Hey guys and gals! I am in need of your opinion! I know that I want to hang an oversized map on the large wall in our study, but I can't decide on which one. I have three options below and a poll at the bottom. If you would be so kind as to vote for your favorite (and leave a comment as to why it's your favorite if you can!), I would appreciate it sooo much! Keep in mind that the rug in the photos below may not be staying... the curtains are a sure thing though! Click on the link in the caption for each picture if you want to see the actual map. And click
here for a reminder of the idea board I put together for this room.
Thanks so much for your opinion!
Which map option do you like best?
Im sorry you left the option there! LOL. I hate the map idea. I think you are so super creative that a MAP is too serious. :(
ReplyDeleteLove the map idea for the study! I bought an antique-looking globe for my office and I love it. I chose Option 2 because it looks most like a serious map. Option 1 is too colorful -- looks more like abstract art to me, but Option 2 just spoke to me. Love your color scheme for that room!
ReplyDeleteI think Map 2 matches best but, I agree with dwtimes, I bet there is something even more creative you could do!
ReplyDeleteOh no!! Well my other idea was to do a big periodic table, which Greg totally nixed... so it could have been worse. (I'm such a nerd, haha). Thanks for your candor guys... gives me something to think about!
ReplyDeleteHello! I just started following your blogs because we are in the process of building a Ryan Homes Ravenna in VA! I love all of your decor and style, thanks so much for sharing! Looking forward to more of your projects! Oh and I like the 3rd map, I liked the second one but the third one has a little brighter coloring that makes me like it the best!
DeleteThanks for stopping by Amber!
DeleteI like option 3... it seems to match the room the best in my opinion. Option 2 would be my second choice.
ReplyDeleteLove the map idea! We too plan to put a world map in our future office space to mark places our family have travelled to. I am not sure what your furniture layout would be, but I would love a bigger map that would take up amost the entire wall. I was a little torn between Options 1 and 2 but decided to pick Option 1 because it's more playful and just looks like an abstract art at first glance... but then it's a map! Cool!
ReplyDeleteI like 1 because it is "modern" and 3 because the lighter background really "pops" off the wall. The second one is all too similar of colors and it just kinda blends in with the wall. Best of luck!
ReplyDeleteMy eye is drawn to option 1, but I would look at other options. Have you considered abstract artwork?
ReplyDelete*colette* what color again on the walls is this in your study?
ReplyDelete(sorry my questions sounded like yoda, it's early)
Hi Asia - the paint is Woodsmoke by Glidden.
DeleteCool thanks!
