Why Oversized Art?

You may be asking yourself why you should frame your oversized art? Well, aside from filling up that huge empty spot above your couch, oversized art can create a focal point in a space. Creating visual places in your space for your eyes to rest is important in design. This simply means, have one piece in your room that is eye catching. Creating a solid focal point (like an incredible large framed landscape or abstract) is a perfect place to start. People will often use art that is too small for a space, but as a general rule, try for the art to be around 2/3 the size of the furniture it's hanging above.

Where Can I Put It?

The most common spaces for oversized art include walls in the living room, bedroom or a long wall in a hallway. The emptier the wall, the better, place large format paintings right next to a large window for a modern interior design touch. We can frame custom frame your oversized art all the way up to 55"x79", so you can custom frame your piece to suit any space. If you're curious, some other popular large format sizes include: 55.25x39.25" / 30.75x46.75" /  55.75x74.75" / 22x55".

How To Decorate With Oversized Art?

We can frame anything from a digital print to canvas, a poster or family photo! Get creative, hang a large framed poster or an oversized vintage map in your spaces to fill your walls. Try to include the colours of motifs in your artwork into your space. This can be as easy as including a rug with similar colours as your artwork to create a well balanced and cohesive interior. When hanging a larger custom framed artwork, remember to either put the nail into a wall stud, or try to use wall plugs if you're hanging them in dry wall.
