Like the rest of the design world, we love a
gallery wall and for many reasons. It's a fun way to showcase a varied mix of
your artwork, to blend art with other collectibles and best of all, there are
no real rules! Which means you can really mix a gallery wall with whatever the
heck you want, something the rebel in us kinda loves.
We like to tie together different shapes and add a fun, unexpected piece to the wall like the "Q" seen above. A good tip is to start with the largest piece and work around that, lay all items out and start moving things around till you are satisfied...don't forget to take a picture of the placement before you start hanging!
We like the gallery wall to tell a story, the art should go together and have a similar theme. For
example, above we used the clients art from Brazil.
In this pretty master bedroom, we used family pictures and mementos around a mirror to create a vintage feel.
Don't be afraid to start the gallery wall around a TV and try to keep the spaces in between the items the same distance apart.
Great round-up and tips! Thank you ladies!
