After a long hiatus I am back to Thursday Tips at the request of a reader who liked these short and to the point tips for "small improvements that have big impact". For this week my favourite topic - art.
The biggest mistake made when hanging art is not matching the size/shape of the art work to the space you are hanging it. Work should look "comfortable" in its space not cramped or looking like it is awash in a sea of wall.

| Layout follows vertical space |
 |
| Long console needs substantial work to fill space |
 |
| Perfect size and composition for top of stairs |
 |
| Size and shape works with width of headboard |
 |
| Art shape and size follows wall shape |
And there you have it. Large works for large spaces or smaller works massed together for impact. No little pieces lonely on a big wall. No large pieces squat into a small space. Oh, did I mention I have a lot of opinions on gallery walls? I'll save that for another tip.
