A gallery wall is one of the most impactful ways to bring personality into your home. Whether you're working with a blank hallway, a cozy living room corner, or a child's bedroom, a well-curated gallery wall can elevate your space instantly. But where do you start? And how do you choose the right canvas prints?

In this guide, we’ll walk you through seven creative ways to style a gallery wall using canvas artwork — from symmetrical layouts to playful kids’ room designs.

1. Start with a Statement Piece

Anchor your gallery wall with a bold, large canvas — like a piece from our 3 piece canvas art collection. This creates a visual foundation, helping other artworks fall into place naturally. Choose a style or theme that reflects your personality or the mood of the room.

2. Mix Framed and Frameless Styles

A mix of framed and unframed prints adds depth and contrast. Try combining framed canvas prints with minimalist edge-wrapped canvases for a dynamic look. This style works beautifully in modern living rooms or hallways.

3. Use Symmetry for a Clean, Modern Look

Prefer structure over eclecticism? Go symmetrical. Hang three or six similarly sized canvases in a grid or horizontal row. Our wall art for living room category offers collections that match beautifully in color and composition.

4. Play with Shapes and Sizes

A gallery wall doesn’t have to be perfectly balanced. Try mixing vertical, square, and panoramic prints for a layered effect. Just make sure to keep equal spacing between each piece to maintain visual flow.

5. Add a Touch of Abstract

Abstract art is a powerful way to introduce color and movement. Intermix a few bold abstract canvases with more minimal pieces to give your gallery wall energy and expression.

6. Make It Personal in Kids’ Rooms

Gallery walls aren’t just for grown-up spaces. Create a fun, imaginative gallery for your child using kids wall art that features animals, letters, or whimsical themes. Personalize it by mixing in your child’s drawings or name initials.

7. Align Your Wall With the Room’s Purpose

A gallery wall should enhance the room it lives in. For example:

• In a nursery, use nursery wall art in soothing tones.

• In a home office, lean toward minimalist or motivational prints.

• In the kitchen or dining area, choose food-themed or cozy illustrations.
