Well - the most obvious thing is to have the posters match theme-wise.
Personally I like the Spanish themed ones the best (inc the one with the gypsie looking lady) and the beach/bicycle ones the lest - but that's because i shy from anything remotely sporty.
1, 7, 10, 13 are all lovely prints :) I agree that the chair shape you've drawn there is quite phallic and I think that might be a part of the charm.
I also suggest: One giant houseplant - tall rather than wide against one wall instead of a hat/coat rack. Kill the television and replace it with a fishtank! Then you should find a giant panda on ebay and position him on the couch to frighten potential burglars :)
Oooh, you might be right with the houseplanty business. Issue with the floors is NO WATER. So a nice big bowl underneath might be needed.
How exciting! Alli packs her stuff tomorrow and moves it all on Saturday, so I have all sorts of diagrams and plans and to do lists and business. I'm a planner, more-so at home than anywhere else. Can't effing wait!
YAY! House shiftery! Lots and lots of fun :) And there are plenty of nice, sensible ways to keep water off the floor with plants. For example, keep the usual little dish that comes with the pot underneath the plant, and do not over water. If water is dripping on the floor, it doesn't just damage the floor but also kills the plant! Go for one of those oldschool Decor pots with the self-watering whatsit, they can only drip if you fill them past the top lip of the pot and by that time you should have fish in the pot. More plants! More plants!
I like the 'Eat Always Spanish Fruits' one the most, and I think maybe there was an Italian something whatsit one which seems to have disappeared that appealed to me. Also the other Spanish themed one (#10) as a third choice. I think it's the colours of the Spanish ones that appeal to me. #13, 'Valencia 1917' as a fourth choice, again, probably because of the colours.
#9 and #10 might look pretty good side by side with the similar layout and black/yellow colours. I don't think they need to match theme-wise. :)
Least favorite ones are the naked guy with the bike, and the gypsy in #4

But whilst scanning my friends page in order to catch up after a week of no internet that orange chair thing looks a bit... well... phallic...

Pick them up tomorrow, can't wait to slightly disturb the neighbours by placing them on the balcony!
