I believe you will drive yourself crazy trying to find other items to coordinate with this one print.

Maybe it would be better to purchase a grouping of pieces.

A grouping of 2 or a grouping of 4 to miss the electrical switch plate.

Your space has room for a console table, maybe assemble a table with a lamp and decor mounted on the wall.

Or you could assemble a wall of woven baskets and trays

You don't need a gallery wall, you don't need useless objects tacked on , either. .

Find a new home for a print you liked and purchased, ( end of that hallway, where you have a mirror reflecting......what?) and get ONE large framed canvas for that wall.

If you inform the width of the wall, and the passage inches from end of island to that wall? Someone can inform a nice console to add below the NEW single piece of art.

I‘d find a home for it on a small wall and save yourself the effort and time creating a gallery wall that might not suit/end up disliking.

A large horizontal piece would look better anyway.

I agree with Jan on the console table. But you can do a "salon style" gallery wall in which the grouping of art pieces have different looks and frame styles. It's an eclectic look, so it may not be your thing. But they can look really great and interesting.

Note the dark accent wall in the last photo. I think that can really help make the art pop.

I will add only this:

It is far easier on a non/pro non designer skill set, to purchase ONE GENEROUSLY SIZED piece of art you love, appropriately scaled to a wall, than it is to imitate or reproduce a well though out and curated gallery wall with attractive hanging of all pieces. Not to mention how much random junk this will cause you to purchase from the internet, and which goes where and heloooooo? Can easily end looking cluttered.

Stay in your lane. Easy peasy is just as good looking.

Get back with answers to previous two questions regarding wall width and passage between island end and that wall.

Easy peasy, lovely

Easier to find, easier to hang.....

Harder, more expensive and not NECESSARY, below......even when mat and frames relate.....call it too much clutter jmho of course in this example.

If you approach it from the point of view of hanging some art that you love, and creating a wall that has some significance for you - then the gallery will take on a life of its own, and it will be easier for you to put it together. And the pieces do not have to ”match”.

As far as the layout - I could see something free form/asymmetrical .

Art doesn't have to "match" and all that matters is that you love each piece and how they hang together.

"Stay in your lane" ... what the heck! Who says that?

Personally, I prefer to color outside the lines and do my own unique thing!

You can also mix in collected items, not just flat art.

To add, @chispa there are plenty of framing shops that have design services for gallery wall art placement, if you're not confident enough to do it DIY.

But honestly, the best way to plan a gallery wall is to get brown craft paper cut to the sizes of each of the frames and use painter's tape to set them on the wall until you come up with the right composition. Then you just hang the corresponding art and remove the paper underneath. It's really not that diffiicult and you don't need a pro to do it.

You don't have anything else you want featured? Why the desire for a gallery then? Curated art makes a home more interesting anyway. For now find a better place for it. Ya never know at some point you might have a set of somethings you want to feature.

I just want to know what bonehead placed a light switch in the middle of the wall, and an oulet directly beneath it?

Wait, do you have any cutting boards? (Jan!)

do a console and one large piece of art there.

or a bench

or something like this

here's your art gallery

I originally wanted to do a consult table right there, but it’s only 3.3 wide. I afraid it will be too crowded.

BeverlyFLADeziner- my OCD is going strong right now! I'm spending way too much time on this wall!

Her is what is on the side of that wall.

I know, I know…i used Siri and she turned console into consult.

I was thinking to add this picture

I replied on your other thread — I think a trio of art would look nice.

Not suggesting these, just using them to show an example of placement.

Jilly- yes! I like that idea. Not too much but just enough to take up the wall.

Call the electrician, I'm with Beth on this. That is truly an annoying set of switches. Put it far left. I think it was the "lazy" factor at the build . He said "easy peasy right up here!", stayed in the same bay with the one near the floor : ( : (.

Bet he had butt crack showing? lol

Y’all. On volume builds like apartments, electricians don’t get to choose where to place electrical outlets and switches.

It’s not the electrician’s fault. They go by THE PLANS. (Plus, we don’t know what else is in that wall — plumbing, etc.)

Source: married to a damn good electrician.

PS: He never shows his butt crack in public. That view is saved for me.

PPS: Jan, he’s laughing at your butt crack comment. :D

you can do a very narrow console there. 12", 8" etc, wouldn't block your path

heck, this one is mounted to the wall. you could do that too, w/or w/o legs. (this is uper easy to DIY too)

to go w/your somewhat mcm style on the other side of the room, myabe some type of wall hanging/boho type of art. do some taller things on the console.

You could even DIY a slat wood wall accent on that wall. either partial

or, some type of floating console w/larger art in colors that go w/your furniture

maybe a bench? a slat bench?

Etsy consoles and benches too

Oh the slat wood wall accent is super nice idea Beth 💗 the outlet covers painted in a camouflaged color, then an art piece if needed, but would be a great option there. Then I’de actually just leave it without a furniture piece. Much more open for walk through there.

Or I believe you can even purchase wood like outlet covers.

You could put a narrow console table there or something else like a bookcase a lamp on it

Mm

I think a gallery wall would look good there. I have a gallery wall made up of a variety of art I've collected over the years. Just layout any pictures/items you'd like to hang on the floor until you like the layout and then transfer them to the wall.
