The Ultimate Guide to Poster Sizes: From 20×30cm to 60×90cm

Why Poster Size Matters

Choosing the right poster size is one of the most important decisions when decorating your space. Too small and your poster gets lost on the wall; too large and it can overwhelm the room. Whether you're decorating a bedroom, living room, or home office, understanding our poster sizes will help you create the perfect look.

Our Poster Sizes Explained

20 × 30 cm / 8 × 12 in

Our smallest size, perfect for desk displays, small shelves, or creating a dense gallery wall. It works especially well in compact spaces like student rooms or home offices. Pair several 20 × 30 cm prints together for a curated, editorial feel.

30 × 40 cm / 12 × 16 in

One of our most popular sizes for good reason — it's versatile enough to stand alone on a small wall or blend into a larger gallery arrangement. It's ideal for bedrooms, hallways, and bathrooms where you want a statement without dominating the space.

40 × 60 cm / 16 × 24 in

Step up to this size when you want your poster to be a true focal point. It works beautifully above a sofa, bed headboard, or fireplace — large enough to command attention but still easy to frame and hang.

50 × 75 cm (≈20 × 30 in)

A popular choice for living rooms and bedrooms, this size creates a noticeable statement without overpowering your décor. It works beautifully above a console table, bed, or as the centerpiece of a gallery wall.

60 × 90 cm (≈24 × 36 in)

Our largest available size is designed to make an impact. Perfect for spacious walls, above sofas or king-size beds, or as a standalone statement piece, it brings a premium gallery feel to any room.

How to Choose the Right Size for Your Room

A good rule of thumb: your poster or art arrangement should cover roughly 60–75% of the available wall width. For a sofa that's 180 cm wide, aim for artwork or a gallery wall that spans around 110–135 cm.

• Small rooms & bathrooms: 20 × 30 cm or 30 × 40 cm
• Bedrooms & home offices: 30 × 40 cm or 40 × 60 cm
• Living rooms: 40 × 60 cm or 50 × 75 cm
• Large walls & open spaces: 50 × 75 cm or 60 × 90 cm

Gallery Walls: Mix and Match Sizes

Gallery walls are one of the most popular ways to decorate a space. By combining different poster sizes, you can create a unique and personalized display.

A classic arrangement features one 50 × 75 cm poster as the centerpiece, paired with two 30 × 40 cm posters and several 20 × 30 cm prints. For a clean, professional look, keep 5–8 cm (2–3 inches) of spacing between each frame and stick to a consistent theme or colour palette.
