A gallery wall is a great way to give your living room a personal look and to spruce up a large empty wall. Integrating your favorite artwork into your wall decor can have an impressive effect on a space and can transform the most basic models of furniture in a budget-friendly way.

Below, you can find my favorite living room gallery wall ideas with different compositions, frame sizes, art pieces, and styles. All the examples add a personal touch to a modern interior already because of the selection of the art pieces, yet if you want to go even more personal, you can always add family photographs.

A framed art gallery wall connecting two living room levels

The dining room and living room in this loft space are on different levels, however, the gallery wall connects both living spaces together in a creative way.

Mixing and matching your favorite prints or favorite photos in similar color palettes will add texture to your space, yet in a modest and subtle way. The gallery wall in this living room includes black, white, and beige tones, which you can also find back in the color palette of the furniture pieces and accessories.

An eclectic gallery wall fills the entire wall space

This floor-to-ceiling gallery wall includes abstract art and vibrant colors with a mix of landscape and portrait images in black, white, and wooden frames. The one-of-a-kind prints in modern frames add endless visual interest and transform the room design into a multifaceted design that is truly one-of-a-kind.

Gallery walls with a mixture of colors and frame sizes tend to give you a bolder look and allow you to add a bit of color to the living room furniture as well.

The simple drawings, clean lines, and art prints in a neutral color palette finished off with oak picture frames add a cohesive look to this soft and subtle living room design.

The wall opposite the sofa is a perfect location for a gallery wall, as it doesn’t have any other functionality in front of it, allowing you to spread the pieces out and fill the entire surface with wall art.

Vintage wall art forms the perfect gallery wall

This living room with cool grey walls includes an impressive accent wall created of encyclopedia-style art pieces in different-sized picture frames. These vintage wall art pieces add interest to the space and bring the living room wall visually closer to the rest of the space.

The selection of wall art in neutral colors stands out against the cool-grey wall color and it’s the one element that stands out the most in this beautiful space.

A mix of vintage and modern on a gallery wall above the sofa

The combination of artwork in mismatched frames hanging in a beautiful pattern above the sofa is the perfect solution for this otherwise modest living room with great historic features.

Gallery walls with vintage pieces add character, while the smaller frames and details tend to add depth to the living room wall. This adds character to the simple living room furniture, which shows the possibilities of personalizing a room with a mixture of great artwork.

Three gallery walls in the same living room for an impressive effect

Artwork is a common theme in this beautiful living room with a unique spin. Three gallery walls adorn the walls of this historic interior. The final look is impressive and results in a plethora of amazing art pieces combined into one space.

When sitting on the sofa, you can adorn the artwork on all the walls, with smaller art pieces combined with wall plates above the full-width wall shelf, large pieces on the opposite wall, and the TV integrated with art pieces on the third wall.

A photo gallery wall on a dark background

Just a few pieces on this blank wall with a small doorway have such a great effect on this space. The gallery wall has been fitted in a smaller space, yet because of the dark wall color it has such an impressive look.

If you want to get a bit more personal, this look can also be achieved with black-and-white family photos in black frames.

Art hung onto an old doorway

An old doorway is an ideal spot to create a gallery wall as it’s one of those awkward spots that you wouldn’t otherwise make useful. In this beautiful light grey apartment, the gallery wall in natural tones and different frame sizes is framed by the old doorframe, which makes it even more of a focal point in the otherwise rather empty space.

A colorful picture wall in an eclectic living room

I think this is the best gallery wall inspiration if you are looking to add color to your place. The colorful artwork in this gallery wall is aligned on the top, giving it a clean look and feel above the full-width wall shelf that can be filled with books and accessories.

The colors in the gallery wall complement wonderfully with the color palette in the living room furniture for an eclectic mix with an interesting mix of colors.

A modern gallery wall in neutral tones

This gallery wall above the small dining table includes small and medium-sized framed pieces. The artwork in natural colors is complemented with matching frames in black to add clean lines of contrast to this white space.

When you want to create a clean-looking gallery wall, it’s a great idea to match materials to your art piece so you will end up with a balanced color scheme.

A black and white gallery wall mixed with vintage pieces

The black and white gallery wall on display above the dining table in this space is a perfect match for the vintage dining table, chairs, and the grey-painted vintage sideboard. The wall art is hanging on both of the walls surrounding the dining room, and two frames standing on the sideboard complete the look in a playful way.
