The modular painting is considered a modern piece of furniture, although it first saw the light of day back in Ancient Greece. The main feature of such canvases is the fact that they are divided into several parts, but at the same time they are not separate images, but fragments of one composition. Such products can be purchased in regular stores and using web resources, but to create a truly original interior, it is better to make modular paintings with your own hands.

The living room is considered a great place to experiment and combine different light and sunny colors. If there are no specific rules regarding the combination of shades, then the size of the picture should correspond to the size of the room. Dimensional modular canvases will look cumbersome and ridiculous in a living room of a small area, and small images will simply get lost in a large room.

When making a picture for a bedroom, it is important to remember that this is a place of rest and relaxation, therefore, the image should not contain sharp and aggressive lines and colors. A calm landscape or abstract image is best for this room. It is also very important to choose the shade of the product so that it is in harmony with, since the sharp resonance will draw too much attention to one detail of the interior.

Bright colors are often used to decorate children's rooms, and their number can be very large for one room. Therefore, it is better not to make a modular picture in such tones. Also, a child is unlikely to appreciate abstraction; it is better to opt for images of animals, heroes of fairy tales or cartoons. If a teenager lives in a room, then it is better to give him a choice, and find out in advance whether he wants to see such a decoration in his room at all. You can offer several photos with friends (only print so that there are parts of two or more photos on one fragment), images with your favorite actor or musician are also suitable.
