How To Decorate Any Room With Copper Wall Sculpture

By Elaine Guthrie


If you love art, you may be looking for ways to add it to your home or office. One way to do so is by adding a copper wall sculpture. These pieces can be beautiful and can also be durable enough in some cases to handle exposure to the elements. If you want tips on how to choose a piece for your space, this article should provide you with information that will make the selection process easier. Here is what you need to know before you start shopping.

Rooms come in many shapes and sizes and it is important to think of the room where your piece will hang. If there are large expanses of wall space you will have a lot of versatility in terms of where to position pieces and you will also be able to accommodate a wide range of sculpture sizes. The majority of homes and office spaces are now trending towards open concept layouts and this may mean that there are fewer walls where pieces can be hung.

The style of the room is important as well. Traditional architecture can look quite different than modern architecture can. You want to make sure that your piece will work with the other features in the room such as furniture and other artwork. You may need to try several different pieces in the same space before you find the perfect one for you. If you try and place a very modern piece in a setting that is very traditional, it may feel and look uncomfortable and out of place.

If you do not have a large amount of wall space to hang your piece you may want to consider a sculpture or piece of artwork that is made up of smaller sections. These will often be lighter as well than a sculpture made from a single sheet or piece of metal. Keep in mind whether the piece will still have the same meaning or impact if it is broken up and hung in several separate areas.

When you are looking at a particular sculpture, you may want to ask whether it has been coated or treated with anything. This is because copper is a metal which oxidize over time. While this can create a beautiful patina or color, you may find that it is not the look you had hoped for. A treated piece may still have the same beautiful look of an untreated copper piece but will not change color over time.

Some pieces will have special hanging instructions that will accompany them. This could be anything from needing a special type of hanger to needing to reinforce the wall so that the weight of the sculpture will not cause problems. Make sure you follow the instructions so that you do not end up with an art-related catastrophe on your hands.

Office spaces can also benefit from artwork exactly the same way a home can. When buying for an office, you do need to remember that your choice will be as much of an expression of your company's attitudes as it will be your own. For creative industries, this may not be as much of an issue, but for traditional industries you may need to be careful about what you choose to hang in your space.

Once you have a rough idea of what you are looking for you can start shopping. You may feel uncomfortable going into art galleries but you do not have to. They will enjoy the chance to help you find pieces that work well for you and can help educate you on buying and art in general. Then you can feel comfortable knowing that you have found a unique piece that brings a special touch to your personal space.
