Living Room Wall Art

The living room is where wall art has to hold a room from across it. This collection gathers the pieces built for that distance — wide landscapes with a low horizon, abstracts with enough contrast to read from the doorway, and quiet neutrals that sit behind a sofa without competing with it.

Most of these work best large. A single horizontal canvas above a three-seat sofa, or a pair hung with a few inches between them, gives the wall a center. If your room runs warm, with oak floors and cream walls, the earth-toned landscapes settle in easily. Cooler rooms take the blue and charcoal work well.

Every piece is printed to order on gallery-grade canvas, framed or stretched.

How to choose living room wall art

The living room is the wall people see from across the room, so it rewards scale and a clear focal point. This collection gathers wide landscapes with a low horizon, abstracts with enough contrast to read from the doorway, and quiet neutrals that sit behind a sofa without competing with it.

The wall behind the sofa is the one most people get wrong by going too small. Size a single piece to about two-thirds the width of the sofa: an 84-inch sofa wants roughly 56 inches of art, such as a 40x60 inch canvas, or a pair hung a few inches apart. In an open-plan room, a large piece behind the sofa marks where the living area begins.

Every piece is printed to order on gallery-grade canvas, framed or stretched. For wide sofa walls see horizontal and panoramic wall art; for the room's undertone, neutral or moody wall art.

Frequently asked questions

What size wall art should go above a living room sofa?
Size it to about two-thirds the width of the sofa. An 84-inch sofa wants roughly 56 inches of art, such as a 40x60 inch canvas hung horizontally, or two pieces hung a few inches apart. Leave 6 to 8 inches of clear wall between the sofa back and the bottom of the frame.
What kind of wall art works in a living room?
Large-scale work with a clear focal point: wide landscapes with a low horizon, abstracts with enough contrast to read from the doorway, and quiet neutrals that sit behind a sofa without competing with it.
How do I choose living room wall art colors?
Pick up an undertone already in the room rather than introducing a new one. Warm rooms with oak floors and cream walls suit earth tones and warm greens; cooler rooms with grey or white walls take blue, charcoal and muted neutrals.
Can I use two or three pieces instead of one?
Yes. A pair hung 2 to 3 inches apart, or a triptych, suits a long sofa better than one oversized canvas. Keep one palette across the set so it reads as a single idea, and size the whole group to about two-thirds the sofa width.
