Like the retailer's clothing offering, OU's art is aimed more at a younger audience (think teens and young adults) — but that's subjective. However, if you are looking for modern, chic and vibrant pieces, you will find them here.

Frequently Asked Questions

• When is it worth investing in a mural?

  "Wall art is always a good investment in design," says Epstein. "Art helps complete a space, adds a statement, connects color schemes, and helps complete the design aesthetic."

  CorrespondingInterior designer Jennifer Hunterby Jennifer Hunter Design, it depends. She encourages customers to buy pieces that appeal to them and make them happy. "However, if you view art as an investment, do your research and try to identify emerging artists." Fortunately, not all murals are exorbitantly expensive. You can find many affordable options by exploring the retailers featured here.

• What are the advantages of buying art online?

  Buying art online makes it so much easier to browse options, compare prices, and select custom sizes and frames. Buying a piece that you have personally found can feel special and specific - like you have found it or it has found you. Still, there's no denying the exponentially greater number of options available on the web.

• Should you frame murals?

  There are some exceptions, but in general, murals look better and last longer in a frame. However, getting a work professionally framed can be difficult and sometimes expensive, which is why Epstein suggests buying pre-framed art if you want to save on costs.

  As Hunter notes, the frame in which a work of art appears often encompasses as the artist intended. However, many online retailers allow you to choose the material, color, and thickness of your frame. In some cases, a custom option may be better for decorating your space.
