Not simply functional, treat your walls like an extension of your personality
SUBTLETY IS KEY
You can make a statement without going overboard on the color. A repeat pattern in a two-color scheme delivers eye-catching interest without overwhelming the senses. Woodland wallpaper in vanilla, £69, fionahoward.com
PICTURE PERFECT
Your art should speak to your heart. Don’t choose pieces that match the room, choose pieces that sing. Photography is a sadly overlooked art form that can dazzle and delight in equal measure, bringing hot colours or cool shades to your space, and adding more than a hint of your personality. A-Frame House (2017), a photograph by Matt Stock, £3,193.98, artfinder.com
CLOCKING ON
Far from purely functional, a wall clock can stand for itself as the centrepiece for an otherwise empty wall. Or get creative and build it into a carefully curated gallery wall of artwork and photos collected from your favourite places – after all, time waits for no man and every moment should be spent wisely. Gold pleated clock, £48, audenza.com
