I'm especially exited today because after four long living-with-rental-furniture-months we are finally getting our stuff tomorrow. It's play time! I have a pretty clear idea of where things are going to go, but boy can't that change? One thing that I'm certain though is the gallery walls I want to create around the house. I'm a big fan of picture cluster walls and I've realized that when there is a lot of different ways to create them and/or to display them, each produces a different background. From a complete harmonious and balanced display, to careless and Bohemian one to a more eclectic grouping. Each and everyone translates the personal lifestyle of their owners, as it should be.
For creating a harmonious and balanced gallery wall is good to keep things simple and hang each picture at a same distance vertically and horizontally speaking. One thing to keep in mind is to keep all frames and matting in the same color.
I posted this
kitchen designed by Pablo Paniagua (above) more than three months ago. The entire house is worth to see but I love the art in this kitchen
This photographs hanging from a metal cord is a great idea to keep your walls undamaged.
For a more careless bohemian look, using old frames and not being a perfectionist freak (aka every picture perfectly straight) would do.
And last but not least is the Eclectic gallery wall. While using different frames and probably matting as well, it's always a good idea to keep a somewhat similar distance between them as well. Enjoy!
