‘The Tortured Poets Department’ Aesthetic

To achieve the aesthetic of this album, you’ll need a few design pieces that represent the album. Of course, you’ll need posters and the actual album to start with. Incorporate a framed poster of the album in your living room space. If you’re looking to add more photos or color to the space, consider some Taylor Swift wall art or create a photo prints wall full of small prints pertaining to the album.

These can be printout photos of the album cover, photos of Taylor, pictures of poetry books, and aesthetically pleasing photos. For this aesthetic, try to incorporate lots of beige, white and black. Create an album wall full of Taylor Swift vinyl records, making the Tortured Poets album the focal point. Because this album is an ode to poetry, draw in this aesthetic using poetry books and coffee table books.

For other decor pieces, the art of music notes is a great way to incorporate this aesthetic, especially because of Taylor’s amazing songwriting capabilities. Use white flowers like water lilies, orchids and baby’s breath flowers in white or beige vases.

Incorporate decor items like white candles, knot decor, poetry books, vintage clocks, pearls, arch decor pieces and Greek statue decor.

TTPD Color Palette and Furniture

Part of achieving the Tortured Poets Aesthetic means choosing the right color. Use shades of white and beige throughout your home while incorporating small shades of cerulean and black. For furniture, beige and white couches and sofas work well with this aesthetic. Use textures such as rugs, shelves, vases, baskets and other decor items.
