Gallery Wall Spacing Guide
Spacing is the difference between a collection and a cluttered wall. Most layouts work best with consistent gaps and a clear visual center.

Use a centered layout, keep average spacing consistent, and print before hanging.

Plan the layout before you hang
A strong gallery wall starts with the outside boundary, the center height, and a repeatable gap. Use this page to choose the direction, then test the exact frame sizes in the planner before marking the wall.
Default frame gap
Start with 2 to 3 inches between frames. Use 1.5 inches for tiny frames and up to 4 inches for oversized pieces.
Center height
The average center of the arrangement should usually land between 57 and 60 inches from the floor.
Furniture relationship
Above a sofa or console, keep the gallery wall around two-thirds the width of the furniture so the arrangement feels anchored.
