Furniture / Household Appliances / interior decoration website
French term or phrase: Décorations en image
I am currently translating the MOSCHE website (www.ateliermosche.com) and the term 'Décorations en image et matière & installations artistiques' appears at the foot of each page. Presumably it refers to pictures to be used as wall decorations, but I want to find an equivalent concise and snappy phrase in English.
