A gallery wall is more than just an arrangement of frames and posters – it’s a reflection of your world, your rhythm, your eye for beauty. Whether you’re drawn to minimalistic calm, vintage nostalgia or botanical flourishes, the secret lies in mixing styles with intention and hanging with care. Here’s how to create a gallery wall that truly feels like home.
1. Find Your Foundation – Room First, Then Mood
Start with the space. A gallery wall in the living room has a different vibe than one in the hallway, kitchen or bedroom. Think about what the room already says and how art can elevate it. Want warmth and softness? Try mixing Cottagecore with Botanical interior prints. Leaning sleek and curated? Let Modern meet Minimalistic interior for an understated yet bold wall.

2. Mix Sizes – With Balance in Mind
A good gallery wall plays with scale. Combine a larger statement piece in 50x70 or 40x50 with smaller 30x40 or 21x30 prints to keep the eye moving. Don’t be afraid of asymmetry – just keep balance in mind. If you want to make seasonal switches easy, try pairing everyday designs with seasonal ones, so you only need to swap one or two posters at a time.
3. Blend Styles, Not Just Posters
Some of the most compelling gallery walls mix Art Deco lines with Romantic softness or Scandinavian simplicity with a touch of Creative interior vibrancy. The key is a shared color tone, theme or feeling. It’s the harmony between contrast that brings a gallery wall to life.
4. Plan First, Hang Later
Lay your posters on the floor or use painter’s tape on the wall before committing. Take a photo and step back. Too heavy on one side? Add a lighter sketch or a floral print. Not sure about spacing? Keep 3–5 cm between frames for a clean, gallery-like impression.
5. Let It Evolve
Don’t think of your gallery wall as fixed. Art grows with you. Add a new artist discovery, swap a poster to reflect the season, or reframe a classic to match your changing interior.
