Framing & Proportion Guide
Choosing the right scale transforms artwork from a simple wall accessory into an architectural sanctuary. Use this visual guide to pair your art with your interior spaces.
Proportions by Living Zone
Above Sofa or Fireplace
Recommended Scale: 24x36" as a grand statement piece, or a Trio of 16x20" or 18x24" frames hung side-by-side.
Curator's Tip: Hang artwork so the bottom of the frame sits 8 to 10 inches above the top of your sofa back.
Console Table & Hallways
Recommended Scale: 16x20" or 18x24" placed centrally above a 48–60" console table.
Curator's Tip: Pair with subtle ambient lamp light or candlelight for a peaceful welcoming atmosphere.
Headboard & Bedroom Wall
Recommended Scale: Diptych (pair) of 16x20" frames or single 18x24" centered above the bed headboard.
Curator's Tip: Neutral watercolors and soft parchment palettes cultivate restorative evening calm.
Home Oratory & Study Desk
Recommended Scale: 12x16" frame leaning gently against a bookshelf or hung at eye level seated.
Curator's Tip: The 12x16" size provides intimate devotional focus for daily morning scripture and prayer.
