ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for facilitating the decoration of an area, and particularly a surface such as a wall in a room, are provided. A user may view a virtual impression of the placement of selected artwork on a particular wall. The user provides an image of the area to be decorated, along with a reference scale associated with the area, to a server. The user views and selects an image of an artwork object from an available selection of artwork images, the artwork image having a corresponding size of the artwork object. The image of the artwork is scaled such that the ratio of the size of the artwork object and the size of the artwork image substantially corresponds to the ratio of the size of the area to be decorated and the size of the area image. The scaled artwork image is then overlayed on the area image and may be viewed by the user to provide a simulated image of the area and artwork.
