Look We Love: Art Walls

Curated art walls can make a big visual impact in interior design.  This look has been trending online and in design magazines for years, and it is one we never tire of.  Achieving this "perfectly imperfect" look is no simple task - the most visually appealing examples have either a unifying theme, color story, frame style, spacing or scale.

A great way to determine the layout of your art wall without creating unnecessary nail holes is to cut butcher paper the same size as each piece you want to display.  You can arrange the butcher paper until you achieve the layout and spacing that works best on your wall.
