The Exact 5-Print La Dolce Vita Gallery Wall — Sizes, Spacing & Shopping List

A complete, ready-to-copy look that brings Italian summer into your home. Pick the prints, follow the layout, done.

There's a reason Mediterranean interiors keep showing up on every mood board this summer: warm terracotta floors, linen curtains glowing in the light, a glass of something cold and orange on the table. It's aspirational, but it doesn't have to stay on Pinterest. With the right set of prints, you can bring that exact feeling into your living room, dining area, or hallway — no renovation required.

We put together a five-print gallery wall using our La Dolce Vita collection — complete with suggested sizes, exact spacing, and a ready-to-shop list. Think of this as a recipe: follow it step by step, or adjust to taste.

The Shopping List

Why These Five Work Together

A gallery wall only looks "curated" when the prints share a visual thread. Here, that thread is the Mediterranean palette: sun-bleached blues, warm ochres, citrus yellows, and a pop of Aperol orange. Every print tells a different story — coastal cliffs, a lemon grove, a Spritz on a terrace — but together they feel like five snapshots from the same Italian summer.

The key is mixing subject types while keeping colors consistent. You've got a landscape (Amalfi), a cityscape (Positano), a still life (lemons), a food-and-drink piece (Spritz), and a botanical-style composition (oranges). That variety keeps the eye moving without creating visual chaos.

The Layout — How to Arrange Them

Think of the arrangement as a loose, asymmetrical composition rather than a strict grid. Here's the approach that works best for five pieces:

Start with the anchor. The Amalfi Coast print goes in the centre, slightly above the others. Choose the largest size available (50×70 cm / 20×28 in) for this piece — it sets the tone for everything around it.

Flank it. Place the Positano landscape and the Capri Lemons print on either side of the anchor, one row lower. These should be a step smaller (40×50 cm / 16×20 in works well).

Fill the edges. The Aperol Spritz and Sicilian Oranges prints go on the outer edges, slightly offset. A 30×40 cm (12×16 in) size keeps them proportional without competing with the anchor.

Spacing: Keep 5–8 cm (2–3 inches) between each piece. Consistent gaps are what make the whole arrangement feel intentional.

Where to Place This Wall

Above a sideboard or console is the most natural spot — it gives you a surface below for styling objects that echo the prints (a lemon bowl, a vintage glass, a small plant). But this layout also works beautifully above a sofa, above a dining table, or running along a hallway wall.

Whichever wall you choose, hang the centre of the arrangement at roughly eye level — about 145–150 cm (57–59 inches) from the floor. If it's above furniture, leave about 15–20 cm (6–8 inches) between the furniture top and the bottom of the lowest print.

Style the Space Around It

The prints do most of the work, but a few small touches tie the room together. Natural materials — rattan, linen, warm wood, ceramic — complement the Mediterranean feel. A terracotta pot, a woven basket, or a simple linen throw on the sofa is enough. Keep it simple; the wall is the focal point.

Avoid anything too dark or industrial near this set. The whole mood is light, warm, and sun-drenched — let it breathe.
