How to Style a Gallery Wall with Different Art Sizes 🫧

Creating a gallery wall is one of the most beautiful ways to express your personality at home. The secret to an aesthetic wall? Mixing different art sizes while keeping harmony and flow. Here’s your styling guide:

Start with a Focal Point ✨

Choose one larger piece, like 50x70 cm, to act as the centerpiece. This artwork sets the tone and draws the eye immediately. Place it slightly off-center for a modern, effortless look.

Balance Squares & Rectangles 🌿

Mixing square (30x30, 50x50) and rectangular (30x40, 50x70) prints is what makes your wall dynamic. Squares add stability, while rectangles bring movement and flow.

Small & Large Harmony 🌸

  • 30x30 cm → Ideal for accent pieces or to fill smaller gaps.

  • 30x40 cm → Works as a bridge size between your small and large prints.

  • 50x50 cm → A strong square format that pairs beautifully with both vertical and horizontal prints.

  • 50x70 cm → Your statement piece, perfect to lead the wall.

Cohesion Through Color 🌈

Even if the prints differ in design, repeating a few colors across the artworks (for example pastel tones mixed with bold retro accents) will instantly tie everything together.

Asymmetry Creates Interest 🌿

Your gallery wall doesn’t need to be perfectly aligned. By placing one 50x70 cm print next to two 30x30 cm or one 30x40 cm piece, you create balance without symmetry — a modern and effortless look.

Layout Tip ✨

Before hanging, lay your prints on the floor in their frames. Experiment with combining a 50x70 next to a 50x50, and fill the gaps with 30x30 or 30x40 prints. This way you can test multiple arrangements and find the one that feels right.

Same Size, Different Vibe 🍋

A gallery wall doesn’t always need mixed sizes. Using several prints in the same format — for example three 30x30 cm or a pair of 50x50 cm pieces — creates a clean, cohesive look. The trick is to vary the designs: combine abstract shapes with photography, or mix pastel colors with bolder retro elements. This way, the uniform sizing feels intentional while the art itself brings energy and diversity.

Final Note 🦋

With only four formats — 30x30, 50x50, 30x40 and 50x70 — you have everything you need to design a gallery wall that feels cohesive, aesthetic, and timeless. Whether you prefer soft pastel tones or bold disco-inspired designs, your wall can become a unique reflection of your personality.
