I am in my late 60s, and I grew up with the understanding that formal portraits were fine in public spaces, but that photos were better in private spaces. I think we have become more flexible, but I get where Lisa is coming from. Actually, when my parents passed away I discovered a treasure trove of black and white family pictures from the late 1800s and early 1900s. I framed them with black frames and white mats to make a gallery wall in my very modern dining room. People ALWAYS spend time looking at them because they are interesting. If you display pictures intentionally, following good design, it will work.

My friends parents have a huge gallery wall in their staircase leading from the main living area upstairs to the bedrooms. The gallery wall shows pictures of the whole family at different stages of their life and pictures from when the kids were baby's (now grwon up) to their first grandkids. And I always loved it as a guest. It's not so much in your face on the living room, but when you are close enough to the family that they would let you upstairs you would quickly pass all their pictures. I sometimes walked extra slow to see all of them. I think this is a great idea to handle it!

Hi Lisa, I admit that I felt a little left out in this video as the tips seemed to be for large homes. Such as don't put living room furniture against the walls. I'm sure if someone has a small living room at least one chair or sofa will end up against a wall. The no family photos only makes sense IF you have a separate family room aka the living room is really your parlor which isn't the case for many homes and even then it seems a little exaggerated. I doubt people would mind seeing a small photo or two say 4x5 or smaller in a frame along with other items like on a shelf or side table. I'd just try to avoid making the photos a focal point. As for the fireplace... well my house won't have one. My parents do and it is over their fireplace as there are shelves on both sides. They normally watch tv from the kitchen or dining table which is a little higher up. I am going to instead have counter height storage built into that wall to mirror the height of the kitchen peninsula opposite it so my TV will still be a little higher that sitting eye height. This is important for me since my house will be very small and I don't want to store everything in the kitchen cabinets!

I agree with Lisa on this one. My living room is more about displaying cool art. Family photos of people unknown to visitors don't make the room feel inviting to guests the way that art does that they can comment on.

I’ve also found taking a video of a space and looking at it on screen can help identify any areas that could be better styled or designed. Thanks for all the tips, I managed to check all off the list as already something I already do, but it did help validate my design logic 😆 I can understand that some people will not appreciate the point about personal photos. I think that they could be displayed as works of art or in beautiful frames as a design statement, but too many in a prominent place might be a bit overwhelming. I personally have all mine in our hallway as a gallery wall and in bedrooms, but wouldn’t be at all offended to walk into a home with personal photos in a living space.

Great tips as always Lisa!!!!! I agree with family photos in more private spaces. I read this many years ago, considered the pros and cons and decided it was the way to go. We have black and white professional photos of our sons-I believe the style was called baby body parts, and they are in our bedroom hung in a gallery wall style. Absolutely love it and so timeless too. We have our extended family photos and our sons senior and personality graduation photos in black frames with white mat boards hung in the main hallway. The colorful photos are made cohesive by the unifying matboards and frames. I also have a few favorites pictures of our parents and grandparents wedding days framed in my home office. - This is a funny little thing I've noticed about having photos in the hallway...Many times someone has gone to use the guest bathroom in the hallway and emerged with a comment to the rest of the group about how great the photos are in the hall etc. Having the family photos to peruse in the hall is nice for people. So if they happened to go MIA in the bathroom for a bit, they were simply held up enjoying all the photos down the hall! Or just have some fantastical art !!! smiley face

People rave about our family photos. Taken professionally in a less posey way... put in black and white.... framed with matting looks like art. I saved the wedding photos for our bedroom and instead opted to keep our wedding album in the sitting room in case folks ask about our wedding photos.

Okay I too am struggling with a couple points from this video. I'm moving my family of six into a very small apartment for the next couple of years, so we will have to put our couch along the wall, and we won't have any spaces but two bedrooms for photos (granted I don't have tons because kids grow so fast I can't keep up!), But I do know what she means. I've been in homes where there appeared to be almost a shrine to each child, and or pet in the living room. It can feel awkward after a while. All of that being true, I have also been to homes, my husband's great grandmother's for example where I found every photo enchanting and captivating. They went back almost 100 years! This is Lisa's professional opinion, of course you can take it or leave it. I'm glad she shared it here!

Somewhere in the middle i am . . . Like in the kitchen near the table one large vintage photo like one of my grandparents in their restaurant in b&w but with good composition so it looks like a big piece of “art” ykwim? Same with family photos that look more like a photo shoot than a snapshot. Like that shot of a closeup face bringing out the eyes, or a candid where they are not aware of the camera That is my two cents. I think family photos can work in public spaces. Also helps create conversation I also think on canvas floating no frames closer together so it looks like one big piece of “art”

I have been donating, trashing, rearranging and trying not to lose my mind during the two years since her passing. One day I am going to put some of your good advice into practice. Really, I am.

I’m lucky enough to have hunted, found, and bought back an heirloom antique table that had previously come down in my family. It’s a carved, round parlor table, and the best place I have for it is a corner of my living room. I didn’t plan it, but the family table ended up having a few, and then a group (now 8) black and white family photos, dating from 1890 to 1948. As I am able, I find more interesting, vintage frames for these, and a few family mementoes join the mix, all around a lamp in grandma’s china pattern. I actually don’t care for a lot of family photos on display, but have made this exception, and it suits my old house and me. It’s in a corner out of the traffic pattern, so in nobody’s face. Visitors and family gravitate to it, though, and it serves to start many stories.

If you have to display them use the family room, or a personal office, or a library, or the bedroom. But a living room, or a dining room (especially a formal dining room), are not to be cluttered with personal pics. Its just tacky. Display instead a beautiful painting, or a sculpture, or a collection of carefully curated art objects, etc. This is where you can express your style and taste and not the family altar!

Lisa, thank you for your videos each week. They are very entertaining and informative. You are a joy to watch. Just wanted to add my comments. I believe there are exceptions to every rule - just as some rules are made to be broken. As far as the TV over the fireplace goes, if there is a raised hearth, then I agree that the TV would be too high for comfortable viewing. If the hearth is even with the floor and the TV is at least 42", then the seating area should be far enough away so the viewer does not need to crane their neck to view the screen (even in a smallish room, and particularly in a smallish room where another wall may put the TV too close to the seating for comfortable viewing). Also, for the most part, I don't have personal photographs in my living room because I don't share those things with many people, but I do have two special black and white photographs of my parents when they were first married in the 1940s (now deceased father and very much alive 96 year-old mother). I like having the photos where I can see them the most, and anyone who would be uncomfortable seeing those photos would just be uncomfortable. I find that strange, but that would not matter to me. They were probably just a friend of a friend who came along for the ride.
