There are, however, a couple of simple rules to follow which will make sure it looks perfect.<\/strong><\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-fcc9f62 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"fcc9f62\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p><strong>Rule No 1.<\/strong> Get the size &amp; proportion right.<\/p><p>To create the perfect balance, make sure the artwork is at least two thirds the length of the sofa. Anything smaller will look lost and unbalanced against the scale of the furniture. If your selected piece is smaller, then use two or more to create a wider group. If you go too big and exceed the length of the sofa, you will find it overwhelms the furniture rather than enhancing it.<\/p><p><strong>Rule No 2.<\/strong> Position for harmony.<\/p><p>Once the size is right, you need to follow the second rule around positioning. As a general guide a good position is 8\u201d to 10\u201d above the back of the sofa. An image too high will look like it\u2019s detached from the sofa and a piece too low will get lost in the sofa. Remember you are creating a\u00a0scene with the art and the sofa together in harmony, not just hanging a piece on the wall. If you incorporate your surroundings to work with your art, it will tie the whole room together and create a stunning focal feature.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element
