Space Wall Decor

Space Wall Decor

Space wall decor is canvas artwork of the sky beyond the atmosphere: Earth from orbit, the Moon, Mars, nebulae, galaxies and the astronauts and rovers sent out into it. Tiaracle holds 1,479 space prints. Eighty-seven percent are digital art and renders, 54 percent carry a cinematic mood tag and 50 percent a mysterious one. Black is tagged on 68 percent and blue on 68 percent. Thirty-nine percent are marked for a bedroom, which is unusually high for a dark subject. Every piece is printed to order.

What Counts As Space Wall Decor?

Five groups. Earth seen from orbit, including night-side city lights and sunrise over the curve of the planet. The Moon, in every phase and often over a landscape. The planets, with Mars and Saturn the most common. Deep-sky subjects: nebulae, galaxies, star fields and constellations. Human spaceflight: astronauts, rovers, launches and stations. Invented worlds and starships sit in Sci Fi Wall Art instead, though the two collections overlap where a real subject is rendered rather than photographed.

Which Space Subjects Appear Most?

By title frequency: Earth, planet, space, Moon, alien, nebula, galaxy, Mars, spiral, sunrise, astronaut, Milky Way, black hole and constellation. Earth is the most common single subject, which surprises people who expect deep space to lead. For narrower pages, Moon Wall Art, Nebula Wall Art, Galaxy Wall Art, Milky Way Wall Art and Solar System Wall Art all sit inside this subject.

What Colours Dominate Space Wall Decor?

Black at 68 percent and blue at 68 percent. Orange at 28 percent is the warm side: Mars, sunrise over the Earth's limb and the glowing edge of a nebula. Purple at 24 percent is nebula gas. White at 20 percent is the Moon and star fields. Green and yellow are both low. The consequence for a room is the same as for sci fi: these are dark prints. They look strongest on a pale wall and they need light. In a dim bedroom, a Moon or Earth print with a large bright subject reads better than a deep-space field.

Which Styles Suit Space Wall Decor?

Eighty-seven percent digital art and 14 percent photography, so most of this collection is rendered rather than captured. Fifty-four percent cinematic, 50 percent mysterious, 33 percent dramatic, 16 percent surreal and 15 percent serene. The serene end is where the Moon over a landscape and the calm Earth-from-orbit images sit, and that is the part of the collection that works in a bedroom or a nursery. The cinematic and dramatic end suits an office, a game room or a media wall.

What Size Should You Choose?

Use the two thirds rule: 48 to 54 inches over a 72 inch sofa, about 40 inches over a 60 inch desk or dresser. Hang the centre 57 to 60 inches from the floor. Space subjects divide into two sizing cases. A single round subject, a full Moon or a whole Earth, reads at almost any size because it is one clear shape. A star field, a nebula or a galaxy is made of fine detail and needs scale, so give those the larger option whenever the wall allows.

How Multi Panel Layouts Change A Space Print

A wide nebula or star field splits well across panels, because there is no single subject for a gap to cut through. A single planet or Moon centred in frame does not, since a panel break through the middle of a sphere is hard to ignore. Check the preview before choosing. Available layouts and sizes differ from image to image and are listed on each product page.

Which Rooms Suit Space Wall Decor?

Living room at 58 percent, office at 46 percent, bedroom at 39 percent, man cave at 37 percent and game room at 19 percent. The bedroom figure is the interesting one. Space is one of the few dark subjects that people actively want above a bed, and the reason is the serene subset: a Moon, a calm Earth, a soft nebula. Filter to the serene mood for a bedroom and to cinematic for an office or a media wall.

Common Mistakes With Space Wall Decor

The first mistake is hanging a deep-space image in a dark room, where a 68 percent black print becomes a void. Pick a bright single subject or add light. The second is buying a fine star field too small, so the detail that justified the image disappears. The third is combining a photographic Earth with a rendered nebula on the same wall, where the difference in light quality is obvious. Keep renders with renders.

What Pairs Well With Space Wall Decor?

Pair the Moon with Moon Wall Art for a phase sequence, which is the most popular multi-piece grouping in this subject. Pair a nebula with Galaxy Wall Art. Pair an astronaut with Sci Fi Wall Art for a game room. For a child's room, Solar System Wall Art is the clearer, more diagrammatic version of the same subject. Zodiac constellations connect to Astrology Wall Art.

Common Questions

What Is Space Wall Decor?

Space wall decor is artwork of astronomical subjects, printed for hanging. It covers Earth from orbit, the Moon, the planets, nebulae, galaxies, astronauts and rovers. Most of it is rendered rather than photographed, because telescope imagery is rarely available at print resolution. Tiaracle holds 1,479 space prints on canvas.

Is Space Wall Decor Good For A Bedroom?

Yes, if you choose from the calm end. Thirty-nine percent of this collection carries a bedroom tag. The pieces that work are the ones with a single bright subject and a soft background: a full Moon, the Earth at sunrise, a wide soft nebula. High-contrast deep-space scenes are better in an office or a game room.

What Is The Difference Between Space And Astronomy Wall Art?

In this catalogue they are the same subject seen at different scales. Astronomy leans toward deep-sky objects, constellations and instruments; space includes those plus Earth, the Moon, the planets and human spaceflight. This page carries both, which is why it holds 1,479 prints.

What Size Moon Print Works Above A Bed?

Take two thirds of the bed width. A queen bed is 60 inches, so about 40 inches of artwork. A king is 76 inches, so 50 to 54 inches. A round subject like the Moon reads well as a square or a single centred panel. Leave 6 to 8 inches between the headboard and the bottom of the canvas.
