Encourage a moment of creativity with a stylish gallery wall. It's one of the easiest ways to add life and personality to your dwelling. For those who don't know where to start, consider these 4 tips in your pursuit to creating a striking arrangement that will impress all who visit.
1. First and foremost, collect, collect, collect. Use a mixture of content that you love, whether it be personal photographs, photography, art, framed ornaments, and other personal treasures.
2. Think about and size and frame. Are you looking for a more regimented, polished look? Or are you after a staked, eclectic bohemian vibe? If you're going for the former, choose similar frames and arrange the art evenly on the wall. The latter? Run wild when it comes to the frame size, shape and design choice.
3. Before committing to putting hooks on the wall, measure your wall space and lay your chosen works out on the floor. This will allow you to have a play with the arrangement. It can be helpful to take a photo of a few different layouts to see which one looks best on camera.
4. If you want your gallery to feature on a coloured wall, choose a shade that repeats itself in the works or complements them. Feeling bold? Choose a vivid hue like a coral or a rich navy which will draw focus to your art.
