In this setting, the comic strip art piece looks modern even though the subject is retro. Bold scale and color make this space feel all grown up.

The comic strip fabric on these art deco–inspired chairs is reminiscent of the black and white ink of early comics. This fabric would look great in a room with a black and white color scheme or with a bold paint color on the walls.

Just like the comic strip format itself, this art tells a story in a panel format. Comics-inspired art is a perfect backdrop for game room activity.

With this look in the entry hall, you know this Houston pied-à-terre is going to be fun. The colors in the art set the palette for the entire home.

A bedroom from the same home features a sitting area with a mirror shaped like a cartoon dialogue bubble.

This comic strip fabric on a lacquered white rococo armchair is quirky style at its best. I do love the bright red wall but could also see this working with bright green, yellow or cobalt blue.

Use a primary color scheme to enhance comic strip art. The modern elements of this space make it suitable as a child's room or a home office. Superman appears to be coming from the sky outside this room.

Overscale comic strip art takes up the full wall in this game room. The camp-style lights take color cues from the art. The opposite wall hints at a comic-book "Pow!" with an opening that mimics a broken brick wall.

Here is the same room from the other side of the broken wall. Whimsical comic-style pillows support the theme.

Framed comic strip art signed by Charles Schultz of Peanuts fame is the focal point in this great kid space.

olldbobbi What a great idea! I've seen cartoon fabric before but never knew what to do with it. I'm going to look for Heckel & Jeckel or Spy vs. Spy fabric, love it!

olldbobbi Charmean, will do! Question, what is a good pillow filling that won't be too hard but will not lose it's shape or it's fluff?

jenberry72 olldbob: Down or feather pillow inserts are the really the only way to go. You just have to fluff them once in a while but they'll never go flat like synthetic fiber fill inserts.

Casart Coverings Holy creativity, Charmean! Great ideabook! I especially like the fabric on the art deco and rococo chairs. That subtle cartoon dialogue mirror as well as the not-so-subtle open brick wall are wonderful whimsical tongue-in-cheek features.

perezfam Where would one find these big bold comic inspired pieces of art? Also interested in graffiti inspired art. Any ideas where I could find something like that. I have considered commissioning a kid to do the latter (if I could find the right one).

olldbobbi perezfam, I think if you hung out at the right overpass, you could surely find a kid willing to give you the graffiti art you're looking for! Seriously, maybe you could check with the local high school or Jr. College?

FredAndEthelsMom Well, I guess my 50s horror movie posters hanging in my guest bath aren't so strange after all. Who wouldn't want to contemplate "Tarantula" or "Creature from the Black Lagoon" while taking care of business?

Casart Coverings Fred and Ethel-as in I Love Lucy? Name and humor really caught my eye. Actually had a real-life encounter with a large spider UNDER the toilet seat in safari camp in Botswana. Fortunate for me, my husband used the facilities first and warned me to lift the seat first! Ladies-lesson learned if in a wild, remote place!

cmighell Perezfam, the pieces in the Houston pied-a-terre are Patty Kelly, I'd recognize her work anywhere. Like a Lichtenstein but with more SASS.
