Format
Vertical wall art
The portrait format lengthens the wall and makes the most of narrow spaces: next to a door, in a hallway or as a pair above a console table.

Where to hang a vertical piece
Narrow walls between a door and a window, hallways, the entrance, the space beside a bookcase: where a landscape format won't fit, a vertical one fills the wall without weighing it down. It also adds height to rooms with low ceilings, because it draws the eye upwards.
In pairs or in series
Two vertical pieces side by side, above a console table, bed or sofa, work like a single large horizontal picture. Leave 5–8 cm between them. Along a hallway, a series of vertical pieces at the same height creates rhythm.
Suitable subjects
The vertical format brings out portraits, architecture, trees, flowers and city views: all subjects that develop upwards.
