TRENDS: GRAFFITI

TRENDS: Graffiti 

Graffiti is interpreted in different ways to different people. From being anti-social behaviour to another form of art. While it can be enjoyed for its face value a colourful public statement, often reflecting a specific time in society. However you feel about the medium,though, I think you'll agree these creative homeowners have integrated street art into their spaces brilliantly, creating unique decorations that add energy and excitement into their homes.  


  
Experiment 
Graffiti doesn't have to stick to just the one canvas experiment with different backgrounds and textures. Also by spraying onto a canvas it is not permanent! 


 
Don't be afraid to copy 
Don't be afraid of ripping off one of your favourite graffiti artists work, if it looks good why not? This piece looks perfect within the industrial feel living room. 


Changeable 
By using perspex sheets like these, they are easily changed and removed whenever wanted. Placed in front of a solid coloured wall such as white or black, they create an impressive impact.  


Plain and simple  
Sometimes just a plain and simple design can have as big an impact as a crazy design. This lettering adds a focal point to the room as well as a comedic value. When using a simple design like this trying keep the rest of the room simple too. 


Go big or go home 
A full wall mural may be daunting for some homeowners however it packs an impressive punch. Why not go all out? Such murals can be commissioned by the professional don't worry. The decorative bicycle within the room helps tie everything together, as it picks up on the red within the graffiti. Key when there is such a big mural.


Groovy geo 
A fantastic geometric pattern in metallic colours could not be left out of this blog post. Just look how amazing it looks. Graffiti doesn't have to always be about big bold colours, try colours on the cooler side of the spectrum for a more understated look.
