I came across this post about metal hanging wall art and felt it really identifies many of the benefits of using wood for hanging wall art as well. In fact, wood is actually cheaper when it comes to producing my pieces of art, which in turn is cheaper for YOU… enjoy!
Metal is at the top list of decoration materials in the 21st century. Apart from its common industrial use, metal turned into a popular modern design element. Today we can see sculptures, paintings, and many more made of metal representing contemporary art in the most respected modern art galleries. Metal has a number of benefits both artistically and organically.
#1 Positivity
Concrete is surely a must in today’s world when we take the construction speed and need of the increasing urban sites into consideration. Even though we try our best to turn concrete into a cuter, warmer element it does not always work for us. Painting the walls or using wallpaper breaks the cold effect of concrete to some degree but we still need one more thing to call a place “ours”. The wall decor concept comes in handy at this point for one last touch. By that means, a new era in wall decor is now in the air; organic materials. Finally, people changed their old-school artistic point of view on choosing wall art and began to look for more modern pieces. Metal presents its characteristic features in wall art as well as any other subject it touches. The cold, dark, numb concrete, which is most of the walls, softens and owns character with metal.
#2 Flexible Design Concepts
Metal is a flexible decoration option, we don’t mean you can bend it in and out. What we mean is that you can use metal décor in various interior and outdoor design concepts such as; contemporary and abstract design, high-tech or futuristic design, Scandinavian design, industrial design, vintage design, and rustic design. See, no need to worry if your furnishing style is suitable for metal decoration or not. There are various colors and concepts in metal wall art that are suitable for your existing furnishing style.
#3 Durability and Adaptability
The durability and adaptability of metal let you have your decoration objects for decades if you wish. Unlike other materials, metal stays new and durable for decades, in addition to this, its surface also enables you to change colors with a simple spray paint effect whenever you want to change. If you are using the object outdoors, all you need to do is to cover the metal with a waterproof layer coat to prevent rust.
#4 Eco-friendly and Sustainable
Synthetic and plastic materials are losing their trend each day, as we started to understand their costs to human health and to nature. Most architectural design innovations are now focusing on organic elements and minerals. Wood and metal are the most preferred of those as they reflect the organic features of nature in urban spaces. Unlike plastic, metal art can be created from a recycled object as well and it can be recycled for another use. This creates a huge positive impact on ecology and makes one feel better for choosing such a way in their decoration.
#5 Customizable
Most metal art comes in 3D form, which lets you add some personal touches. We do not recommend you to put heavy items on your wall art but you can always personalize it with colourful ribbons or small notes. For example, if you bought a metal world map, you could stick little magnetic pins on approximate locations you have visited. Just saying! 
#6 Uniqueness
Metal wall art is usually produced on demand and except for some trendy models there are boutique producers that come with unique designs. They are easy to find online with a little search. Plus, most of these producers offer custom designs for their customers by which you can decide the colour, size, and details of your dream wall art.
