Ikea’s exciting art

Everyone knows that designing a house and making it feel like a home takes many long and exhausting months, if not years.  So when I realized that I would only have two months to plan, design, execute, anticipate the smallest details and to think about what we might be needing in the future, I know that in order to not go insanely crazy, I had to rely on things that were not too expensive and too valuable but still good looking.  I don’t know much about Sao Paulo yet, but I know that things tend to cost three times more.  So where did I go to for basic
things as art? right! Ikea.  I was planning to buy things such as a mattress for our little one, a foot step for his sink  and so on.  Imagine my surprise when walking around I found very good looking prints!  God, was I glad, there are an awful lot of empty walls in this house that will need to be filled. We got the second one below by Deborah Azzopardi for Lucas’s room, of which I will only tell you that it will have a bunch of stripes.  Yeah!

 

 The top is a motif by Amelia Lancaster.  Bellow, Ikea’s selection of Matisse motifs.   We also got one or two of those.

    I love Matisse! I think that many people turn to prints and then include some original art. I mean who can afford an original Matisse!

    Julie you might like my latest artist feature, he is quite acclaimed and Matisse is one artist who has inspired him!
