The living room carries the most weight in a home, it is where the eye lands first. In this edit, we bring together bold, larger-scale works meant to anchor a room and hold their own against the space around them.

SoldThe living room is where most people hang their largest piece, so we built this edit around scale. It brings together 77 works that can hold a main wall, from mid-sized canvases to pieces six feet across. The artists include Iñigo Acuña, Felix Catarata, Jerico O. Espada, Jhon paul Alivio, Carlito T. Vidal Jr. and Kate Callangan, working in Metro Manila, Cebu, Leyte and Mindanao.
You will find two directions here. One is abstract work in acrylic and mixed media, which suits a room that already has pattern and furniture competing for attention. The other is realist painting, which gives the eye a subject to settle on. Every listing gives the exact size in inches, so you can tape the outline on your wall before you decide.
68 are available now, from ₱5,000. Each work is a one-of-one original sold by the artist, and your payment is held in escrow until you confirm it arrived. How buying works explains the steps. Furnishing other rooms too? See the Bedroom Edit and the Dining Room Edit.
A common rule of thumb is a piece about two thirds the width of the sofa, hung so its centre sits near eye level. Each listing shows the width and height in inches, so you can compare it with your wall before buying.
It varies by piece. Each listing states whether the work is framed in its details, next to the size, medium and year.
Yes. Every artwork page lets you message the artist directly, and you can also leave a comment on the listing. Buyers often ask about colour accuracy, the edges of the canvas and how the piece will be packed.
