The dark art of hanging pictures


You have beautiful prints of your beautiful photos, but how best to display them?

On the day when the wonderful Fracture announced that it has shipped 100,000 fractures, or images printed on glass, we thought it was the perfect time to share an infographic created on behalf of Made.com, which addresses the hows and whys of hanging pictures.

It doesn't matter how beautiful or compelling your pictures are, if they're hung in such a way that people can't appreciate them, you're not doing them any favours. However, we're not all fortunate enough to have the skills of museum and gallery curators to help us place our pictures perfectly. And even then, I've been to galleries where the hanging has left a great deal to be desired, amounting to a disappointing viewing experience

But with a little bit of patience and forethought, together with a tape measure, pencil, and paper, not to mention the guidance that follows, you can have your living room looking as good as any professionally curated exhibit!
