- For paintings above the sofa there is a ⅔ rule. The size of the painting hangs best above the sofa if it is at least two thirds of the width of the sofa. Make sure that the wall decoration does not protrude beyond the sofa.
- In addition, it is nice if your wall decoration hangs 20 cm above the sofa and not below it, this also applies from the top to the ceiling.
- In museums, the 140/150 cm from the ground to the center of the painting is maintained. This way your painting can be seen clearly from all sides.
- Don't be afraid to go for a large size, this has a statement effect and you can easily fill your empty wall with this.
