If you are redesigning or decorating a room, or house, care has to be taken where your piece of art is to be displayed. Even if you have bought a picture on impulse there are a few tips that will not only enhance the picture but its surroundings.
As a good rule of thumb it is good to hang a picture so that its centre is roughly at eye level. If you have a grouping of pictures then also the centre of the group should be at approximate eye level.
Wall size.
Picture framing.
Picture grouping.
Help, advice and ideas.
As a final tip - try to keep pictures away from bright sunshine, as they will fade over a period of time.
Positioning your pictures is not a science, but a bit of planning and attention will no doubt give you years of joy.
