Hanging Contemporary Wall Art in Large Spaces

With oversized wall art, it's sometimes difficult to know how high or low to hang it. To be honest, a lot depends on the space in which you're hanging the artwork. The height of the ceilings, the number of pieces you are hanging, the size of the artwork as well as what's in the room can help determine the best possible viewing space for your mural. Most of our artwork is large and can be somewhat intimidating to hang, so kindly take note.

I found this great article on how to accomplish this! Check it out: http://interiordec.about.com/od/artindecorating/a/Gwheretohangart_2.htm. Steps 1-3 are especially pertinent. Here's a quick summary of points I liked:

1. Hang artwork higher in places where you'd normally stand, such as a hallway or entryway. Hang artwork lower in a room where you'd normally sit.

2. Relate the artwork to things around it. With large artwork, hang so the bottom of the artwork is 6-12 inches from the top of the furniture.

3. If you're hanging tall artwork, place it so that the top 1/3 is near eye level.

Best of luck! As always if you have any questions, please feel free to call or email us. (1-866-316-9481, info@modernmural.com) Cheers!
