Art in Your Space
See it in your space
The question we hear most in the gallery isn't about the art. It's about the wall. Here's what we tell people in person, and if you're still not sure, send us a photo and we'll help you choose.

Choosing the right size
Measure the furniture, not the wall
Above a sofa, bed or sideboard, aim for a piece about two-thirds of the furniture's width.
Go bigger than feels safe
Art nearly always looks smaller once it's hung. Almost everyone who sizes up is glad they did.
Hang it at eye level
Centre it roughly 145 to 150 cm from the floor, or 15 to 25 cm above a sofa or sideboard.
Try it with tape
Mark the size on your wall with painter's tape or newspaper and live with it for a day.
Paper, canvas and frames
Paper prints
Printed on archival cotton paper. Beautiful framed behind glass, from A4 up.
Canvas prints
Matte canvas, stretched and ready to hang. Made for larger walls.
Natural oak frames
Made to suit both, and every framed piece arrives ready to hang.
Send us a photo of your wall
Email a straight-on photo of your wall, its rough width and the piece you're considering. Steph or Dave will reply with the size and finish we'd hang there. No obligation, and it comes straight to us, not a help desk.
