Graphic prints, bright colors and a good dose of humor. Do you dare with Pop Art?
The Pop Art style emerged in the 60’s, in the United States and England, and became a very original artistic movement.
One of its main characteristics are the strong colors and rounded shapes, which seek to integrate with images of the most popular culture of that time.
Advertising, comics and portraits of famous celebrities of the time occupy a prominent place, an example of which are the well-known works of Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtestein, whose posters are still today some of the best sellers worldwide.
One of the main tricks to achieve this look is to invade your home with posters or paintings: Coca Cola, Campbell’s soup cans and works by Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtestein immediately evoke the sixties aesthetic. Thanks to the

Color is everything. If you want to achieve this casual style in your interiors you should go for bright and vivid tones. Remember: contrasts are not an option, but a maxim.
Priority should be given to acid and tonic colors, bright colors such as orange, pink, yellow or green for walls, furniture and decorative objects. The key word for decoration is liveliness.
In this way, accessories and objects of different colors can be placed. The best known motifs of the 1970s are rounded geometric, kaleidoscopic, funky, and psychedelic shapes.
The wall is usually painted with two-tone, but if you want to go even further in your passion for Pop Art, kitsch wallpaper can be used.
In short, to adopt the Pop Art style it is important not to worry about the functional side. The atmosphere to be created is tonic, bright, and nonconformist.
Do you dare?
