What's a good way to hang a picture? How to decide where to hang art pieces, and how do you group them together? Here are some guidelines.
 | Hanging frames on the walls requires to take into account : available wall space the number of frames the light. |
Consider grouping same-size pictures together in a four-square, to give the illusion of a larger picture.
When all of your frames are not matching sizes, try to balance the impact of the frames.
Always hang pictures at eye level. If you're hanging a picture over a sofa, you shouldn't leave a lot of wall space between the sofa and the picture.
Don't put one little picture on a large wall. It looks ridiculous. If you don't have enough artwork to fill up more space on a large wall, consider putting mirrors or a shadowbox in the grouping.
Conversely, don't overload a small wall with a large picture.
Consider resting pictures on shelving hammered directly on to a wall.
