Picture Perfect – the best home galleries

Give a bare wall some love with these inspiring home galleries

~

Are your walls feeling a little bare, can’t quite figure out how to arrange the photos, prints and artwork you’ve collected over the years? Don’t fret, take inspiration from some of our favourite home galleries.

Pro tip: arrange your gallery on the floor before you start hammering nails into the wall. Sounds obvious, we know, but sometimes you just want to go at it with gusto… and the results can be devastating.

Let's dive right in.

At The Family Treehouse, they've really done it by the book and the results are fantastic.

Instead of hanging one large piece of art, put up a symmetrical gallery instead. Make sure to use Like a Magazine as your template because this is what gallery dreams are made of.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Sometimes much of the same is all it takes, as Safe Haven successfully proves.

Brick walls are always cool and they’re only made cooler with a fantastic collage of sketches and photographs. Christopher’s Glimmer is also in one of our favourite New York neighbourhoods: Greenwich Village.

And for the final, we’ve gone a little rogue. East Wind, West Wind is proof that hanging plates on the walls is not something for grannies. In fact, only the cool kids are doing it.

Now, just remember that all of these could be yours (for a weekend, at least).
