Choosing wall art should be one of the loveliest parts of decorating a room. You find a print, painting or photograph that catches your eye, imagine it on the wall, and picture the whole room feeling more finished.
Then comes the awkward part.
What size should you choose?
A print that looks generous in your hands can suddenly look shy once it is above a sofa.
A frame that seems perfectly sensible online can feel lost on a wide wall.
A gallery wall can either feel collected and personal, or a little bit like the wall has started whispering in seven directions at once.
The good news is that choosing the right art size isn't about perfect rules or interior design wizardry.
It's mostly about proportion, placement and visual confidence.
