My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Need help with wall art.

10 years ago
I need some ideas for wall art in my entry room. I've been working on thia room for months :(. I still have a long way to go, but I feel I need to find my wall art first before I do anything else. All suggestions welcome.

Wall color is an egg plant purple.

Thank you

Pics attached are of the entire room.

    Buy from an artist--real art. And buy what you like. Just don't waste money on generic stuff that looks like it should be in a bank lobby. You could spend $800 on reproduction schlock from ZGallerie or spend the same (or less) on a real painting from a real artist.
