Styling Tips for Elegant Red Art Displays
Pair red abstract art with soft grey, beige, or ivory walls. Black or gold frames add controlled contrast. Use warm ambient lighting (not direct spotlight) to enhance texture depth. Complement with light neutral furniture and occasional metallic or glass decorative pieces for balance.
