Good artwork is a key component in styling a house to sell!

As home stylists in Melbourne, we find that a piece of wall art is more than just a perfectly positioned painting on a wall. In property styling, we usually ask our clients to take down any family photos from the walls as it then creates a better opportunity for potential buyers to visualize themselves in the home. Artwork can be used to fill these spaces while broadening the aesthetic appeal.

When dressing a house for sale purposes we at Piller find that artwork should be considered at the onset of a project and referred back to at each stage of the design process. This helps make decisions on colour, furniture and material palettes much easier.
