Tried doing everything for that empty corner in your living area but nothing seems to work? You probably haven’t tried the gallery wall display. It’s a myth that you need a large wall for your dream gallery, a corner works just nicely. Create an eye-catching, asymmetric display on the corner walls using these classy gouache paintings  from Ikka-Dukka. Extending a gallery wall into a corner makes the space look more cohesive. For an even more swoon-worthy gallery, pick large metallic paint artworks from Evolve. Or create a fun space with quirky wall art from Krita & Penna.

Storage in the corner is an opportunity that you grab as soon as it presents itself. A corner is the perfect place for extra storage pieces.

Another amazing hack for an entryway corner is to put up fancy hooks that can be used for hanging grab and go essentials. Topp Brass has ornamental hooks that double up as wall decor when not in use.
