Selecting the Right Art Pieces for Your Space or Style

Art has the unique ability to transform any space. It doesn’t just decorate—it evokes emotion, tells a story, and connects us to deeper truths. When it comes to selecting the right art for your home or workspace, the process can feel overwhelming. With so many options, styles, and sizes, how do you choose the perfect piece?

At Modern Medieval Press, my mission is to offer handcrafted medieval and fantasy-inspired artwork that not only enhances your surroundings but also brings a sense of timeless wonder to your life. Let us help you navigate the journey of selecting the right art for your space and style.

 

Why Choosing the Right Art Matters

Art is personal. It reflects your identity, your passions, and the story you want your space to tell. Whether it’s the warm ambiance of a reading nook, the professional aura of an office, or the cozy intimacy of a bedroom, the right art sets the tone.

For those of us enchanted by medieval history, gothic aesthetics, or fantasy lore, the art we choose becomes more than just décor—it’s a portal into another world. With Modern Medieval Press, every piece is crafted to evoke these timeless themes, allowing you to bring magic into your everyday spaces.

 

Step 1: Understand Your Space

Before you can select the right piece, you’ll need to evaluate the environment where the art will live.

1. Room Purpose:
The function of a room plays a significant role in determining what kind of art fits best. Is the room a place to relax, work, or entertain? For example:

• A bold, intricate piece like a Modern Medieval Press dragon print can energize a home office, inspiring creativity and focus.
• In a serene bedroom, a soft illuminated manuscript-style design adds a touch of calm and elegance.

2. Size and Layout:
Proportions are everything. A massive piece might overpower a small wall, while smaller prints might feel lost on a large, open surface. Measure your wall space and think about how the art will interact with furniture and decor.

• Modern Medieval Press offers a range of sizes, from 5x5 mini prints perfect for shelves or desks to 8x10 statement pieces that command attention.

3. Light and Color:
Consider the lighting in your space. Natural light enhances rich textures, making detailed medieval-inspired prints shine. Pair these pieces with frames that match your room's color palette to create a cohesive look.

 

Step 2: Match Art to Your Style

Art should reflect your personality and complement the overall aesthetic of your home.

1. Embrace Your Personal Style:
Your art should make you feel at home. If you’re drawn to historical and fantasy themes, pieces from Modern Medieval Press can blend seamlessly into styles like:

• Rustic: Pair a medieval print with wood accents and natural textures.
• Gothic: Highlight dark, intricate designs with dramatic lighting and ornate frames.
• Eclectic: Mix and match with other styles for a creative and unique display.

2. Tell Your Story:
Art is storytelling. Choose pieces that resonate with your personal journey, whether it’s a print that recalls your love of medieval history or a custom piece designed to incorporate a favorite quote or symbol. Modern Medieval Press even offers one-on-one consultations to bring your story to life.

3. Mix and Match:
Don’t be afraid to pair medieval-inspired art with modern or traditional styles. For instance, a finely detailed illuminated manuscript can be juxtaposed with minimalist furniture to create a striking contrast.

 

Step 3: Practical Tips for Selection and Placement

1. Start Small:
Not sure where to begin? Start with smaller pieces like bookmarks, postcards, or 5x7 mini prints to see how medieval-inspired art fits into your space.

2. Experiment and Rotate:
Art doesn’t have to be permanent. Rotate pieces seasonally or whenever you need a fresh perspective. For patrons of Modern Medieval Press, this is easy with quarterly rewards that deliver new prints straight to your door.

3. Go Custom:
If you’re looking for something truly unique, Modern Medieval Press offers custom designs tailored to your space and style. Collaborate with us to create a piece that fits perfectly into your story.
