What size poster does your room actually need
The two-thirds rule, furniture math and the paper-template trick for getting print sizes right.
Our most asked question, answered plainly: measure your wall, then go bigger than feels safe. A poster that covers roughly two-thirds of the furniture below it looks deliberate; anything smaller reads as an afterthought.
For a sofa 200cm wide, aim for 120 to 140cm of art — one statement piece or a pair. Above a desk, a single A2 print usually does the job. Leave at least 15cm between the top of furniture and the bottom of the frame.
When in doubt, tape paper templates to the wall and live with them for a day. The right size announces itself.
