Melanie Murphy Interiors’ Top Five Design Mistakes #2

Artwork Hung too High

Placement in a key component when building a room.  To create cohesion, each item must connect to another to pull the room together.  In that vein, place art over an anchor piece, such as a sofa, side table, or mantel, so that the bottom is 6-10″ above the anchor.  If hanging art on a wall with no anchor, place it so the center of the art is 54-60″ from the floor.
