One way to make your AirBnB or VRBO vacation rental stand out from the competition is with some unique and exciting artwork. Artwork is one of the first things guests notice and great artwork can make a dull space exciting.
Artwork is probably the best bang for the buck decorating element beyond a fresh coat of wall paint. Quality framed artwork can elevate a space and make it look more expensive. Large canvas prints with bold beach scenes remind a visitor why they choose to go on vacation in the first place.
Fine art photography makes a listing POP! Scene of great beaches, calm nature scene or fun pop art images provides the listing surfer with just one more reason to choose your property over the competition.
Tips from successful AirBnB Hosts:
- Create visual interest with just the right amount of decoration
- Add a wall of color for high-contrast impact
- Highlight artwork, and consider alternative takes on art
- Add decor that sparks conversation
Create visual interest with art pieces such as a thoughtfully curated gallery, large-format photographs, or even 2D and 3D sculptures and other objects. For an alternative take, try featuring old photos, black-and-white photography, pencil sketches, graphic posters, maps, or old charts.
Framed artwork…feature them with high-quality matting and framing. If you can, avoid mass-produced artwork you might find elsewhere.
Pick a signature image from the portfolio of Edward Fielding and match a large canvas print over the living space sofa with matching coffee mugs in the kitchen. Perhaps include a coffee mug that matches the artwork as a takeaway item in the guests’ welcome bag so they can remember their holiday.
It’s always exciting to come across something you weren’t expecting, and unique, special pieces help spark conversation.
