There's a huge choice of decorative subjects. I can't choose for you, but I can give you a helping hand.
So I'm going to give you some tips on choosing decorative subjects for your walls. As with many things in life, you just need to ask yourself the right questions.
What colour palette do I like?
Do you want a colourful interior? Then opt for pictures with contrasts and choose bright colours. These eye-catching patterns:
What material to choose
If you want something that stimulates the eye and touch, choose textiles. They have a little something extra compared to posters and paintings. textiles like these improve acoustics:
Does the subject need to be framed
My friends often tell me that they already have the pattern, but don't know which frame to choose. You can avoid this problem by opting from the start for a framed picture or a photo on canvas. These designs are already available with the right frames and mats:

You can also do the reverse, i.e. first buy frames, then look for subjects that match. The format restricts the choice of motifs. And, if you really can't find a frame, you can ask a specialist to frame your paintings.
How many works of art do I want?
The more things you want to hang, the harder it is to decide, at least at first. So don't just take your colour or material concepts into account, but also your spatial conditions. Where should you put just one work and where a whole wall of pictures? The more space you have available, the more effective large posters and paintings are. The less space you have, the more images in DIN A5 format, for example, stand out.
To know how many works to hang, follow your intuition. Are there areas that seem empty? Add them up and you'll know how many paintings you need if you want to place at least one in each spot.
