My room where my wife hung up a picture. 
 
ETA fuck any builder that runs wall studs horizontals to save a few bucks.  Just making the wife problem worse

Wait...runs wall studs horizontal? Say more about this...

They’re not holding anything up. It’s just framing to hold up drywall. I think it saves a handful of 2x4s. They did this on our house built in about 2000. I also recently found it on a house we are redoing built in about 1950

Weird. I've heard of blocking in specific spots for specific things, but never seen this.

I’m not saying it is right. I think it is done to save a few bucks by people who don’t know what they’re doing and/or don’t think anyone will notice. I’ll see if I can find pictures of the one we gutted.

The 1950s home as we were taking it down

That’s a lot of weight on very few studs!

As an architect I wouldn't have believed this without seeing it.
