might stand out and take away from the others when you walk into the room.

Re: Art Work Question In a Room

I'm going to copy and paste the pics to my computer and play around with the pics and see what works together or not. I have a nice big wall that I would put serveral of these kinds of pics on, so I can really mix it up if I want, but not too many of course.Chat Icon

hard to advise without seeing a pic of the room and setup. i LOVE sepia so that is what i would vote.

yeah I know, it's hard to give advise without seeing the room, but unfortunately we haven't even started it yet. Just trying to get ideas, so that when we start it, everything will be all thought out and can just go into the room and be done quicker. I love sepia too. Hard decision to make.

Another question then.....if I did sepia for these pics, could I have other pics on another wall in full color? The walls are going to be....3 walls will be a beige color and one will be an accent wall which will be either a slate blue or a green/blue color. And probably light bamboo flooring.
