Wall Art Guide

A room under the roof gives you two surfaces and only one of them is usable. The slope is a bad place for a framed print, so everything happens on...

Art hung above a piece of furniture stops being an independent object. It belongs to the sideboard or the desk underneath it, and it is judged against that piece rather...

Two or three frames in a row is the most common arrangement in any home and the one most often hung by eye. It does not need to be. A...

Two numbers decide this, and only one of them is the bed. The width of the bed sets how far the art should reach; the height of the headboard sets...

Measure the sofa, multiply by two thirds, and buy art that spans close to that figure. Everything else is refinement. A 240 cm sofa wants roughly 160 cm of art...

A2 measures 42 × 59.4 cm. We do not sell it. We are starting there because the single most common misunderstanding in poster sizes is that 50×70 is A2. It...
