Barbara Griffith Designs Can you post 3 more pictures showing all directions of this area?

lirva Why not take a look round some art shops and purchase a HUGE multi coloured abstract painting ..... or buy a large canvass and paint your own abstract.Or fill the wall with various size photos and paintings and turn it into your very own personal art gallery Lirva

MirrorWindows.com Lots of elevation needed. I like the idea of an abstract painting. How about separating the vertical space with trim and hanging some mirror windows above and the painting below?

Tammy Sprinkle I love your idea of using molding to break up the space. There are so many design options with that. You can frame art, sculptures, sconces, mirrors, etc. Another idea would be to wall decals. An example is in one of the photos I attached. Another idea would be to use artwork and photos mixed with architectural pieces, etc. I also have see a wall divided into 2/3 color on bottom and 1/3 different color on top and a piece of molding at the division sort of like a picture rail.

Bonnie Do you mean trim work... like picture molding? I have pasted some photos for ideas. I think some picture molding would help to give it a little definition, warm it up, and you could pull off either contemporary or traditional depending on your choice of paint, wallpaper etc...

Alexei Rebrov Art Huge wall is any artist dream. How do you like these aluminum prints? They can be either frameless of framed.

Keena Paul Commonly frames are for walls. Right? That's the essence of walls to be decorated by something that you can stick to it. Wall lights will do, just match it with your style or DIY wall decors just like. Hanged tiny shells in a tiny string.. Just be creative!

centaurita Love the ideas from Alexei. Especially the last one in the white frame.

designideas4me Well I think the couch should not be up against the wall for one thing. I also dont like the big art idea on that wall unless you LOVE it cuz you will be stuck having to decorate around that piece. A large rug and new coffee table with decor will help focus attention on the couch and rug than on the wall alone. Bring it more into the room not against the wall.

designideas4me Hey I have the same ikea lamp..

But its not the right scale for that space.

Charlie Vanderwilt I would suggest a VERY large piece (or pieces) of art with some bold colour and/or a Very large rectangular mirror hung horizontally

loroca I think the easiest and cheapest way to deal with it would be to get maybe 3 or 4 large canvas paintings/prints and evenly space them across the wall. If carefully measured, you might even be able to cover those speakers. Maybe even get some picture lamps, and you can have your own gallery.

designgrl01 Break it up with a paint effect or grouping mirrors and other objects in a non-symmetrical look.

Barbara Griffith Designs You should not decorate one wall if you cannot see the rest of the room.

designgrl01 As the picture leads me to believe that the left wall has windows - taller based on the light pattern they emit and the right side of the room appears to be a stair wall just off the entry. A cluster of artwork over the sofa will define the wall area that is living room space verses the right side of the wall that is the foyer - it appears. More pictures would help, but based on what I see and read into the picture - this my best limited input for you---best of luck in your projects.

Mark Hogan Architect Having some large framed black and white photography on that wall might be easier to coordinate with furnishings than a large and colorful painting. You could do three large framed photos and then add color elsewhere. I would also do something with those speakers - either covers for them that blend into the wall better or move them entirely.
