Living in Hong Kong has its challenges. With a mix of residential towers and nature, Hong Kong’s dynamic mix of architecture pushes us to be creative when it comes to home décor.

While it is easy to fill a room with music, finding art for your home is trickier. Below is a guide on how to curate the perfect art collection for three different Hong Kong living spaces.

Small & affordable

Hong Kong is known for our compact space. Hence, Being Functional Is Key.

Blank wall spaces are usually the place to start. Mix up a collection of smaller pieces to create a gallery wall, or use art to establish distinct zones within your apartment. You can also consider artworks along the bedside table

Ultimately, the key to upleveling your studio apartment is to reflect your personality. Loving Hong Kong’s cityline? Consider a photography image. Loving abstracts?  Add texture and dimension in your collection to show your niche interests.

Opulence and Luxury

When decorating large family apartments, create a warm, inviting space that reflects the personalities and interests of everyone who lives there. Utilize artworks to bring balance to shared spaces, define family zones, and foster a sense of togetherness.

• Living room centrepiece

Consider having a statement piece in the living or dining room to anchor the space and serve as conversation starter. Choose frames or colours that ties together different rooms for a harmonious flow, or balance out with a cohesive colour palette. Mix media works well, for example painting, prints, and wall sculptures to add texture and depth.

• Leave room for changes

Involve yours little ones when buying art, as art plays an important role in shaping child’s environment and encourages creativity.

Fun, colourful artworks can pique a child’s interest. Consider incorporating artworks that engages with the right brain, and make the little ones’ room feel both cosy and creative.

Outdoor and villas

When it comes to decorating a villa, art can complement the scale, character, and architectural presence of the space. Villas often feature larger walls and higher ceilings and open layouts, and with the right art, it can transform the home into a true statement of taste.

• Your vocal point

Large-scale artworks and multi-panel pieces can serve as focal points in open living areas, drawing attention and setting tone for the home’s aesthetic. Try mixing artworks of various textures and sizes.

• Play with steps

Corridors and stairwells can be a key feature to enhance architectural flow and guide the eyes naturally through the home!

• Outdoors – be weary of the rain

Art doesn’t have to stop at your walls – it can seamlessly extend into outdoor living spaces. Sculptures, ceramic or metal installations are good choice to act as focal points in gardens, terraces or poolside areas. Be mindful to choose weather-resistant materials if considering outdoor spaces.
