The walls have been beautifully painted, furnishings are perfectly set, and rugs have been laid down where you needed them to be. But you sense something is missing. The addition of art could oftentimes be that missing puzzle.

This article will provide you some of the framing services in Singapore and advice from the expert themselves. Learn how to hang art like a pro and how to make the most of each display.

Trust Your Instincts

“I’d say 90% of the time, we just go by what looks good,” ILevel’s David Kassel says.

This statement can be exceptionally true when hanging art in any space affected by furnishings and architectural elements such as mantels or archways. However, some things should be taken note of.

For starters, avoid hanging your art too high. This is a common mistake and happens to nearly everyone. When a piece is hanged high, it will look like floating around on its lonesome. Instead, have someone hold the piece while you observe from seated and standing positions. When in doubt, hang low as it helps the artwork to blend well with furniture and architecture.

Use A Measuring Tape

When hanging art in what David calls “gallery-like spaces,” using a measuring tape is an extremely crucial step. These spaces include hallways, stairways, alcoves, and spaces not dominated by furniture or bold architectural elements.

When hanging pieces in such areas, make sure to keep the bottom of the frame 58” – 60” off the ground. If you are hanging one artwork on top of the other, make 58” – 60” the midpoint between the two. Then move the edges of the frames from one another, two inches apart.

Embrace Irregularity

Hanging a group of art pieces can be overwhelming, especially when you have multiple artworks that vary in size and a non-symmetrical pattern. The arrangements might flow like a cloud or loosely from a top-heavy triangle when it comes to art grouping. It might also fall into a grid-like pattern, a favorite for many homeowners.

Despite the many ways of hangings, the trick here is to start with the largest piece first. If you have a group of four pieces or more, make sure to anchor them in an imaginary vertical line. This helps in balancing out each piece and not putting too much ‘weight’ on one side.

Once you have made up your mind, translate the pieces to the wall by measuring each piece’s full height and width. Alternatively, you can lay out your art on the floor beneath the wall first and play around. Using a painter’s tape, mark off those outermost points on the wall. From there, you can start hanging your art.

Use The Images To Create Focus

There are some images with abilities to direct attention and sometimes create a mood. For instance, hanging multiple pieces that include a side-facing portrait. As opposed to facing away from it, try to position the portrait to look into the group.

If the same portrait is near a window, position the artwork to the side where it will be facing into the room, rather than gazing out the window. Similarly, dark pieces carry more visual weight. Hence, positioning them higher in a group can create a balanced look.

Do you wish to have a space that reflects your exquisite taste? With reliable framing services, the addition of art can instantly brighten a room and provide a pleasant atmosphere even on rough days. What are you waiting for?
