Framed art by nature is highly decorative. However, do bare in mind that there are certain norms which should be followed:
-it is not appropriate to hang small paintings alone on large expanses of wall spaces
-to put into harmony the overwhelming sensation that a large painting may provoke, a group of paintings should be hung on another wall. You can aslo put some ornamental objects to the side of the large painting, such as a plant , a lamp or sculpture that acts as a counterpoint
-paintings should be hung with just a single nail
-use a dark coloured frame on a light coloured wall to improve the appearance of the painting
-A collection of objects hung in a vertical line will elevate the visual sensation of the ceiling. Hence, base on this reasoning, if a collection is hung horizontally, the room will appear wider
-The coherence of a collection can be created on the basis of sizes, colours, forms or even the themes of each item
-An asymmetrical arrangement of pictures, if well thought out, can give personality and character tot he environment
