Why install a Japanese picture in your home?
Just before we go into detail about the design of this Sabres Japanese picture and how you can set it off to best advantage with your decorative objects (lamps, candles, furniture, light fittings, rugs, chairs, tables, armchairs, sofas, cushions...), the décor, the colors and the decorative style (antique, Scandinavian, modern...) already present in your home, we'd like to quickly remind you of the main advantages of opting for a Japanese picture like this one and not for a classic picture with a mainstream, industrial style.
Firstly, it's important to think about your relationship with Japanese culture and why you're so drawn to it. Maybe it's because it's a country you visit often, or maybe it's just the country's designs that you're particularly fond of. Whatever the case, it's important that you have a minimum affinity with this culture and its designs. Indeed, owning a painting like this Sabres Japanese Painting is a way of traveling on a daily basis without having to move. But above all, it's a decorative piece designed to make your home, or at least your living space, a place that's uniquely yours, with a cosy, cocooning atmosphere. Installing objects you love makes you feel at home, because your personal tastes are reflected in the components of the space you live in every day. Unconsciously, this makes us happier and more energetic than if the room were empty and impersonal. That's why, if you're a fan of Japanese culture, a Japanese picture is a much better choice than a general-purpose picture, which is designed to appeal to everyone.
Where to install this Sabres Japanese picture ?
Now that we've seen why, if you appreciate the Japanese style, it's best to create a personal space with decorations like this Sabres Japanese Painting. Let's list the pros and cons of where you can install this painting.
The most common room in which to hang this painting is the dining room, since it's usually a large room that receives a lot of light, and it's easy to find a wall that's big enough to accommodate this wall decoration. Be careful, however, to leave plenty of space around the picture and not to stick it too close to a shelf, piece of furniture or chest of drawers, otherwise it won't really stand out. Secondly, this Sabres Japanese Painting can also be displayed in a bedroom. This gives it personality, and means you'll always have Japanese culture and its traditional designs close to you when you sleep. Finally, the kitchen and the bathroom are the last two most suitable locations for this painting, provided of course that you have the space and that your wallpaper and curtains match the painting. If you'd like to install it in a bathroom, that's also an option, but be careful not to put it near the shower or bath so as not to risk damaging the canvas with drops of water.
How to enhance this Sabres Japanese Painting ?
Once you've decided on the room in which to display this painting, you'll need to decide on the wall on which it will be hung. If your furniture configuration and room layout don't allow you to consider several choices, you won't need to think about it. But if you do have a choice, it's best to mount the picture in the center of the wall, leaving plenty of space around it to show it off in the room and create a warm atmosphere.
Also, make sure you don't hang this Japanese Sabres picture too far from light sources, whether natural or artificial, as its colors may not come out to best advantage. Finally, just as with the number of walls, if you have the choice, it's also advisable to prefer a natural light source so that its nuances aren't slightly influenced by the color reflected by a lamp, bulb or lampshade.
