Estonia - 14 September, 2026 - Jean Christophe Thery, founder of online wall-art company MusaArtGallery, has announced the publication of The Living Room Edit: How to Decorate a Living Room in 2026, a visual interior-design guide examining how artwork can influence the look, proportions and atmosphere of one of the most important spaces in the home.
The book approaches living-room decoration from a wall-art perspective, addressing a recurring challenge for homeowners: choosing artwork that not only looks appealing on its own, but also works with the scale, furniture, colors and architecture of a room.
Rather than treating wall art as a finishing touch, The Living Room Edit explores how artwork can serve as an early reference point for a broader interior-design direction.
“People often spend considerable time choosing furniture, flooring and lighting, and only think about the walls at the end,” said Jean Christophe Thery, founder of MusaArtGallery. “But artwork can establish the color balance, scale and personality of a room. The purpose of this book was to turn what we have observed through years of working with wall art into practical ideas that people can actually use.”
From E-Commerce Data to Interior Design Guidance
The book draws in part on Thery's experience developing MusaArtGallery and observing purchasing behavior across thousands of wall-art designs.
It includes 41 selected artworks, chosen from a catalog of more than 3,000 designs and informed by customer demand and sales activity. The selections are used as visual examples to demonstrate how different subjects, palettes and formats interact with contemporary interiors.
The guide addresses topics including artwork scale, positioning above furniture, color coordination, visual balance, lighting and the relationship between a focal artwork and the surrounding room.
It also examines several design directions influencing interiors in 2026, while emphasizing that successful rooms do not necessarily require frequent redesigns or constant adherence to short-lived trends.
“Trends can provide inspiration, but a room ultimately has to work for the person living in it,” Thery said. “Good decoration is often less about adding more objects and more about understanding proportion, placement and where you want the eye to go.”
The Growing Importance of Visual Identity at Home
The publication comes as consumers and design professionals continue to place greater emphasis on personalization, intentional interiors and the visual identity of residential spaces.
For MusaArtGallery, the book represents an extension of the company's broader work in online wall art into educational content designed to help consumers make more informed decorating decisions.
The project also reflects a wider evolution in e-commerce, where brands increasingly use first-party customer insights not only to develop products but also to create educational resources around the categories in which they operate.
While The Living Room Edit is focused specifically on the living room, many of its principles—including proportion, focal points, color repetition and artwork placement—can also be applied to bedrooms, offices, hospitality spaces and other interiors.
