5 Styling Tips from Interior Designer Chloe Arnott (Featuring Gioia Wall Art)

Great styling isn't about buying more—it's about choosing better. Interior designer Chloe Arnott of Ambleside Styling creates spaces that feel collected, calm, and deeply personal. Her secret? Five simple rules, with Gioia Wall Art as the finishing touch.

Why Gioia Wall Art?

At Gioia, we've curated over 6,000 pieces organized by room, color, and named interior styles like Japandi, Coastal Luxe, and Cottagecore. This makes it easy to find art that fits not just your wall, but your lifestyle. Chloe's styling philosophy aligns perfectly with our approach: intentional, mood-driven, and timeless.

1. Layer Textures (Then Add Art)

Texture creates depth. Combine linen with wool, smooth ceramics with woven baskets, jute rugs with soft throws. Once your textures are layered, add a Gioia piece to anchor the look.tobiasoliverinteriors+1

Try: Landset, Set Of 2 by DAN hobday (70x70cm Framed Canvas). Earth-tone abstracts that bring warmth to layered living rooms.

2. Curate, Don't Clutter

The era of matched sets is over. Today's homes feel collected, not catalogued . Limit your palette to 2–3 warm neutrals, repeat key materials through rooms, and display only what you love .

Try: One statement Gioia piece. Desert Green by Pamela Munger (120x180cm Framed Canvas) creates a calming focal point without visual noise .

3. Add Meaningful Artwork

Art is Chloe's non-negotiable finishing layer. It should reflect the room's mood and complement surrounding textures—not match your sofa.

At Gioia, art is organized by how you actually shop: by room (living room, bedroom, nursery), by color palette, and by interior style. Whether you're drawn to serene Japandi minimalism, cozy Cottagecore charm, or bold Coastal Luxe energy, there's a piece that feels like you.

Best sellers:

• Landset, Set Of 2 – Warm earth-tone abstracts
• Desert Green – Large-scale organic greens

4. Always Add Greenery

Plants soften hard edges and add life. Use a mix of heights: tall floor plants, mid-level pots, small succulents on shelves .

Styling tip: Place greenery near your Gioia artwork to create a natural frame. This works especially well with botanical or earth-tone pieces like Desert Green, enhancing the biophilic design trend dominating 2026 .

5. Use Warm Ambient Lighting

Harsh overhead lights kill mood. Layer warm ambient lighting at different heights: floor lamps with fabric shades, table lamps to highlight art, candles for evening warmth .

Pro tip: Position a lamp to cast soft light across your Gioia canvas. This brings out texture and depth, making abstract pieces like Landset feel even more dimensional.
