Relationship experts are always saying we need to express our needs and desires a bit more, but it can be tricky can’t it? Well, here’s your opportunity to practice on something a little less fragile than a relationship with a loved one.
Step 1: Fall in love with photo art.
Step 2: Name your desire.
Step 3: Express your need for it to be hung in a particular room.
Step 4: Stand back and commend yourself on a job well done.
To help get you started, we’ve put together 14 heart stopping ideas that will make Step 1 very easy to achieve. We’d love to hear how you go with Step 2!
1. Atmospheric
Everyone loves monochrome art, but it’s also often a style that speaks to a masculine decor, great for a bachelor pad or anyone who loves refined, minimalist, atmospheric interior design.
TURBULENT: This menacing black and white photo print ‘The Old Jetty And The Storm’ from our Man Cave collection adds mood to an otherwise minimalist decor.
2. Calming
