USE THIS FORMULA TO CHOOSE YOUR ART

Stick with one loose palette (like the blue-andgold combination on this and the following page), pick pieces of various sizes, and mix up the styles (abstracts, seascapes, florals) and mediums (photographs, paintings, drawings). Artwork on this page sourced from 20x200.com, dwell.com, and minted. com. For buying info for all the pieces in this story, see Credits (last pages).

LEANING ON LEDGES

No measuring or hammering needed with this ultra-adaptable display that lets you add pieces or shift them around whenever you want. Position the frames so they’re overlapping slightly in an uneven (not uniform) way. The goal: a silhouette of undulating heights.

SIZE MATTERS

This picture ledge is 31⁄2 inches deep—enough to layer two framed pieces. Want to add a plant or a vase? Try a ledge that’s deeper than 4 inches.

LEAVE BREATHING ROOM

A few inches of space here and there keeps the collection from feeling cluttered.
