Can you hang art in a bathroom?

Yes, you can hang art in a bathroom as long as it is placed outside direct splash zones and the room has adequate ventilation. Framed cotton prints sealed behind lightweight acrylic plexiglass or tensioned cotton canvases work best, resisting typical humidity without warping or mildew.

Keep all artwork at least 60 cm away from the edges of showers, tubs, and sinks. Avoid hanging prints directly above an open bathtub where steam concentrates. In dry zones, place the centre of your frame at standard eye level, roughly 145 to 150 cm from the floor.

For high-humidity spaces, choose prints in solid ayous wood frames with protective plexiglass rather than heavy mineral glass. Acrylic tolerates temperature fluctuations better and minimizes internal condensation. When hanging a stretched canvas, leave a 5 mm gap behind the stretcher to promote airflow.
