Raymour & Flanigan Wall Art
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I ensure the wall art I choose fits well in my space?
Measure your wall space and consider the dimensions of the artwork. Leave at least 6-8 inches of space around the artwork to ensure it doesn’t look overcrowded.
Can wall art be hung in bathrooms?
Yes, but choose wall art that is moisture resistant or framed under glass to protect against the humid environment of bathrooms.
What type of hanging hardware is best for wall art?
The best hardware depends on the weight of the art and the type of walls you have. Use picture hooks for lighter pieces and wall anchors for heavier pieces.
What's the rule for the scale of wall art in relation to furniture?
Artwork should be about two-thirds the width of the furniture piece it's hanging over to create visual balance.
How high above furniture should wall art be hung?
Hang wall art 6-8 inches above the top of the furniture to link the art visually to the furniture without overwhelming it.
Can mixing different styles of wall art work in a single space?
Yes, mixing styles can add interest and depth to a room. Maintain a cohesive look by using a consistent color scheme or frame style.
What role do lines play in room design?
Lines can influence the perception of space. Vertical lines make ceilings appear higher, while curved lines soften the room's appearance.
What is the 60/30/10 color rule in interior design?
This rule helps in creating a balanced color scheme. It suggests using 60% of a dominant color, 30% secondary color, and 10% accent color in a room's palette.
What are some tips for picture wall arrangement?
To avoid a cluttered look, stagger frames by size and consider eye level. Mixing different frame types can add vibrancy. Use a 'dry run' layout on the floor or with paper cut-outs to plan the arrangement.
How does the concept of an optical midpoint play into design?
The optical midpoint is a visual sweet spot slightly above the center of an area. Placing objects at this point can make a design look more aesthetically pleasing.
