Second, art helps buyers envision living in your space by hinting at how a room may be used and evoking certain emotions. Think about the feeling conveyed by a black-and-white cityscape in an office or a blue abstract in a bedroom. Third, art can help unify a space, as may be seen if two or more related pieces are hung on the walls in one or more rooms. For example, use a geometric abstract on a wall in a living room and a similar piece on the wall in the adjacent dining room to create a cohesive look. &#8211;<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.greenehousenyc.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">GreeneHouse NYC<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>When selecting the artwork, keep your target audience in mind and avoid using art that portrays sinister or risqu\u00e9 scenes, which may not appeal to a broader audience. <\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Instead, choose pieces that can provide a space with a focal point where there isn&#8217;t one, add color, or emphasize the home&#8217;s custom features. <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&#8211;<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.ctexclusivehomes.com\/\" rel=\"nofollow external noopener noreferrer\" data-wpel-link=\"external\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">CT Exclusive Homes<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><b>Envision the finished space when choosing artwork.<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> Know the art story, context, color, size, and location of the wall art when choosing artwork for staging your home.

You can also highlight the home&#8217;s best features and help potential buyers see the home&#8217;s potential with size and scale.

For example, a home with a young family could benefit from brighter colors and whimsical artwork, while a home for a younger couple or single person might be best presented with a more boho vibe, such as a guitar on the wall, a vintage map, or a textural crocheted wall hanging.
