above, my living room
A few years ago, my husband and I purchased a small sectional sofa for our living room. Positioned in the corner opposite our main entry, I knew we needed a strong statement on the walls. After many weeks of research I decided on a large grid of square frames. Mathematically, they echo the “L” shape of the sofa and draw the eye up, creating the illusion of increased ceiling height. Initially I had intended to frame some of my black and white photographs but I ended up falling in love with the brown MDF backing and white mat! The high contrast and exact repetition turned out to be the dramatic statement I was looking for!
I’m excited to share with you some of my favorite framed groupings. Whether the same size or different shapes and sizes, many or few, colorful or monochromatic, framed groupings have the power to transform a space!

I started with a laser level and ended up doing the rest by eye because the laser level was not accurate enough for Danielle
I love you very much for helping hang the frames! It was a trying day but well worth it in the end!!!!!!
Great job guys! Creating your grouping with flawless accuracy is a task few would attempt and even less would accomplish.
