How to choose your Art - collectables, bespoke pieces for your interior living space

The art you choose for your home interior is an expression of your individuality, providing insight into your personal identity, beliefs and what you define as meaningful in your life. Art is also a vital element for creating a mood within your space, such as vibrant and joyful or relaxed and subdued. This is why it's so important spending the time to find the perfect bespoke pieces for decorating your personal space.


There has been a notable transition from minimialism to expressive art forms this year, which is an exciting development for interior design. With such a broad scope of artwork available for decorating your home in 2020, we've simplified this process by showcasing some of the most popular art trends.

Dramatic line art

The striking contrast of black and white explored through line art makes this art trend ideal to create dramatic statement pieces for your home interior. Inspired by renowned artists like Picasso and Matisse, line art can be used for classic or more contemporary designs.

Feminine body art

There's a strong focus on the feminine form in the artwork that's trending in 2020. Rather than the more linear designs that have made an appearance in previous years, curves are making a comeback! Female empowerment is the subject of this design trend, with many pieces highlighting women's strengths, as well as the beauty of the female silhouette.

Bold portraits

With expressive artwork coming to the forefront of interior design this year, bold portraits are the perfect choice for making a statement. Rather than choosing more traditional portrait art, look for beautifully styled contemporary pieces that highlight a strength of emotion, to captivate an audience.

Loud abstracts

Contrasting a wide array of shapes and colours, the 2020 design trend of loud abstracts offer a striking addition to your home interior, capturing attention by using the impact of negative space. Whether you prefer the modern appeal of street art through to more subtle geometric designs, abstracts lend modern styling to your home interior. A tip when using loud abstracts for your personal spaces, opt for a large canvas for greater impact.

Retro inspiration

While retro inspired artwork isn't a new concept, vintage posters have become a trend in 2020. There is also an interest in some of the classic paintings as prints, such as Matisse, as well as renewed appreciation for secondhand finds.

Evocative collages

An exciting new trend for 2020, collages are making an appearance in a wide array of evocative and eclectic designs. By using different materials and media, collages are an expressive art form that really characterises your personal style and tastes.

Surrealist photography

Photography as art in 2020 is trending toward surrealism. Photo manipulation is used to create strikingly creative images in both black and white and colour. Line art and photography have also been combined to explore philosophical topics relating to human existence.

Floral delights

As nature plays more of a role in home interiors, it's also trending in the artwork for 2020. With sustainability, health and well-being becoming a key focus in interior design, there's more demand for botanical art pieces and earthier colour schemes.

These are just some of the many art trends that have been introduced in 2020 which are creating striking bespoke artwork that you can use to epitomise your personal tastes for your home interior.
