10 tips for choosing and combining vintage posters at home
Have you fallen in love with our collection of vintage posters and are you wondering how to integrate them into your interior? Do not panic ! Here are 10 practical tips to help you choose and combine your favorite posters to create a decor that suits you.
1. Define your style
Before diving headlong into purchasing posters, take the time to think about the atmosphere you want to create. Industrial vintage , retro chic , bohemian... What is your style? Once you have a clear idea, it will be easier to select posters that fit harmoniously into your decor.
2. Play with colors
Vintage posters are often rich in color. Take advantage of this to bring a touch of pep to your interior! You can choose posters in colors that complement your existing decoration, or on the contrary, dare to contrast to create a focal point. Don't hesitate to use a colorful poster as a starting point for defining the color palette of an entire room.
3. Vary the formats
Mixing formats is a great way to energize your poster wall. Alternate between large posters and small, more intimate formats. This variation in sizes will create rhythm and visual interest. For example, you can place a large poster in the center and surround it with several smaller ones for an art gallery effect.
4. Think about composition
When you arrange several posters together, think about their composition. A symmetrical approach with aligned posters can suit a more classic interior, while an asymmetrical arrangement will give a more relaxed, bohemian feel. Don't be afraid to experiment by arranging your posters on the floor before hanging them.
5. Create themes
Grouping posters by theme is a great way to give meaning to your decoration. For example, you can create a wall dedicated to movie posters, vintage drinks advertisements, or even travel posters. This thematic consistency will bring a touch of personality to your interior.
6. Dare to mix and match
Although creating themes is fun, don't be afraid to mix styles and eras. An Art Deco poster can coexist very well with an advertisement from the 60s if the colors harmonize. This mixture will bring character and originality to your decoration.
7. Adapt to the space
Consider available space when choosing your posters. A large poster might look great above a sofa or in a hallway, while smaller sizes will work better in an office or entryway. Don't forget to let your posters "breathe" by giving them enough space around them.
8. Play with frames
Our fine wood and aluminum frames are perfect for showcasing your vintage posters while remaining discreet. You can opt for a uniform approach by choosing the same type of frame for all your posters, or on the contrary, mix styles for more dynamism. The wooden frame will bring a warm touch, while the aluminum will give a more contemporary side.
9. Think about readability
If you choose posters with text, make sure they will be readable when hung. A poster full of details may look better in a place where you can get up close, such as a hallway, rather than high above a fireplace.
10. Treat yourself!
Finally, and perhaps the most important tip: choose posters that you really like! Your interior should reflect your personality and your tastes. Don't force yourself to buy a poster just because it's trendy if it doesn't speak to you. The important thing is that you enjoy looking at it every day.
Bonus : Don’t hesitate to change your decoration
Remember that nothing is fixed in decoration. The advantage of posters is that they are easy to change. Don't hesitate to evolve your collection over time, move your posters from one room to another, or replace them according to the seasons or your desires.
There you go, you now have all the keys in hand to create a unique interior with our vintage posters! Remember that decoration should above all make you happy. So let your creativity flow and have fun creating your own art gallery at home. And if you need help choosing the perfect frame for your new poster, don't hesitate to contact us. Happy decorating!
