Hanging round wall art on any wall: practical instructions and dimensions

Hanging a wall art circle sounds simple, but of course you want your beautiful wall art circle to hang straight, at the right height and without any fuss. Here is a step-by-step guide to the best way to hang a wall art circle, tailored to our round wall art in forex, plexiglass and aluminium. Whether you choose one circle as an eye-catcher or combine several round wall art, the basis is the same: determine the location, choose the right mounting material and work neatly. Within our wall circle collection, you will find different designs for every interior, from japandi to van Gogh and old masters. So it won't just be a chore, but really a stylish form of decoration that lets your wall speak for itself.

Round wall art and materials: forex, plexiglass and aluminium

Our round wall art is available in three materials, which helps determine how you are most comfortable hanging and maintaining them. Forex is lightweight but sturdy, so a round wall art in forex is often easy to install and ideal if you don't want to drill much. Plexi (glass) and aluminium are less fragile and can also be used outdoors, making secure mounting especially important in windy or rough conditions. Aluminium is also known as dibond; it is stable and gives your round wall decoration a sleek look. Whatever choice you make, cleaning is easy: take a cloth or rag and gently wipe the surface.

A big advantage is that you can choose a suitable material for each room. For Kids' Rooms, forex is popular because it is light. For a canopy, veranda or outside wall, aluminium or plexi (glass) is often finer because it is less vulnerable. The round shape makes the design look softer than a rectangular print, while still remaining modern. So one wall circle will quickly fit your interior, whether you like cute forest animals or quiet japandi designs.

Hanging with or without drilling: double-sided tape (tesa) and fixing material

Whether you need to drill depends on the surface, the size and what you are comfortable with. For a small 30 cm round wall art, hanging without drilling is often feasible, especially on a smooth wall where tape adheres well. Then use double-sided tape or a Tesa power strip and work precisely: first clean this area well, for example with an alcohol wipe, and allow the wall to dry. Then press firmly so that the tape presses down well everywhere and the fixing becomes reliable. This reduces the risk of damage to the wall, although removal is always something to be done carefully.

If you want maximum security, or have a stiffer surface such as structure, then drilling is usually the safest choice. With a screw and plug, you have a solid hanging solution that gives confidence even with larger diameters. For larger round wall art, also consider how the wall reacts: some walls are soft and can be damaged faster if you drill too close to an edge. Therefore, work with suitable fixing materials and take your time when aligning. This will avoid having to rehang later or the circle not staying neatly hung.

Dimensions, different formats and the right place on your wall

The dimensions largely determine the effect of your circular wall decoration. Our round wall art is available in diameters of 30, 60, 90, 120 and 140 cm, so you can really choose what suits your wall and the size of the room. For smaller walls, 30 cm is perfect and this is our most frequently chosen size; it brightens up a corner without being overpowering. For an average wall, 60 cm is often just right, and for a large wall, 90 cm is a strong choice as an eye-catcher. If you really want to make a statement, 120 cm or 140 cm will give you an impressive look.

Choosing the right spot is not only about measuring, but also about looking at your furniture and walking routes. If you hang above a sofa or chest of drawers, it is nice if the circle falls optically in the middle of that piece of furniture. In a Kids' Room, a playful effect often works well by hanging slightly lower, so that the design is also visible from children's height. Make a note for yourself of the size you want and check that there is enough space around it to allow the design to "breathe". That way it will be a beautiful addition that matches the rest of your interior.

Design, decoration and multiple round wall art combined per room

Because we have a large collection with different designs, there is something for every space. Think quiet japandi styles for a serene atmosphere, or instead a van Gogh sculpture and old masters if you're looking for a classic twist. For the living room, many people choose a striking design that immediately attracts attention; find inspiration at round wall art living room. In a Kids' Room, cute themes such as forest animals often do well, and they give the room instant warmth and character. For a baby's room you can also take a look at round wall art for a soft, calm look.

You can also combine several round wall art, for example two or three circles in different sizes next to each other. It helps to choose one main circle and place smaller sizes around it to keep the whole thing in balance. Pay attention to the distance between the circles and make sure it feels like one composition, not separate decoration. If in doubt, first lay out the positions with paper templates or painter's tape on the wall. That way you can see in advance whether it will be playful or too busy.
