VT Home: 13 Stunning Sculptural Statements

While this home may feel a bit sterile or museum-like, notice the collection of pieces that actually reflect the home owner’s interest.

Personalizing your home with art is one of the most exciting stages of design and it’s also the perfect opportunity to express your own unique style and make a powerful statement. Clients who are true collectors will often design an entire room around a piece of art or sculpture.

The most expected places that people tend to use sculptural artifacts are in bookcases or consoles. A more daring approach is to use a sculpture as the centerpiece in a room—perhaps in front of a window or flanking a doorway. A sculpture resting on a pedestal and lit from above at the end of a long (or even short!) hallway can be quite a statement piece.  If you have a classic home, using a contemporary piece might be the unexpected juxtaposition you need to give your home a fresh new look.

Scroll through for 13 stunning statements that will get your creative juices flowing and inspire you to add a new dimension to your home.

In this Gramercy Park dining room, this Ancient Mesopotamian artifact from 350 B.C. blends beautifully within the sexy and masculine ’70s bachelor pad vibe. Notice the Vladmir Kagan chaise, the Ying Yang ottoman, and the Paul McCobb dining table. All items available at Highstyledeco.com
