3 BHK
Wall Decor Design for a 3 BHK
In a 3 bhk of 1,100-1,500 sq ft, the wall decor typically works to Craft panel in the foyer. Walls are the last thing done and the first thing seen. We plan the hanging lines and the lighting at design stage, not after the paint has dried.

Planning note
Wall Decor at 3 bhk scale
A 3 bhk changes what a wall decor can carry more than most people expect: fewer run-length options, tighter door swings, and less room for a freestanding piece alongside the built joinery. Craft panel in the foyer reflects that discipline rather than a generic catalogue size.
Households at this configuration consistently under-plan storage volume for a wall decor, then add freestanding furniture later that the original layout never accounted for.
A group of works reads as one piece if the spacing between them is tighter than the distance from the group to the furniture.
Leave 200 to 250mm between the top of a sofa back and the bottom of the frame.
In a corridor, hang along one wall only and light from the opposite side to avoid glare as you walk.
Objects on a console want odd numbers and varied heights; three pieces at three heights beat five at the same height.
Light it deliberately with a narrow-beam framing spot. Unlit art in a well-lit room disappears at night.
What moves the estimate at this size
- The work itself, which is a market rather than a specification.
- Framing and glazing, where museum glass is a significant addition.
- Lighting: a framing projector costs several times a standard spot and does a different job.
- Installation, especially for heavy or high pieces.
- Commissioned work, which is priced by artist and scale.
Questions
Wall Decor questions
At what height should artwork be hung?
Centre of the piece at about 1,500mm from the floor — roughly eye level. Above a sofa or console, drop it so the gap to the furniture below is 200–250mm.
How do I plan a gallery wall?
Lay it out on the floor first, keep a consistent gap of 50–75mm, and align either a common centre line or a common top line. Mixed frames work if the gap and the mounts stay consistent.
Can heavy mirrors be hung on plasterboard?
Not on the board alone. You need a ply backing or fixings into the studs. Plan this before the wall is closed if you can — retro-fitting means opening the wall.
What lighting suits artwork?
A recessed adjustable spot at about 30 degrees from vertical, or a picture light on the frame. Aim it so the beam covers the piece without hitting the glass at the viewer's eye angle.
