Street Art Posters: How to Style Urban Wall Art at Home

Street art posters bring raw energy to any room. One painterly, Basquiat-inspired print can carry a whole wall in a living room, studio or hallway.

Expressive characters, bold brush strokes and strong colors work best with a few simple rules. Here is how to style them in three spots.

Part 1

Living room: one statement piece

  • Hang one large poster centred above the sofa, about 15 to 25 cm above the back
  • Urban Rebel adds bold pink and yellow to calm grey or brick walls
  • Keep the rest of the wall simple so the artwork stands out
Part 2

Studio or home office: raw energy at your desk

Hang it beside the desk on a plain wall, so the brush strokes get room.

Color, frame and lighting tips

  • Neutral walls (white, grey, brick) let bold colors pop
  • Black frames keep brush strokes and graffiti lines sharp
  • Mix carefully: pair one loud poster with calmer prints, or keep all frames the same
  • Avoid glare: plexiglass reflects bright windows, so use side lighting
  • Right size: see our poster size guide
