PHOTO GALLERY WALL - "OUR TOP DESIGN PICKS"

Lucy Jardine • July 22, 2025

One of my favorite ways to style any room is with a photo gallery wall. A variation of different frame sizes, finishes and your photo content can create a beautiful display! Its an ideal way to add color, texture and tell a story of your design style. An eclectic arrangement of content such as personal photography, sketches or paintings can be mixed and matched to create balance, symmetry and tell a story.


“Colors, textures, frame sizes and more, don’t be shy to mix & match your art!”


I am sharing some of my favorite interiors with beautiful examples of photo galleries in different applications and rooms.

Dark wall with a gallery of framed art, a floating cabinet holding sculptures and a globe, and a patterned chair.
Couch with decorative pillows, artwork on the wall, and a purple ottoman. Muted colors and modern design.

I love the use of art on canvas grouped together where all the colors and tones work together. Framed art on a wall can create a strong pop of color in the room, even changing out the art once in a while can create a different color theme to the space.

White minimalist living room with plants, artwork, and fur throw.
Four framed black and white photos on a navy blue wall, white trim, and part of a sofa.
Black-framed photos on a white shelf against a white wall, in varying sizes, arranged horizontally.
Shelves with framed photos, decorative items, and makeup brushes in a bright room.

For the minimalist at heart who may not want clutter, these ideas are just right! Less is more with contrast, lines, and black & white art. A photo ledge display can allow you to layer your frames, easily change arrangements and lets you layer with accessories depending on the ledge depth.

Bedroom with bed, nightstands, mirrors, artwork, and chandelier.

Not sure what to do with your headboard wall? These bedroom looks are sophisticated and contemporary with a great use of pictures frames hung in a grid layout, creating a pattern and texture

Black and white framed photographs on a dark wall in a bedroom, above a bedside table with a lamp and red bedding.
White bedroom with bed, curtains, art gallery wall, and lamp.
Staircase with black railing and framed black and white photos on the wall.
Black and white framed photos arranged on a beige wall above white paneling along a staircase.

Can’t decide on where to place your gallery wall? The best location is always a staircase depending on your layout. Selecting the right photos is essential, whether family black & white photos or travel photography. I suggest selecting frames that are softer than a black frame to reduce contrast and make the feature softer and not overbearing.

Shelves with framed art and decorative objects in a neutral color scheme.
Gallery wall with black and white framed art, a modern lamp, and a dark side table.

Love how cool these spaces look with eclectic art, sculptures, picture layering, and the use of different sized matting. These rooms don’t follow any rules, they are the exception to the rule!


Hope you can get inspired with these ideas for your new project!

LUXURY BEDROOM - "YOUR FEATURE WALL"

By Lucy Jardine • July 22, 2025
I recently completed this beautiful master bedroom for our client in the Toronto Beaches. An important factor to this room was creating a soft tranquil space with a traditional style. I wanted to make our client feel relaxed with soft tones in the bedding, walls and the overall decor. Some clients love bold contrast but a monochromatic color scheme is never boring, it makes the room feel bigger, brighter and softer.  When working on a tight budget, focus on what main features you want to highlight in your room? Obviously the headboard wall, bedding, make-up area and lighting are important factors to focus your attention on. A headboard feature can always be something different and unconventional. This time around we used two decorative mirror styles and placed them strategically to create a focal point on the headboard wall. What’s great about the mirrors is they are beautiful and a cost effective solution if you may not be able to get a beautiful tall tufted headboard. This look adds plenty of interest by creating a pattern with the mirror placement and style. “A monochromatic color scheme is never boring, it makes the room feel bigger, brighter and softer." Look for one of a kind “wow factors” that you can incorporate for your feature wall. Whether different sized mirrors, sculptural art, or a combination of picture art. Think outside the box for an arrangement that could draw your eye to the wall. If all else fails, over sized art can be the perfect backdrop to your headboard wall.
