How to Choose the Perfect Tapestry
for Your Space
A Maximo Laura tapestry is more than just decor—it is a narrative woven into fabric, a statement of culture, artistry, and emotion.
Whether you’re looking for a bold centerpiece or a more subtle option, selecting the perfect tapestry requires careful thought. This guide will help you curate a piece that harmonizes with your space.
1. Consider Size and Placement
The dimensions of your tapestry play a critical role in its impact. Before selecting a tapestry, measure your wall space to determine the ideal size.
A large-scale tapestry can serve as the focal point of a room, while a smaller piece can add an artistic touch to a more compact area.
Key Tips:
- For living rooms, position above a sofa or fireplace to establish a commanding focal point.
- In bedrooms, hang above the headboard to introduce warmth and tranquility.
- Hallways and entryways can benefit from long, vertical pieces that guide the eye and enhance the space.
2. Choose a Palette That Complements
Your Interior
Tapestries introduce depth and dynamism through color. Consider your existing interior palette and decide whether you want a tapestry to harmonize with or contrast against it.
Color Psychology & Selection:
- Warm tones (reds, oranges, yellows) create an inviting and energetic atmosphere.
- Cool tones (blues, greens, purples) bring a sense of serenity and introspection.
- Neutral tones (beige, gray, earth tones) offer versatility and subtle elegance
3. Select a Design That Resonates
Máximo Laura’s tapestries are visual poetry, interwoven with symbolism, texture, and movement.
When selecting a piece, consider the narrative it conveys and how it aligns with your personal connection to art, mythology, or nature.
Popular Themes & Their Essence:
- Mythology & Spirituality – Andean deities, celestial beings, and cosmic energy.
- Nature & Wildlife – Organic forms, birds, fish, and landscapes that celebrate life.
- Abstract & Geometric – Modern compositions that blend contemporary aesthetics with ancient traditions.
4. Understand the Cultural Symbolism
Máximo Laura’s work is deeply rooted in Andean cosmology, where symbols hold profound meanings. Choosing a tapestry becomes a spiritual dialogue between the artwork and its collector.
Key Symbolism:
The Sun (Inti) – Source of power, energy, and protection.
The Moon (Mama Killa) – Represents cycles, femininity, and intuition.
The Condor – A bridge between the earthly and spiritual realms.
5. Consider the Lighting in Your Space
Lighting can dramatically affect the way a tapestry is perceived. Natural light enhances vitality, while softer indoor lighting creates a more intimate feel. Experiment with different lighting conditions to see how the colors and textures come to life.
6. Framing and Display Options
While most collectors prefer to hang tapestries as they are, others choose framing or mounting options to create a structured presentation. Floating frames or textile hangers can elevate the look of your tapestry while protecting it.
