The beauty of art is that it can be displayed in a myriad of ways, each creating a unique and captivating atmosphere! By placing art pieces all around the doorways, this designer achieved a bold and dynamic look that truly speaks to their client's personality. The space on the right features a more uniform display, with black and white art pieces framed in gold. What we love about this approach is how each frame boasts a unique design, despite the uniform finish, adding a layer of visual interest to the space! The designer's choice to hang art in a seemingly random fashion is a testament to their creativity, as this non-uniform display creates a captivating and intriguing wall. And we can't forget to mention the adorable teeny tiny pieces of art in the second photo, a delightful addition that brings a touch of whimsy to the space! This project is a stunning example of how art can be used to infuse a space with personality and style, and we are truly inspired by this designer's work.

In the world of interior design, sometimes the most unexpected placements can result in the most visually appealing results! Take, for instance, this project where we chose to prop up various art pieces on the fireplace mantle alongside a collection of candlesticks and vases. This design approach offers a relaxed and casual look that contrasts with the formal aesthetic of the living room. Rather than hanging the artwork on the wall, this unconventional display provides a temporary, versatile option that enhances the space's visual appeal! The resulting effect is a captivating mix of formal and informal elements, creating an unexpected yet stunning contrast. At Emily June Designs, we always strive to create unique and unexpected designs that delight and surprise our clients, and this project is no exception!

Creativity knows no bounds, and this stunning design is a testament to that fact! One of our favorite aspects of this design is the clever use of artwork to enhance the built-in shelving. When you have a wall of shelves, finding wall space to hang art can be a challenge, but this designer solved that problem in a unique and visually striking way. By hanging art over the shelves, they added another layer of dimension to the space, creating a dynamic and engaging atmosphere! We love how the artwork adds a pop of color and texture to the shelves, enhancing the visual interest and making the space feel more personalized. This approach is a great way to infuse a touch of artistry and style into a functional space like a home office or library, and we are truly inspired by this designer's talent!

Creating a gallery wall is an excellent way to add personality and character to a room while showcasing your personal taste in art! We love experimenting with different styles and approaches to gallery walls to achieve unique and stunning results. In this particular home office design, we chose a more uniform approach to the gallery wall display. While we've all seen eclectic gallery walls with varying art styles, sizes, and frames, a uniform gallery wall can be equally as striking! Whether the art pieces are part of a set, have matching frames, or arranged in a grid-like pattern, the uniformity provides a cohesive and organized look to the space. This approach allows the art to be the main focus, creating a stunning visual impact!

Design is all about innovation and finding new ways to elevate a space, and this beautiful design is a true example of that! One of the most impressive aspects of this design is how the designer used a large mirror to create a stunning reflection of the art gallery wall. By placing the mirror wall directly across from the gallery wall, they were able to create an effect that allows the viewer to appreciate the artwork from multiple angles, making the space feel even more expansive and dynamic. We love how the mirror wall not only adds an extra layer of dimension to the room but also amplifies the impact of the art by reflecting it across the space! This clever approach to displaying art is a testament to the designer's creative vision and ingenuity, and we are truly inspired by their ability to transform a space with such elegance and sophistication.
