Shop online for artwork that suits your new space

Thursday, 16 February 2012 11:58 AM

A favourite artwork can often dictate the design of a room when decorating.
An artwork can also give an interior the character and focal point it was missing.

But choosing a piece to complement your decorating style can be both difficult and time consuming with high-quality and unique works often only available at specialty stores.

Formyhome.co.uk has found an online treasure chest of artworks ideal for interior decorating at art.co.uk

The site has more than one million high-quality prints, 18,000 limited edition prints and a bespoke framing service which can all be ordered online and delivered to your home.

This is ideal because you can sit in the space you wish to hang the piece and bring it up on the screen of your laptop to compare it to paint colours and get a visual idea of how it will look in the room.

 

No need to spend hours searching either with the site tagging artworks so you can use search terms such as sunset and water or blue and green to find something suitable.

The site takes it one step further offering a unique ordering service for those who have something specific in mind.

“Visual Search and Match my image technology allows users to take a smart phone pic of a piece of street art, a sunset or a magazine cover, upload it to the site and we’ll locate, learn more and purchase specific artwork based on it,” CEO Geoffroy Martin said.
