Well-displayed Rohde art enriches your home! Rohde art affords a way to express your personality and make your living space uniquely yours. How you place and arrange your art has a profound impact on a room. Decorating with art is all about creating a pleasing arrangement that harmonizes with its surroundings. There are no rules as far as what type of artwork should be displayed where. Framing is also subject to individual taste, but it must complement the artwork and should always be done in archival materials. Rohde art can be displayed alone or in groups such as the suggestions below.

Decorating hints: For a fantastic Rohde art display Make a balanced arrangement A balanced, rhythmic display of art is appealing to the eye. (See sample illustrations below) Combine sizes and mediums Try displaying artwork of contrasting sizes and mediums together, such as putting small graphite pieces on either side of a large oil painting. You can also combine vertical and horizontal pieces. Position art at eye level Rohde art is best enjoyed at either standing or sitting eye level. Try non-traditional framing With oversize matting, you can transform a small work of art into a dramatic statement! You can also mat a series of Rohde pictures together in a single frame! Display art in a safe area Rohde art is made to last but it's still best to protect it from extreme temperatures and prolonged sun exposure.

Symmetrical art wall arrangements: A great choice for hanging Rohde art that has similar size, color, subject matter, and framing. Creates an attractive mirror-like balance that is very popular. Assymetrical art wall arrangements: Staggered groupings are excellent for Rohde artwork featuring a variety of subjects and sizes. Frames don't have to match exactly as long as they complement each other and the room. Assymetrical arrangements like these have a dynamic feeling of "movement" and energy. Line groupings: Perfect for formal, themed displays of similar artwork. Popular for over couches, along hallways, in stairwells, and above mantles. Reminiscent of museums or galleries. Clustering: A cluster is a group of art that appears as one unit. There is usually one dominant piece. The art can be a contrast of colors, sizes, and shapes as long as there is a harmonious "look" about them. (Hint: Before hanging the art, experiment with arrangements on a table or floor until you get just the right combination.) Leaning art and art shelves: For casual yet sophisticated appeal, try leaning large framed pieces of Rohde art against a wall or placing smaller pieces on a shelf where you can combine them with other decorative objects like flower vases or small sculpture. These examples are just a few of the many ways in which Rohde art can add exciting visual effects to your walls.
