Why meaningful is more than just decorate

A lot of décor is just filler. Meaningful art stirs emotions, peace, power, wonder, or even a smile. Think of a quote that motivates you, a portrait whose eyes stay with you, or an animal that reminds you of your childhood.
These pieces linger, for you and your guests, and give your interior lasting impact.

 

Four examples of Artivel collections, four emotions

Portraits full of Soul → depth and emotion, for when you want a gaze that captivates.
Animals with Soul → energy and recognition, playful or powerful presence.
Lines of Rest → balance and minimalism, ideal for a serene, orderly space.
Custom Art → the ultimate in personality; upload your own design.Wall art with black lines on a white and beige background in a minimalist interior with a wooden wall rack

Which style fits your personal taste?

Modern interior → clean lines, neutral colours, matte finish.
Boho or hotel chic → rich textures, warm deep hues.
Country style → nature themes, soft pastels, calm and balance.

Tip: Echo one color from your artwork in pillows or vases to create harmony.

 

Colour, balance and visual power: how to choose at a glance

     - Match art width to ~¾ of the furniture beneath it.

     - Leave ±10 cm space on both sides for breathing room.

     - One focal piece is enough; too many small ones can look cluttered.

     - View colors in daylight, textile reflects light differently than a screen.
