Whether you have an existing collection to put up in a new home or recently purchased some eclectic photographs, you want to display artwork in the best way possible. Here, the professional framing team at Seattle Custom Framing in Washington share a few different ways to hang your picture frames and wall art to inspire guests and create a cohesive look to the space. 

How to Hang Wall Art

1. Choose a Color Scheme

Go for lively colors if you want to add more energy or stick with a neutral palette to draw attention to another focal point in the room. You can also choose the color scheme based on the artwork’s hues. For example, black and white photos match well with picture frames in those shades. On the other hand, lighter colors such as pastels and watercolors complement light wooden frames. 

2. Hang Them in a Grid

This style works well for pieces of art that are part of the same series or are similar in terms of color and composition. To achieve this unique look, hang the photos at least two to three inches apart from each other.  

3. Use an Asymmetrical Pattern

When you’re creating this design, place one large picture frame in the middle of the wall and add smaller pieces around it. Measure and cut out pieces of paper to help you place the artwork in the right spaces—this will also give you an idea of what the finished room will look like before you begin hammering picture frames to the walls.
