Celebrity Gallery Walls to Inspire Your Home in 2026

Dakota Johnson’s green kitchen. Troye Sivan’s midcentury Melbourne house. Emma Chamberlain’s sun-drenched kitchen. What is it about this cultural obsession with celebrity homes and the way they live? Every Architectural Digest tour racks up millions of views, feeding our collective craving to see the rich and famous in their natural habitats.

Older shows that have pioneered this genre of celebrity reality, such as Lifestyles of the Rich and Famous and Cribs, framed that curiosity as an adjunct to the American dream: the idea that hard work leads to fortune, and fortune leads to a life worth showing off. Even if that now sounds like a stretch, the appeal remains: watching celebrities drop the glam, walk through their own halls, and talk about what makes their spaces personal.

And when it comes to personal touches, gallery walls say it all. (Guilty: we’re just as hooked as everyone else on these celebrity home tours.) As we head into 2026, here are some of the standout gallery wall layouts we’re loving right now, perfect for sparking your next home curation.

Josh Brolin’s Malibu home leans into warmth and lived-in comfort, brought together by Pierce & Ward’s relaxed but thoughtful design. His entryway gallery wall is an immediate mood setter, layered with pieces that echo the house’s earthy palette while slipping in a few sharp blues and striking reds to break up the coziness. The mix keeps the space from feeling too uniform and gives the whole entryway a quiet sense of personality. 

The Weapons star’s gallery wall is an excellent example of how a well-curated setup can strike that balance between easygoing and intentional, and it’s a solid reference point if you want your own gallery to feel more collected rather than overly styled.

The Severance Emmy winner has one feature we’ll never get tired of pointing out: a mixed media gallery wall done right. Her setup pulls together all kinds of shapes and textures, yet everything still feels intentional. You’ll spot scissors, small curios, and bold, funky frames with thick borders and square lashings that give the whole arrangement a playful edge.

Britt Lower’s wall is the perfect case study for how a gallery can tell your story. One glance and you already know something about the person who put it together. Gallery wall templates and rules are really just loose guides, and her display proves that the magic happens when you bend them a bit. Those unexpected touches are what make a collection feel personal and genuinely lived-in.

In Kendall Jenner’s Architectural Digest home tour, we see her walls filled with art and stylish displays. Our personal favorite for how they truly personalize her Los Angeles home: her glam room, where every wall is lined with a perfectly arranged gallery of her Vogue magazine covers. The uniform layout and careful spacing give it a sleek, editorial feel, while also telling the story of her career and achievements.

It’s a reminder that classic photo gallery walls are classics for a reason: when done thoughtfully, repetition and consistency reflect both personality and accomplishment, making it both a bold statement and a personal archive.

The lead guitarist of Fleetwood Mac once opened the doors to his home with his designer wife, Kristen Buckingham. Their living room, co-designed with architect Kevin Clark, features a striking asymmetrical gallery wall that pulls everything together. Pops of green and orange echo across the setup, tying in with the throw pillows, lamps, and furniture for a warm, lived-in harmony that feels curated without feeling stiff.

Modern asymmetrical gallery walls are a great way to bring in a playful, collected energy. They let you mix shapes, sizes, and stories without worrying about perfect symmetry. When done like this, the result feels effortless, personal, and confidently offbeat. 

Among the many Kardashian home features that make the rounds online, Kourtney Kardashian’s gallery wall in her home office stood out to us for its smart, slightly rebellious layout. The home office gallery doesn’t follow the usual rules. Instead of a clean grid or a carefully measured asymmetrical spread, it intentionally mixes heights, sizes, and placements. Some pieces hang, others lean on an elevated ledge, and the spacing shifts just enough to give the whole wall a lived-in rhythm.

What makes this setup so interesting is how it plays with the idea of a gallery wall rather than strictly following its rules. It’s a clever hybrid that mimics a gallery wall while playing with alternative ways to display art. You get the layered, collected look without peppering the wall with holes or agonizing over perfect spacing. It’s a nice reminder that the best displays don’t come from rigid templates, but from experimenting with how you want pieces to exist in your space.

A few years ago, David Harbour and Lily Allen’s Architectural Digest home tour made the rounds online for all the right reasons. Their Brooklyn brownstone didn’t just stand out among the sea of celebrity interiors; it practically sang. The space leans fully into a whimsical, maximalist world filled with bold florals, patterned carpets, antique finds, and an overwhelming devotion to every shade of chartreuse and olive green. If there’s one thing this home does, it’s celebrate vintage charm with absolute confidence.

In the photo above, you’ll see a neatly arranged gallery wall of vintage botanical illustrations. The tight grid lines up beautifully with the rest of the space, echoing the floral motifs that show up in nearly every wallpaper, curtain, carpet, and upholstery. It’s a small moment within an otherwise lavish home, but it pulls everything together with a quiet kind of storytelling, becoming a subtle anchor that reinforces the atmosphere as a whole. 

No introductions needed – who doesn’t know Sir Elton John? Technically, this is not a home gallery wall, rather a personal collection exhibited in a gallery, but we couldn’t resist adding to the end of our list. In 1990, the Tate Modern exhibited pieces from the artist’s collection. It’s a testament to his other great love besides music: photography. The collection spans modernist works from 1920 to 1950, arguably the most experimental and important period in the history of photography, and blends works by masters of the medium with those of lesser-known artists.

Beyond personal expression, one of the core principles of a gallery wall is the curator or collector’s depth of knowledge. What makes Elton John’s collection so remarkable is this devotion. The act is fueled by passion rather than showmanship; he visits private galleries, requests to see personal collections, and carefully builds a collection that reflects his interests and expertise. It’s a prime example of how a thoughtfully curated wall or collection can reveal the person’s intentions.

To bring your own gallery wall inspiration to life, the proper hardware makes all the difference. We recommend starting with our tried and trusted methods of how to make a gallery wall:

This one is a classic. Before you decide, make sure to note these three critical points: your wall type, your frame material, and your frame weight. This will help narrow down which hooks or hangers to use for each frame or item. 

Our collection of hanging hooks, art hangers, and picture hanging wires covers a wide range of substrates and frame weights, making it easy to mix and match for any gallery wall.

If you already have a picture molding, brass gallery rods are a perfect choice. They can hold multiple frames while adding a stylish touch. No molding? No problem—we also offer brass wall-mount moldings that deliver the same polished look.

If you’re planning a larger arrangement, our gallery hanging systems take the guesswork out of spacing and alignment. Designed to hold multiple frames and accommodate different layouts, they make building a cohesive, professional-looking gallery wall simple and straightforward.

If there’s one thing these celebrity walls prove, it’s that a good gallery wall doesn’t follow a single formula. The examples above are personal, expressive, a little dramatic, and even delightfully chaotic. It’s all about intention: every wall is a map of someone’s tastes, obsessions, and memories. 

The fun part is you don’t need fancy stylists or an Architectural Digest feature to pull off the same magic, so long as you fully define what your intentions are, just like with any project. So take what sparks something in you, leave the rest, and start curating a corner that will signal a good year ahead.
