Small Spaces, Big Impact: Hanging Tips for Apartments

Small Spaces, Big Impact: Hanging Tips for Apartments

Roger Willis

By The Hangmaster – Professional Picture Hanging in Perth, Australia

Living in a small apartment doesn’t mean you need to compromise on style or personality. In fact, with the right wall hanging strategy, you can transform even the tiniest space into a stylish and functional home. Whether you're renting in Perth or own your unit, making smart use of your walls is key.

1. Think Vertical: Make Use of Wall Height

When floor space is limited, vertical design becomes your best friend. Hang artwork, mirrors, or floating shelves higher up to draw the eye upward and create a sense of openness.

The Hangmaster Tip: Use consistent spacing and layout for a clean look. Not sure where to start? Our professional picture hanging service in Perth can help design and install your layout perfectly.

2. Go Renter-Friendly with Lightweight Solutions

Apartments often come with restrictions on drilling holes or making modifications. Opt for lightweight frames, canvas art, or mirrors that can be hung using damage-free systems.

We specialise in no-damage art and mirror hanging in Perth—ideal for renters looking to personalise their space without losing their bond.

3. Create a Compact Gallery Wall

Make a bold statement with a curated mini gallery wall. Choose pieces with a shared colour scheme or style, and keep the spacing tight to suit smaller walls.

Need help curating and installing your wall art? Our team at The Hangmaster provides art hanging and picture mounting services across Perth.

4. Use Mirrors to Expand the Space

Mirrors are a powerful tool in small apartments—they reflect light and create the illusion of space. A well-placed mirror can brighten a dark corner or visually double a room’s size.

Ask us about our professional mirror hanging service in Perth to ensure safe and secure installation on any surface.

5. Mount Your TV to Free Up Space

TV cabinets can eat up valuable square metres. Wall-mounted TVs are not only modern but also free up floor space for other uses.

Our team also offers TV mounting services in Perth—complete with solid wall brackets and expert installation.

What our clients say

Hear from satisfied clients who trusted us with their hanging needs.

Wow!! What rockstars! Not only were the incredibly quick, they were both such gentlemen. Nothing was too much despite me adding on this and that every time they finished something. I’ll be having them hang some more items and have recommended them to friends and family already.

With only a short window of time available before the CEO's unveiling, the team at Hangmaster not only managed to deliver our Wall of Fame in time, but did it to an exceptional level of quality. Polite, professional and a pleasure to work with.

Amazing system! I have just purchased my second lot of Nylon hangers and Smart Hooks to add more painting to our walls. This is the best system ever - so easy to use. I can take all of the art of the wall and move it around whenever I wish (usually twice a year). No marks and holes in walls!
