DISPLAY LIKE A PRO
Below are some tips to hang and display your art like a pro. Please reach out to us at info@giridesigns.com if you have any questions about this guide.
THE RIGHT HEIGHT
Many make the mistake of hanging their art too high. The center of your artwork should fall at about the viewer's eye level. A good rule of thumb is to hang your art so the mid-point is about 57 inches high. If the room has tall ceilings, you can display it a little higher. Pictured is Utah by Dan Hobday.
The Right Width
If you're hanging artwork above furniture, such as a sofa or console table, the width of the artwork should take up about 2/3 to 4/5 the width of the furniture. For example, if your furniture is 60" long, your artwork should take up at least 40" in width (this includes sets of art). This is not a hard set rule and you may have to go bigger or smaller depending on the space. Pictured is Cornwall by Dan Hobday.
THE RIGHT SPACING
If you're planning on hanging artwork next to each other, we recommend spacing the artwork about 3" to 6" apart. Same as the above rule, these measurements can be played with depending on the space. Pictured is Sea Scene by Jetty Home.
THE RIGHT DISTANCE
When placing artwork above a piece of furniture we recommend hanging it about 4" to 6" above the piece. Often customers will hang artwork too high, which disconnects the art from the furniture. Pictured here is Abstract Florals by Sophie Rodionov.
