How Big Should Wall Clock be?

The size of the wall clock is the first question to ask. It is the most important point to make sure you make the right choice. Because we do not change the clock every year!
You must determine where you will put it. On which wall do you think it will be really highlighted? Allow enough space near the clock. It should not be hung next to objects that would hide it. Here is an important clarification: if a clock has a diameter of 50 cm, once placed, there must be 25 cm of free space around it.
Exceptionally, the clock can be hung near other decorations. The aim is simply to create a special atmosphere.
First of all, it is necessary that the clock takes into account the surface of the room. It is obvious that a large clock cannot be installed in a small living room! The space occupied by the clock should not be more than a third of the wall. It is also important to know how to hang the clock safely.
