How a Copenhagen-based online gallery is the hottest place for posters right now

By EVE HERBERT

Collecting pictures for your walls is a lifetime’s work. It takes time, and a real collection comprises lots of different things. A mix of old and new things, small pictures and large ones, posters, paintings and photography. And for anyone with wall space to spare, Copenhagen-based The Poster Club is a good starting point.

This online emporium offering a unique selection of high-quality posters and art prints from both upcoming and established artists. Inspiration comes from trends in Nordic lifestyle, fashion and interior design, combining the gallery’s roots in Copenhagen and the Scandinavian culture with new and innovative technology in the creative industry.

While the selection is vast, it’s wellorganised, with categories including Abstract, Architecture, Botanic, Figurative, Geometric Shapes, Line Art and Objects. The Poster Club Collection is handpicked selection of art prints, created by different artists, photographers and designers exclusively for The Poster Club and curated inhouse. They’re always looking for new talent and emerging artists are invited to submit works for consideration.

In terms of display, Poster Club’s frames are simple and stylish, and come in a variety of colours. While the typical Scandinavian white walls have a crisp quality about them, an extensive palette ranging from neutrals to pops of saturated colours can enhance the mood of a space. “I like to have a neutral base of beiges, greys and a bit warmer shades like sand or yellow. These colours tend to smooth everything out, making your home restful for your eyes,” says Poster Club’s in-house stylist Charlotte. She explains that we are met with so many impressions during the day, that a calming and recreational environment at home is a must. “However,” she says, “that does not mean that you should not incorporate brighter elements. We are all different, and at the end of the day the most important thing is that you love your home.” theposterclub.com
