Try it against your own furniture

Pick a shape, a layout and a size. The drawing is true to scale, so the canvas, the furniture and the person are all in the same proportion you would see on the wall. Both a queen and a king are here because they are the two most common beds in US homes, and the 16 inch difference in width changes what fits above them. Over a bed the artwork is lifted to clear a headboard, so the height readout changes with it.

    Every size we make

    Grouped by the shape of the artwork, because the shape decides which layouts and sizes exist. Inside each table every diagram is drawn to the SAME scale, so the pictures themselves show you how much bigger one size is than another.

    Horizontal Wider than tall

    The largest range. Landscapes, cityscapes, most artwork.

    1 Piece One canvas. The only layout offered in all three finishes.

    3 Horizontal Three equal panels side by side.

    4 Pop Four panels. The two inner panels are full height, the outer two are shorter and hang at different drops, so the set steps down across the wall.

    5 Star Five panels that STEP DOWN in height from the centre outward, tallest in the middle, shortest at each end. A symmetrical peak.

    5 Pop Five panels where the centre is tallest and the OTHER FOUR ARE ALL THE SAME HEIGHT, hung at staggered drops. That is the difference from 5 Star, whose outer panels get shorter.

    Two things worth knowing before you choose

    Framed Canvas and Framed Print are offered on 1 Piece only. Every multi panel set is a Canvas Print. If you want a frame, you are choosing a single canvas.

    The size on the label is the artwork. The wall footprint can differ. A multi panel set hangs with a half inch gap between panels, so a 4 Horizontal listed at 43 x 30 in occupies 41.5 x 30 in of wall. The Hangs as column gives the real footprint.

    Most vertical artwork offers five single sizes. A smaller group offers three, with an 18 x 36 in place of the 16 x 32 and 20 x 40. The size selector on the artwork you are looking at is always the real list.

    Which size for which wall

    One rule covers almost every wall: fill about two thirds to three quarters of the space, or of the furniture underneath. Going too small is the common mistake, and it leaves the piece looking like it is floating.

    The three finishes

    What actually arrives, and which layouts each one is offered on.

    Canvas Print

    Gallery wrap on a solid wooden inner frame. The image continues around the sides, so no frame is needed. No glass, so no glare.

    Available on Every layout, single and multi panel.

    Framed Canvas

    The same gallery wrap, set inside a slim floater frame with a shadow gap between the canvas and the frame.

    Available on One Piece only.

    Framed Print

    Paper behind a white mat, inside a frame. A more formal look, and the only finish with a mat.

    Available on One Piece only. Sizes 24 x 16, 30 x 20 and 36 x 24.

    How it arrives, and how it hangs

    1. Treat each panel as its own piece. A multi panel set is not hinged or joined. You hang each panel on its own, which is what lets you set the spacing to your wall.
    2. Use the hanger already fitted. Every panel ships with a sawtooth hanger installed, plus hanging instructions and white pins in the box. There is no extra hardware to buy.
    3. Leave a half inch between panels. That is the gap every multi panel size on this page is built on. The one exception is 4 Square, which hangs on a one inch gap.
    4. Hang the centre 58 inches from the floor. That is the gallery standard. Above a sofa, leave roughly 6 to 8 inches between the top of the sofa back and the bottom of the artwork. Above a bed, clear the headboard by about 8 inches.
    5. Measure the wall before you choose. Take the width of the clear wall, or of the furniture below it, and aim to fill about two thirds of it. Going too small is the common mistake.

    Size questions, answered

    What size wall art should go above a sofa?

    Aim to fill about two thirds of the sofa width. A standard three seat sofa is 84 inches wide, so the artwork wants to be roughly 57 inches across. The closest sizes we make are 56 x 18 in (3 Piece), 60 x 20 in (1 Piece), 62 x 40 in (4 Pop).

    How high should wall art be hung?

    Hang it so the centre of the artwork sits about 58 inches from the floor. That is the gallery standard and it suits most rooms. Above a sofa, leave roughly 6 to 8 inches between the top of the sofa back and the bottom of the piece. Above a bed, clear the headboard by about 8 inches, which usually means hanging a little higher than 58 inches.

    What is the largest wall art size you make?

    The largest piece is 82 x 42 inches, a 5 Star set in the horizontal range. The largest single canvas depends on the shape of the artwork: horizontal 48 x 32 in, square 48 x 32 in, panoramic 60 x 20 in, vertical 30 x 60 in.

    Do multi panel canvases arrive joined together?

    No. The panels are separate pieces and you hang them one at a time. They are not hinged. Every size on this page is built on a 0.5 inch gap between panels, except 4 Square, which uses a 1.0 inch gap.

    Which sizes can I get framed?

    Framing is offered on the 1 Piece layout only. Every multi panel set is a canvas print. Framed Canvas comes in 24 x 16, 36 x 24, 48 x 32 inches, and Framed Print comes in 24 x 16, 30 x 20, 36 x 24 inches. Panoramic and vertical artwork is canvas only.

    How much wall space does a multi panel set actually need?

    More than the size on the label, because the gaps between panels sit on the wall too. The Hangs as column in every table gives the real installed footprint. As a rule, allow a wall about half as wide again as the artwork so it does not look crowded.
