Pictures That Personalise Your Walls
Pictures tell people who you are. Landscapes, botanical prints, family photos and architecture all set a different mood. Choosing and hanging them well makes a big difference.
One Statement or a Gallery Wall?
- Single statement – one large picture above a sofa or fireplace feels calm and confident.
- Pairs – two matching pictures side by side create balance.
- Gallery wall – a mix of sizes and frames tells a richer story.
Gallery Wall Tips
Start with the largest piece in the centre. Build outwards with smaller frames. Keep 5 to 8cm between frames. Repeat one frame colour to tie the display together. Lay everything out on the floor first.
Choosing Frames
Black frames look smart and modern. Gold frames add warmth and glamour. Natural wood suits relaxed, Scandi and country homes. Mounts give pictures room to breathe.
Hanging Height
Hang the centre of a picture at around 145 to 155cm. Above furniture, leave 20 to 25cm gap. Keep pictures in proportion to the wall and furniture.
Protecting Pictures
Avoid direct sunlight, which fades prints. Don't hang pictures above radiators or in steamy bathrooms. Dust frames with a soft cloth.
