Gotta be # 2!

Number 2... needs to be about 6" lower though. Nutz about the light switches.

Lol! I am the same way about the light switches as well. They will be changed out for a darker or relocated...

.

While I like photo #2 better as a photo, I think that #1 works better in the space. A LOT better!

Why? Well, I don't think that the colours in the clouds in #2 work very well with the colours in the office - especially the brown woodgrain floor. Conversely, the strong primary colour in #1 works GREAT with the strong primary colour of the chairs, and also complements the brown floor perfectly.

I have trouble understanding why people think that #2 is a better match for this particular space; I am just not seeing how those colours are a better complement for this particular area.

If it were my office, I would definitely be using #1.

"Your" and "you're" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"They're", "their", and "there" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one.
"Fare" and "fair" are different words with completely different meanings - please use the correct one. The proper expression is "moot point", NOT "mute point".

Ha! Ha! Ha! I'm soooo undecided! So here's what I'm going to do. I'm going to get both printed and switch them out from time to time!

Win!Win!

#1 looks better with the red as it is mainly 1 color.
#2 doesn't stand out much, it has warm and cool colors in it and just complements itself.

With the red chairs, I would go with a 1 color-dominant picture to complement the red. The yellow is nice, or you could go with a vibrant blue, not a dark blue or it won't stand out from the wall. Something with a white frame would look good too.

#1 for me. It brightens the dark space better. Both are nice but I believe #1 works better in that space.
