Wall Art

What types of wall art does this collection include?

The collection spans several formats. Canvas prints bring soft, frameless texture and work well in living rooms and bedrooms. Framed prints add a crisp, finished edge. Metal wall art creates dimension and shine, and multi panel and gallery sets let you cover a larger area with a coordinated look.

Subjects range from abstract and modern to landscapes, botanicals and typography. The format and subject you choose should suit both the room's style and the size of the wall you are filling, so the piece feels at home rather than added on.

How do you choose the right size wall art?

Size is what makes wall art look intentional. As a rule, art above furniture should span about two thirds to three quarters of the width of the piece below it. Art that is too small looks stranded on a large wall.

How do you arrange a gallery wall?

A gallery wall lets several pieces work as one. Lay the frames out on the floor first to test the arrangement before putting any holes in the wall. Keep a consistent gap of about 2 to 3 inches between frames so the group reads as a unit.

Mixing in a mirror or a small object adds depth and keeps a gallery from feeling flat. Combining framed prints with decorative mirrors is a popular way to add light and variety to the arrangement.

How do you hang wall art, including without nails?

For most framed pieces, hang the center of the art around 57 to 60 inches from the floor, or a few inches above the furniture when placed over a sofa or console. Use a level, and anchor heavier pieces into a stud or a rated wall anchor.

If you cannot use nails, adhesive strips rated for the frame's weight hold lightweight art on smooth walls and are renter friendly. For heavier metal or glass pieces, a proper hook into the wall is safer. Always check the weight rating before relying on adhesive.

How do you match wall art to your room?

Pull a color or two from the art into the rest of the room, or choose art that picks up tones already present in your furniture and textiles. This repetition is what makes a piece feel chosen for the space rather than random.

Style matters as well: abstract and bold works suit modern rooms, soft landscapes and botanicals suit calm and traditional spaces. Wall art also pairs naturally with other wall decor such as shelves and clocks to build a complete wall.
