Perfect Picture Hanging Turns a House into a Home
Many ILevel clients come to us having just finished renovating a home or moving into a new place. We are often the last people on the scene, adding the final touches to a renovation or move. We’ve been told that after we’ve provided our professional art installation services a new space truly feels like home.
It’s Family Photo Wall Season
In about a month, you may feel completely overwhelmed by the 3,000 photos you’ve taken of your kids, your family reunion, that weekend at the beach. You might wish for help selecting and displaying the best of these photos on your walls so that you can remember and relive the fleeting moments of summer.
The Professional Art Hanging Process, During and After
Usually we post photos of our finished professional art hanging projects. Today we have rare shots of the process as it’s unfolding. Here’s Jack working with this collection of Damien Hirst spot paintings. First, he lays out this salon style installation on the floor where he can work with the pieces like a jigsaw puzzle to find the most appealing arrangement.
ILevel’s Exceptional Customer Service
Everyone loves action shots of ILevel’s professional art installers hard at work. This photo captures our zeal for exceptional customer service. While this moose is being securely installed to the wall by one ILevel designer, there’s someone else on hand to feed the beast.
The Magic of Hiring a Professional Picture Hanging Company
You’ve got 30 photos lying about your apartment. Some on the floor, some propped up against the walls, a few you’ve tried to hang yourself with less than perfect success. You’ve got better things to do than struggle with a drill, hammer, and level.
A Whimsical Girl’s Room Design
Children’s rooms are places of comfort and rest, but also of imagination and play. While it can be tough to decorate a space that perfectly encapsulates and promotes each of these uses, we recently worked on a bedroom design that did just that. This beautiful girl’s room design was soft and light, fun and restful all at once.
Hanging Art in a Perfect Circle
As professional art installers, hanging complicated wall art is actually a lot of fun for us. It presents a challenge outside of the everyday, and it’s exciting to come up with a solution that works, and have a satisfied client at the end of it all.
6 Beautiful Examples of Layered Art
One of our favorite decor trends of the moment is the layered art look. Mixing pieces leaned up against the wall with pieces hanging on it, or bookcases arranged with art both atop the shelves and hanging off of them. Layering art is a beautiful way to showcase a variety of smaller works (it’s a great substitution for a gallery wall!), highlight contrast between different pieces, and add a unique and different aspect to your decor.
How to Hang a Triptych
A triptych is a piece of wall art that’s broken into three panels. Which means hanging it can present a set of challenges different from a regular, single panel work of art, since even the slightest misplacement while hanging can become very obvious, given that it will throw off the continuity of the piece.
Art Installation at the Ricco Maresca Gallery
In addition to residential clients and interior designers, we often work with art galleries to switch out their exhibits, and figure out how to best showcase the work of a new artist.
How to Decide What to Hang Above the Bed
There are certain spots in the home where we find people have a tougher time deciding what to put in them. Namely: The entryway, above a sofa, and over the bed. Our theory is that these are prominent spots in the home, places that make first impressions and where we spend a lot of time, so there’s pressure to choose the right piece, something that’s beautiful, and speaks to our style and personalities.
6 Fresh Ways to Use Wall Shelves for Art
We love when a trend gives us a new way to hang art. It fuels creativity and gives us a new perspective on our work. One of the big trends a lot of clients have been asking for is to have wall shelves installed to hold their art.
7 Inspiring Decorative Plate Displays
Though most of our work consists of hanging photos, art, tapestries and mirrors, we’re also called upon by our clients to hang other items on their walls. From taxidermy, to ships’ wheels, to sculptures, we’ve hung it all. But one of the more common items we’re asked to hang are decorative plates.
ILevel Recent Art Hanging Projects
One of the things we love most about our work is that no two days are alike. Sure, most days involve hanging things on walls, but those “things” are always different, as is the locale where they’re hung. To prove just how diverse our work can be, here’s a quick look at seven of our most recent projects.
