Frameology Launches Four Luxe Gallery Walls With Hanging Templates

Four new Luxe gallery wall arrangements from Frameology offer coordinated frames and a paper template to guide hanging.

Written by Karen Koehler

A polished gallery wall sounds lovely, until you have to measure every gap and hammer in a dozen nails, knowing one slip leaves your favorite photo hanging crooked. Frameology offers a hanging template system designed to simplify the process. The company recently announced four new Luxe gallery wall arrangements as part of its ready-to-hang collection, just in time for the holidays. The layouts include:

  • Luxe Mixed Grid
  • Luxe Mixed Grid II
  • Luxe Wide
  • Luxe Offset

The Lineup

Their latest drop features four curated arrangements, each offering distinct frame counts and mat configurations.

Each of the gallery walls listed above comes in black, white, dark brown wood, and natural light wood finishes. The frames also feature a two-point, no-wire hanging system designed to help with placement and alignment. With several arrangements and finishes available, the collection could be an option for wedding gifts, holiday gifts, or housewarming presents.

Curating Cohesive Visual Storytelling

Beyond the convenience of hanging the frames, the arrangement itself can change how a collection of photographs looks on a wall. Frameology’s Luxe gallery walls offer different layouts for displaying photos of various sizes and orientations.

Whether you're displaying wedding portraits, family photos, travel snapshots, or anything under the sun, Frameology's ready-to-hang layouts offer a starting point for arranging them together. The preset spacing can help avoid some of the uneven gaps that come with planning a gallery wall yourself. For anyone who likes the look of a coordinated display, having an arrangement already planned may make the decorating process a little easier.

How To Install Frameology Luxe Gallery Walls

The kit comes with a life-size paper template, hanging hardware, and a mini-level to help with installation. Here’s how the template works in six easy steps:

  1. Tape the template on your desired wall
  2. Mark the required spots for each frame
  3. Hammer nail holes over each spot you marked
  4. Remove template off the wall
  5. Hammer plastic marker and nails into the walls
  6. Hang your frames in the right places

The spacing plan is printed directly on the paper template, which can save some of the measuring and second-guessing that comes with arranging frames individually.

How It Compares With Doing It Yourself

A self-planned wall gives you maximum control over the arrangement, but you choose it, measure it, and source every hook yourself. A local framer offers an in-person consultation, though it usually costs much more and doesn’t include a guided template.

The Luxe system takes a different approach, with a predetermined layout, framed photos delivered to your home, and installation guidance included. Whether the guided setup beats sourcing separate frames depends on how much you value your afternoon.

Long-Term Protection And Print Quality

Precision placement is one consideration, but the materials used to frame a photograph matter, too. Frameology offers different matting options for its Luxe gallery walls, allowing customers to choose how their photos are presented. The frames also use acrylic instead of traditional glass.

The frames use a two-point mounting system intended to help keep them in position once they're hung. This may reduce the need for frequent adjustments, although proper installation and wall conditions can affect how securely any frame stays in place.

The Company Behind The Template

Frameology is a family-owned online framing company based in New York City. Founder Ben Koren followed his family's background in framing when he launched the online business in 2015.

The company’s Luxe gallery walls pair coordinated frames with a preset hanging plan. Customers can choose from several arrangements and frame finishes depending on the photographs they want to display.
