The complete guide
Getting the most out of LuMAGIC's multicolour 7-piece hexagon set
Hexagon tiles tessellate cleanly, which makes planning the layout the one step worth doing before the adhesive backing comes off.
Start from the centre, not a corner
Mark the centre of the area you're covering and dry-fit the first hexagon there before peeling any backing. Working outward from a centred tile keeps the pattern symmetrical even if the wall itself isn't a perfect rectangle — the trimmed, half-tiles end up at the edges where they're least noticeable, rather than in the middle of the wall.
Planning a layout the app can actually drive
Touch-activated, magnetic hexagon lights rather than app-controlled. Sketch the shape on paper first — most control apps let you draw the physical layout so lighting effects (like colour waves or music sync) travel across the panels in the direction you intended, rather than in the order they happened to connect.
