Fabulous posters

If your living room already has a neutral palette (think warm whites, soft greys, or beige tones), a single large-format chic art print in the 70x100cm range will pull the room together without competing with your furniture. We'd go for something with muted, sophisticated tones and a clean composition. Hang it centred above the sofa so the middle of the print sits roughly at eye level. Our framed prints arrive ready to hang with proper fixtures already attached, so you can have it on the wall in minutes rather than spending your Saturday sourcing frames.

The single biggest thing that separates an expensive-looking gallery wall from a chaotic one is consistent framing. Choose one frame finish (we recommend our natural oak or classic black) across every piece. Then stick to odd numbers: three or five prints, not four or six. Keep spacing tight at around 5-7cm between frames and align either the centre line or the bottom edges. Using museum-grade giclée prints on thick matte paper gives that gallery-quality depth that glossy high-street prints just can't match. The result looks deliberate, polished, and genuinely chic.

For above the bed, measure your headboard width and aim for a print that's roughly two-thirds of it. In most UK bedrooms with a standard double, that means a 50x70cm or 70x100cm print works perfectly. Go too small and it'll look like an afterthought. For chic bedroom art prints, we'd pick something with a quiet, contemplative mood and softer tones rather than anything high-contrast, since you want the room to feel restful. Our frames use UV-protective acrylic glazing, so even if your bed sits near a window, the print won't fade over time.

High-quality art prints are called giclée prints, and the difference between a giclée and a standard poster is night and day. Giclée uses archival inks on thick, museum-grade matte paper, giving you rich colour depth and fine detail that holds up when you look closely. At Fab, we pair that with solid FSC-certified wood frames (no MDF, no veneers) and UV-protective glazing, and every framed print ships fully assembled and ready to hang. Thousands of our shoppers say the prints look even better than on screen, which is the opposite of what most people expect when buying art online.

Chic in interior design means something looks effortlessly put together, refined without being stuffy. Think clean lines, thoughtful colour palettes, and a sense of restraint. For wall art, that translates to prints with sophisticated compositions and tonal harmony rather than anything loud or gimmicky. A minimalist chic wall art piece in a quality frame does more for a room than a dozen decorative accessories. It's the design philosophy of doing less, but doing it properly, and it works in everything from a Scandi-leaning flat to a contemporary townhouse.
