Bozetto is now on Mecenat and Mecenat Alumni – which means that as a student or recent graduate, you can shop for posters and frames with a student discount directly at bozetto.se. That’s good news if you want to decorate your student room, spruce up your dorm, or give your first apartment the feel it deserves – without breaking the bank.
This guide explains how Mecenat and Mecenat Alumni work, why wall art is one of the smartest purchases you can make while studying, and how to easily activate your discount. And since we know students often shop thoughtfully: at the end, you’ll also find advice on which designs and formats work well in a small room without taking it over – and last long enough to come with you to your next home.
What is Mecenat and who can use it?
Mecenat is Sweden’s leading platform for student discounts. If you’re eligible for student support from CSN, you automatically get access to a digital Mecenat card – your student ID that opens the door to thousands of discounts at hundreds of brands, both online and in-store. It’s free to use.
Download the Mecenat app to your phone, log in to your account, and your digital card is created automatically when your CSN payments begin. Then simply show your card when you shop – in person or online. The app is available for iOS and Android and brings all your discounts, coupons, and limited-time promotions together in one place. The digital card serves as a full-fledged student ID and is accepted by all participating partners – including Bozetto.
Quick facts: Mecenat is free to use. The card is available to students receiving active CSN support. Mecenat Alumni activates automatically after graduation and is available for up to five years. Bozetto is on both platforms – you keep your discount all the way from your first semester until you’ve established yourself in working life.
What is Mecenat Alumni – the discount that lasts beyond graduation
Did you graduate recently, or are you about to? Then Mecenat Alumni is for you. When your final Mecenat card expires, your membership automatically converts to Mecenat Alumni – provided you used Mecenat during your studies.
Mecenat Alumni is available for up to five years after graduation and gives you access to a collection of discounts and offers specifically for those who have recently left student life. The logic is simple: the first few years after graduation are often financially challenging. You’re paying off student loans, establishing yourself in the job market, and perhaps furnishing your first real apartment. Mecenat Alumni is there to make that transition a little smoother.
"Wall art is the cheapest way to make a room your own. A blank wall communicates nothing – a carefully chosen design tells people who you are."

Student rooms and first apartments - wall art from day one
Posters and frames may be the single quickest and cheapest way to make a home feel like your own. A bare wall says nothing. A wall with the right design tells people who you are, what you like, and how you want your surroundings to feel. Students know this intuitively - and that’s exactly why wall art is always among the first things to go up in a new room.
The student room - your first wall of your own
Whether you live in a dorm, a student apartment, or rent a room from a private individual, your student room is often small, whitewashed, and impersonal when you move in. It takes five minutes and one poster to change that. Choose a design that reflects what you’re passionate about - a botanical print that opens up the room, an abstract piece with character, or something minimalist that will last throughout your studies.
A poster on the wall can also do more for your ability to focus than most people think. Research in environmental psychology shows that nature motifs and organic shapes in your field of vision lower stress levels. That’s one reason botanical prints are so popular in work and study spaces - they give your eyes something soft to rest on when your thoughts get stuck, without distracting you the way a screen feed does.
In a small room, it’s important to choose the size carefully. An oversized piece dominates and makes the room feel cramped. An A3 or 50×70 cm poster on the right wall adds character without taking up visual space. Choose a lighter design with plenty of open space in the composition - a botanical print, a minimalist piece, or a simple illustration - and the room will actually look bigger. Browse our bestsellers for designs that thousands of others have already chosen and love.
Your first apartment - for real this time
Moving from student life to adulthood is one of those times in life when you really want your home to feel right. Maybe you finally have a living room, a bedroom, and an entrance hall - and suddenly there are three bare walls instead of one. This is where Mecenat Alumni makes a difference.
Five years of alumni discounts cover the entire period when most people are getting established and furnishing their first real home. With the discount at Bozetto, you can build a gallery wall in stages: start with a striking focal piece and add to it as your taste and budget allow. It’s a smarter way to decorate than buying everything at once and regretting half of it. It’s also satisfying in another way - watching a wall take shape over the years gives your home a story that a quickly bought, all-at-once home never gets. Read more about how to choose the right poster as a gift - or for yourself - in our guide to posters as gifts.
Which posters are best for a student room?
Three ground rules apply no matter how big the room is, how long you live there, or what interior design style you prefer.
Choose artwork you won’t get tired of
A student room is a room you live in every day for several years. The artwork you choose should stand the test of time - it should really be like daily company, not just look good in an Instagram photo. Botanical prints and minimalist artwork pass that test better than most. They’re calm enough not to distract, and rich enough that there’s always something new to notice. Explore botanical posters and minimalist prints for timeless options.
Choose a size that suits the wall space
A3 (30×42 cm) and 50×70 cm are the most common sizes for student rooms. They’re large enough to stand out but small enough not to dominate. If you’re hanging one above a desk or bed, 50×70 cm is often the right choice - it fills the space without making the wall feel crowded. A shorter wall by the door or above a dresser is better suited to A3. Standard sizes also make it easy to find frames that fit right away, without having to place a custom order. That’s a practical way to save money: a standard wooden frame costs less and is easier to replace if you want to change the look later on.
Choose a frame that looks professional
A poster without a frame is a poster waiting to be finished. It doesn’t have to be expensive - a slim black or white wooden frame in the right size makes all the difference. It clearly separates the artwork from the wall, protects the paper, and makes the whole wall look more considered. A simple wooden frame transforms an A3 poster into a piece of art that looks thoughtfully chosen even in the most minimal student room. If you know you’ll be living at the same address for several years, it may be worth investing in a slightly thicker frame - it lasts longer and looks just as good in your next apartment. Browse our selection of wood and metal frames - all in standard sizes that fit Bozetto poster sizes right away.
Tip: Buying frames and posters separately? Stick to standard sizes: 30×40, 40×50, 50×70, 70×100 cm. All Bozetto poster sizes match standard frame sizes - you’ll never need to cut or adjust them. This saves both time and money, and you can take the frame with you to your next apartment.
