Tips To Hang Modern Wall Art Set Of 3

You have spent a lot of time and effort choosing a modern wall art set of 3, and it has finally been delivered to your doorstep. While you will be visibly excited to receive the collection, the next step is important. How to put up the set on the wall, not just to add value to the room but also to make it the center of attraction of the space.

Most modern wall art sets of 3 come with a ready-to-hang pre-installed sawtooth hanger. That takes out the effort of making holes in the artwork to hang it which might damage your wall set.

So, let’s get down to the nitty-gritty of hanging your modern wall art set of 3.

Creating A Plan – How To Hang Modern Wall Art Set

The technicalities of hanging a wall art set will come later; first, let us explore the aesthetic aspects of hanging a wall art set.

The starter is to visualize how your art set will look on the wall and the perfect place to put it up. Do not clutter up your wall. The best place to hang a modern wall art set of 3 is to ensure that the full set does not take up more than 60-70% of the empty wall space. A sense of space apart from the wall art will focus attention on your prized possession.

Do not hang your artwork too high. It is the most common mistake made when fixing your artwork. Hang your artwork at eye-level. While it might initially seem too low, especially for large prints, this is what galleries do. Your visitors should not have to crane their necks to have a good view of your modern wall art set of 3.

Your artwork should come into view as soon as someone steps into a room and must be in harmony with the décor of the rest of the room. For example, if you are hanging your wall art above a sofa, there should not be a gap of more than 6 to 8 inches from the top of the sofa to the bottom of the print. Choose an area of the room to hang wall art that is visually free instead of a space that is already crowded with décor.

Finally, always put your modern wall art set of 3 flush with the wall. The ambiance of your interior will instantly take a dive if you leave a gap between the wall art and the wall.    

Aligning the Panels

Start with hanging the middle panel (which is usually the largest) and make it the focal point of the other 2. Leave enough space between the panels; the best airy look is when you leave a space of about 2 inches between them. Too big or too small a gap will spoil the effect of a split canvas.
