Frequently asked questions
How wide should wall art be above a sofa?
A common rule is about 60–75% of the sofa width so the composition feels balanced. Art that is too wide overwhelms the wall; art that is too narrow looks disconnected from the furniture below.
How do I plan spacing for a gallery wall?
Leave roughly 5–8 cm (2–3 in) between frames for a tight grid, or 15–24 cm for a looser salon layout. Keep the center of the grouping near eye level and align outer edges with the golden-ratio sections if you use our divider tool.
What height should artwork be above a bed or console?
Hang so the vertical center sits about 145–160 cm from the floor in living areas, or slightly lower above a bed headboard. Portrait orientation suits tall narrow walls; landscape works above wide sofas and sideboards.
