Just start in the middle, then you can add to it evenly over the years to come. Definitely not behind the telly. Re: Where should I hang these pictures?? 4Feb 07, 2011 12:43 pm How about the angled wall at the end of the hallway? That would also work ok Just keep laying them out on the floor like you've done to get a layout that works.

That would also work ok Just keep laying them out on the floor like you've done to get a layout that works. The angled wall in the hallway is the wall I meant when mentioning the hallway! Glad you agree with me about the wall above the tv, DH wanted it there but I just wasn't convinced it would work. I might just paint that wall anyway to liven it up a bit. Loooove your colour on your photo wall! Hmmm, now I don't know whether to do hallway or dining room wall. I would prefer it in the main room but the fact that we have the airconditioner stuck up there on the left hand side really throws me!! I don't know what to do with that space! Ugly things they are!

Not sure Michelle..... it really depends on which wall I put them on. I am happy with just this amount but if I put them on the large wall in the dining, I will try and find others to add to these ones (prob won't be able to find the exact ones though) Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=32574 Re: Where should I hang these pictures?? 9Feb 07, 2011 2:20 pm [quote="just Erin oops, that straight wall opposite the niches would work very well too I think painting it would be the best option, otherwise a single large image. Although if you wall mount the tv one day, the image may look out of place. I was thinking about that... Would you centre the pics to the wall... or centre them where the air con unit ends and the very far right wall? Centred to the entire wall would balance that space, and perhaps take people's eyes away from the air con unit [/quote] Wall accross from the niches might create a traffic jam. Not a very big space. I don't think I will ever wall mount the tv. I was thinking of placing them to the right and centring them there but what you have said about centring to the whole wall and how it would take peoples eyes off the air con makes sense!

Build thread: viewtopic.php?f=31&t=32574 Re: Where should I hang these pictures?? 11Feb 07, 2011 2:41 pm Well, I seem to be the only one to prefer above the TV. I think it makes a nice point of interest in what could be a very dull space with just the TV there. Alternatively….I’d go for the entrance wall it needs something as well. Your dining room wall would look better with a big canvas on it. Internal and External Building and Colour Consultant Online - Worldwide http://www.denovoconcepts.com Re: Where should I hang these pictures?? 12Feb 08, 2011 10:56 am My vote is also for the hall - I think it would attract attention to the angled wall making it even more of a feature. Your hall is also somewhere where people walk close enough to the wall to be able to see photos. Yes, you can walk close to the wall in the dining but most of the time people will be a distance away so to me it makes more sense to have a larger picture that can be appreciated both close and from a distance. Re: Where should I hang these pictures?? 13Feb 14, 2011 1:36 pm Hi guys, Decision made! Am hanging them on the angled wall in the entrance/hallway. Just grtting some more pics printed before I hang them. In the meantime, I have hung some canvases on the dining wall. These have been sitting in different rooms because I couldn't decide where to put them. They were going to go in the entrance but the wall wasn't quite big enough So I have decided to put them here.... I was hesitant when I first got them because the red isn't as deep as the rug on the floor and also the air con was throwing me, but as Erin said, I think by centring them in the middle of the wall it takes the focus away from the air con. What do you think? I LOOOOOOOVE them!!

I put two of the 11kg ones in for a 12kg mirror on the wall, and its been great for 4 years now. 4 2139 Regardless of wall hung toilet or floor pan toilet your feet will be right on drain, seems to me the waste should not be in that location given the design.
