Wall studio

Your wall, her work, at true size

Upload a photo of the wall, set the scale, then drop a work in place.

Add a photograph of your wall, or pick a sample below, to begin.

Two-handle ruler

145 cm eye-line

1. Wall photo

Up to 8 MB on load; the photo is decoded and rescaled in your browser. Rooms you save keep a compact copy (long edge 2048 px, JPEG) so twelve rooms fit comfortably on the device.

2. Set the scale

Tap a reference, then drag the ruler across it in the photograph.

Drag the two ruler handles across the reference object.

3. Square up (optional)

Only needed if your photo was shot slightly off axis.

4. Choose a work

Compare shows the second work over the same wall at 40 per cent opacity, so you can judge two candidates in one place.

5. Frame
6. Eye-line

145 cm is museum standard for a work of medium size.

7. Print sizes (optional)

Hairline rectangles at true ISO size, to compare a framed print.

Hang a set of three (optional)

Hang a set of three (or more)

Place two to five works along the eye-line.

Colour advisor

A colour-only suggestion runs on this device once you have loaded a photograph. It never leaves your browser.

8. Keep or share
Ask the studio about this

Save the picture first if you would like the studio to see it; the message form opens with the works you placed already listed, and you can attach the saved picture or describe the room.

How this works

The photograph is decoded in your browser and rescaled to fit a working canvas. The scale you set is stored as pixels per centimetre; every drop is then drawn at its true size using that number. If you tick Square up, four handles let you trace an orthogonal rectangle on the wall; the overlay is warped by a planar homography so subsequent placements sit on the real plane. Nothing leaves your browser: the photograph, the scale and the placements stay on this device.
