THE SAME FRAMES, TWO ARRANGEMENTS

Gallery wall layout examples

These original worked examples use a fictional 2400 × 1800 mm wall and five frames with different outside dimensions. Both layouts use a 60 mm preset gap. They demonstrate the actual planner rules, not a promise that one arrangement suits every room.

Collected: two centered rows

The first three frames form the top row; the remaining two form the bottom row. Frames are vertically centered within each row. The gap separates the rows’ maximum heights, so differently sized frames can have larger visible edge-to-edge gaps at some positions.

All dimensions in millimetres; frame positions are measured from the wall’s upper-left corner.
Frame	Outer W × H	From left	From top
1. Sunday light	400 × 500	490	420
2. Quiet landscape	600 × 450	950	445
3. Small gestures	300 × 400	1610	470
4. Soft horizon	400 × 300	820	1030
5. Olive study	300 × 400	1280	980

The top row is 1420 mm wide and 500 mm high. The bottom row is 760 mm wide and 400 mm high. Together with the 60 mm row gap, the group is 960 mm high and starts 420 mm below the wall’s top.

One row: a shared horizontal center

The same frames keep their input order and outside sizes. They are centered vertically within a single row, so their upper edges are not all aligned. The whole group is 2240 mm wide, leaving 80 mm on each side of this wall.

All dimensions in millimetres; frame positions are measured from the wall’s upper-left corner.
Frame	Outer W × H	From left	From top
1. Sunday light	400 × 500	80	650
2. Quiet landscape	600 × 450	540	675
3. Small gestures	300 × 400	1200	700
4. Soft horizon	400 × 300	1560	750
5. Olive study	300 × 400	2020	700

Change the plan to fit your own collection

Open the planner, enter the actual outer dimensions and usable wall size, choose Collected or One row, and press Apply layout. Changing the gap alone does not rearrange frames. Neither preset shrinks frames to make them fit.

For 1–8 frames, Collected puts the first half, rounded up, into the top row and the rest below. One row keeps all frames in a single line. Use numeric positions, arrow keys or dragging to refine a preset. There is no automatic optimal-layout claim.

Both diagrams are reduced illustrations. They are not full-size paper templates. Read the numeric coordinates and make separate temporary outlines to check the arrangement in the room.
