Every now and then I need to visualize ideas for arranging paintings and prints for clients, thus I decided to put together some suggestions for home and office arrangements. The pictures in this post are from Pinterest and the rights belong to the respective authors.
A classic mounting of an artwork in the living room, above the couch. a common mistake is to place the painting too high on the wall. The height of the artwork should always be at the eye level when the person is standing.
Аrtworks with different sizes which are aligned at the lower edge. In order to avoid glares as a mirror effect, one option is to use anti-reflective or museum glass.
An ensemble from same-size paintings framed alike.
Unorthodox approach towards framing – two relatively small artworks are placed in simple frames with large mat so that they stand out from the wall and become a serious interior highlight.
A space arranged with different-size artworks. The white frames and mats are extremely pretentious, but in this example, they harmonise with the interior setting.
A narrow shelf for placing pictures and paintings which is very popular in the Scandinavian interiors. Available in IKEA in three colors– white, black and wood.
Every artist would be happy to have a whole wall for his/her paintings. In this example, you can see three same-size canvases which don’t need framing.
The lighting of the paintings is a long and distinct topic, but the best option is when the lighting is installed at a certain distance from the painting in order to avoid glares. I recommend spotlights from the ceiling, pointed to the artwork.
Arranging artworks on color wallsis one of my favorite. I recommend Levis satin paints which are outstanding as cover and easy to maintain.
