The Ultimate Guide to Choosing the Right Size for Your Wall Art

Choosing the right wall art size can make the difference between a design that feels complete and one that feels “off.”
Too small, and it gets lost. Too large, and it overwhelms the room.

Here’s how to find the perfect balance for your space — every time.

🖼️ 1. Measure Your Wall Space

Start by measuring the width and height of your wall.
A general rule: your artwork should cover 60–75% of the wall space above furniture.

For example:

Above a sofa, the print should be around two-thirds the width of the couch.

Above a bed, aim for 50–75% of the headboard’s width.

Pro Tip: Leave about 15–25 cm (6–10 inches) between the frame and the top of your furniture.

📐 2. Understand Standard Sizes

At StyonArt, our most popular wall art dimensions are:

Small: 40x30 cm – perfect for small rooms or gallery walls

Medium: 60x40 cm / 70x50 cm – great for bedrooms or offices

Large: 100x70 cm / 120x80 cm – for living rooms or statement walls

Choosing from these standards ensures easy balancing and consistent framing.

🧩 3. Create a Gallery Wall

Instead of one large piece, try combining multiple artworks.
Arrange 3–5 smaller prints in a grid or organic layout for a modern, personalized touch.

Use equal spacing (around 5 cm between pieces) to keep the composition tidy and cohesive.

🪶 4. Match Scale to Furniture

Large art pairs best with large furniture — it keeps visual harmony.
For smaller rooms, stick to medium or modular prints that don’t overpower the space.

If you’re unsure, tape paper sheets to your wall in the intended sizes to visualize the final layout before buying.

💡 5. Don’t Be Afraid of Going Big

Most people choose wall art that’s too small.
A bold, oversized piece can instantly elevate your room — especially when placed on a neutral background.

Remember: big art doesn’t just decorate a wall — it defines a space.
