Art Hanging Guide

This guide covers everything you need to hang art correctly in your home, from measuring and spacing to choosing the right fixtures for each wall type. The standard centre-of-frame height is 145–150 cm from the floor, and art above furniture should span roughly two-thirds the width of the piece below it. Order samples for $4.99 AUD to test your choices before committing.
