How to Design a Stairway Gallery Wall

A gallery wall in the stairwell is one of the most popular and traditional things for anyone living in a house. I think everyone has it at home and renovates it from time to time and changes the pictures. A staircase is a perfect place to do something like this because there are one or two plain walls that can be decorated with your pictures to evoke positive emotions.

Which frames should I choose?

The frames you select may or may not match. You can vary the sizes, colors and shapes for a bolder and more versatile look, or opt for all the same frames to give your gallery wall a unified look. It all depends on the style of your home.

Which shape of gallery wall should you choose?

There are grid and freeform gallery walls, and you can choose the shape that best suits your space: freeform for more modern spaces and grid for more elegant and vintage spaces. You can hang artwork in rows to create more symmetry. This is a lovely idea for a modern, Scandinavian or minimalist space. If it seems a bit boring to you, choose the same frame in different sizes or keep the size but change the color. Get some vintage and shabby chic style frames or make new ones; Choose patina, gilding and whiwash finishes to achieve that old-fashioned look.

Opt for rustic accents like wooden signs for a rustic gallery wall, boho additions like macrame for a boho gallery wall and so on. Add mirrors, ropes, anchors, names and many other things depending on the look you want. Get inspired!
