1. The Classic Grid

A grid layout is perfect for those who love symmetry and order. Here's how to achieve it:

Select Your Art: Choose a series of prints or canvases with a common theme or color scheme.

Measure and Plan: Use a ruler and pencil to mark the spots where each piece will go. Ensure equal spacing between each frame for a clean look.

Stick and Adjust: Apply Whelhung's 3M tabs to the back of your art and stick them to the wall. Our system allows for easy adjustments, so don't worry if you need to realign.

2. Eclectic Mix

If you prefer a more relaxed, bohemian vibe, an eclectic mix might be your style:

Mix and Match: Combine different types of art, including prints, canvases, and even objects like mirrors or clocks.

Varied Layout: Arrange your pieces in a non-linear fashion. Start with the largest piece in the center and build outwards.

Layer and Overlap: Don't be afraid to layer pieces or let them slightly overlap for a more dynamic look.

3. Linear Layout

For a sleek, modern feel, try a linear layout:

Horizontal Line: Hang your artwork in a straight horizontal line. This works well above furniture like sofas or beds.

Vertical Line: Alternatively, a vertical line can draw the eye upwards and add height to your room.

Consistency: Keep the spacing between each piece consistent to maintain a streamlined appearance.

4. Asymmetrical Balance

Achieve a balanced yet dynamic look with an asymmetrical layout:

Anchor Piece: Choose a larger piece as your focal point and place it slightly off-center.

Balance with Smaller Pieces: Surround it with smaller pieces, balancing the visual weight across the wall.

Experiment: Play around with the arrangement until it feels right. With Whelhung's easy-to-adjust system, you can experiment without worry.

Tell a story through your gallery wall by grouping related pieces:
