It's a practical and creative way to plan and execute a gallery wall that truly reflects your style and enhances your living space.

How to Use Gallery Wall Planner: Step-by-Step

Artfully Walls' Wall Designer begins your creative journey with an extensive library of art options. You can explore various mediums, styles, artists, and sizes. The tool has it all, whether you're inclined towards abstract paintings, classic portraits, or contemporary photographs. It's about finding those pieces that speak to you fitting perfectly into the envisioned aesthetic of your space.

The tool allows you to select different backgrounds, simulating how your chosen art will look in various room settings. You even have the option to upload an image of your own room, offering a realistic preview of the final look.

Precise spacing and alignment are key to a harmonious gallery wall. The Wall Designer's rulers and grid system enable you to understand your art selection's exact dimensions and placement. This feature is invaluable for achieving a balanced and aesthetically pleasing arrangement.

Artfully Walls takes customization a step further by allowing you to preview your gallery wall from different room perspectives – including living room, chaise, and console views. This helps you visualize how the art will interact with various room elements, ensuring a perfect fit for your chosen space.

Once you’ve made your selections, the Wall Designer provides comprehensive information about each piece. This includes the artist's name, artwork size, print type, price, and other details, helping you make informed choices about the art you bring into your home.

The Wall Designer tool makes it easy to play with different frame styles. Mix sleek modern with classic wooden frames, or try bold colors against monochrome. It's a fun way to see what works (and what doesn’t!) before you make your final choices. This step is all about personalizing each piece to your taste, ensuring your gallery wall is uniquely yours.

Flexibility is key in design. The Wall Designer allows you to tweak and refine your choices. You can add or remove elements, change arrangements, and experiment with different combinations until you find the perfect match for your wall.

The final step is the most satisfying – adding your curated gallery wall to the cart for purchase. This seamless process ensures that the beautiful design you've created is not just a concept but becomes a reality in your home in just one click.
