Whether you’re up-sizing, downsizing, or in need of a change, selling your home can be a tricky business. But, research shows that a well-dressed, organized home can be a huge factor in how much and how fast your house gets sold for. And what better way to show potential buyers the potential of the new house than with art?
1. Feature art that is open, inviting, non-specific and easy to relate to.
One of the first things a real estate agent may say to you when preparing your house for a showing is to “depersonalize” the space. This is so that the potential buyers focus on the qualities of the house, rather than a family vacation photo. However, hanging artwork such as Abstract art and Landscapes on canvas are a great way to strike a balance between both extremes: their feature can brighten or compliment the space, while remaining depersonalized enough for everyone to relate to.
2. Re-purpose something you already have.
Another way to quickly add some art to your home is to use what you already have. Take maps, for example. Maps are all the rage right now, and are inexpensive to purchase or print if you don’t have one already. Just stick it in a shiny moulding or a frame with personality and boom: instant art piece for a family room, den or office.
3. Show off your geek.
It’s now become more and more common for everyone to have a geeky side to them, whether it be gaming, movies, a tv series or comics. Display your prized artworks, whether it be fanart, an autographed print, or a large format poster. Plaque-mounted movie posters are an especially popular thing to do, which gives your home a bit of off-beat, subversive sophistication.
At KeenArt, we can help you dress up your home in the best way possible. Have a landscape photo from your travels? We can print it on canvas for you. Have a personal abstract piece you’d like to have enlarged? We can scan it in, digitize it, and help you print it at the size you need. Got a signed print from your favorite actor? We can help preserve it by framing it, or sealing it on on a plaque with bevelled edges. The choices are wide and nearly limitless! Give us a call or email today, we’d be happy to help on any project, big or small.
