Art leasing programs!! I've seen several of these pop up in larger cities recently. And I'm not talking about leasing prints, but ORIGINAL ARTWORK. It's a great way to keep professional and residential spaces looking fresh on an affordable budget!

Here's the one I've used in Chicago --> https://www.facebook.com/RevolvingCollectionsGallery


Trend Prediction: What Do You Think is The Next Big Thing?

What do people think of the art lease concept as an affordable way to hang original artwork at home or work? I have a friend who used an art lease consultancy in Chicago -- https://www.facebook.com/RevolvingCollectionsGallery -- and she had a really great experience working with them. I like the idea of being able to re-curate or rotate the artwork on a annual or bi-annual basis. I'm curious what others think of this concept?

Love this post - I find it very useful. I think another great way to dress up your apartment on a budget is thru art lease programs. I've personally used a cool art lease consultancy in Chicago called Revolving Collections Gallery -https://www.facebook.com/RevolvingCollectionsGallery - and it has worked out great! You can hang beautiful one-of-a-kind artwork in your apartment for a completely affordable monthly fee. It's awesome - and you're supporting local artists/designers!!

I feel like artwork would be the key -- as many people have already said -- but finding the right kind of art/framing/hanging mechanism to work with something as unique as carpeted walls will be the challenge. I have a friend who used an art leasing consultancy in Chicago when he first moved into his place and wasn't exactly sure what type of art would work best with his walls. For a pretty affordable price you can basically test out different pieces of art for a couple months at a time until you find what works best. This is the consultancy he used: https://www.facebook.com/RevolvingCollectionsGallery -- worth a look, I'd think.
