People often ask how large a work should be for a living room. The better question is: how much emptiness is your wall willing to offer?\n\nVertical works suit rooms with generous ceiling height, while horizontal pieces anchor a wall. Small square formats belong to studies.\n\nMounting is the second variable. Museum-grade matting adds a ring of breath around the work; a traditional scroll gathers its edges with rods.\n\nContent comes last. It should serve the temperament of the space.
