Begin by envisioning the atmosphere you want to create in your space, whether it’s an industrial-inspired loft, a sleek modern living room, a chic contemporary setting, or an eclectic stairwell. Consider the room’s color palette, furniture, and overall aesthetic as your guiding light when selecting art pieces.
The charm of a gallery wall lies in its diversity. Embrace a mix of sizes, styles, and mediums to create visual interest. You can mix hand-drawn art works, prints, and photographs: from architectural pen sketches to abstract masterpieces – ensuring you find the perfect pieces to complement your vision. Only choose pieces you love and that speak to you. Integrate pieces that tell your personal story e.g. with black and white photos of your last holiday. Choose art that carries a unique narrative, making it the perfect addition to any style-oriented home and a great conversation starter with guests.
Although a gallery wall thrives on the eclectic mix, it is important that there is an element that binds the pieces together. This can be achieved especially well through the choice of color. Neutral colors, particularly black and white, have an incredible ability to tie diverse art pieces together seamlessly. Incorporate black or white frames to create a cohesive look that suits the modern or industrial style of your space. Artmefree’s prints and posters can be easily framed to fit the aesthetic you desire.
Consider designating a focal point within your gallery wall, especially in modern living rooms or eclectic staircases. A larger or more detailed piece can draw the eye and become a central element. Placing one of my statement canvas prints in the center can effortlessly elevate the entire ensemble.
Opt for larger formats. One of the most common mistakes with gallery walls is to work with elements that are too small. This creates unrest and fails to achieve the desired effect. So go for large formats and then add smaller pieces to fill the gaps and edges.
Experiment with different layouts before committing to the final arrangement. Lay the focal artworks on the floor to visualize how they interact with the smaller pieces you bring in, keeping in mind the specific layout dynamics of your space. A good idea is to work with placeholders in the form of empty picture frames or pieces of cardboard before you commit to a certain artwork in a certain scale. This way you can see what fits and what you may want to change: one of the pictures may need to be larger or smaller than originally intended, or in landscape format instead of portrait format. The artmefree-shop offers you the flexibility to then order the right motif in the right size.
While puzzling around with the pieces on the floor, take a photo of the layout that you like best. Transfer it to the wall by again starting with the largest pieces. Once again, it can be helpful to work with pieces of cardboard first and stick them to the wall with masking tape. This way you can easily reposition them without having to make holes in the wall. When you are happy, replace the patch holders with the artworks. And voila, your unique gallery wall is ready to be admired!
