How to lay out and hang paintings?
Council one:
you will get the best effect, if a framed reproduction or painting will take 2/3 free space next to a group of furniture, dresser or couch.
You can get it with one large image or a composition of several smaller ones.
When creating a composition from several reproductions, design them close to each other.
This will give a nice effect of an additional window in the room.
Another one works:
hang reproductions like this, so that the level of our eyes falls in the middle of it.
Usually it is 160-170 cm from the floor.
In places where you often stay in a sitting position, this level is significantly reduced.
You can get the effect of a gallery by hanging reproductions of various sizes so that their center is always 150 cm above the floor.
If you can, by adding to the smallest passe-partouts, bring them to a common dimension and hang them in a line at eye level.
Thirdly:
reproductions of a similar theme, hang in identical frames, maintaining symmetry.
Compose them with other interior design elements.
Reproductions on various topics, framed in different frames look better in an asymmetrical arrangement.
It is important to group larger images with larger ones, and smaller with smaller.
Fourthly :
for balancing large furniture, a set will serve you best 2 – 3 reproductions in expressive frames with strong colors or a wide cross-section.
Always hang them at eye level.
Fifth:
the effect of an orderly space is best achieved by hanging the pictures next to each other, at equal intervals.
Even with very diverse furniture, their rhythm calms the interior.
Sixthly :
over the couches, with armchairs, place the art prints 10cm higher than the backrest.
If you don't have a measuring tape, use your hand with your fingers folded, its width is just that distance.
Do the same for measuring the distance between the pictures.
When grouping more pictures, the minimum distance between them is 5 cm.
