How to Match Art with the Perfect Frame Colour 😇
Choosing the right frame colour can completely transform how your artwork looks and feels in your home. It’s not just about protection, it’s about enhancing the piece and bringing it to life. Here are our top tips:
Pull a Colour from the Artwork Pick out a subtle tone from the piece itself, not necessarily the main colour, but something in the background or detail. This creates a cohesive, intentional look. Black, White & Natural Wood = Safe Classics If you want something timeless, these neutral tones almost always work. They let the artwork take centre stage without overpowering it.
Match the Mood, Not Just the Colour Soft pastels work beautifully with light woods or white frames, while bold, dramatic artwork can handle darker, richer frames like black, walnut, or gold.
Consider Your Space Think about where the artwork will hang. Lighter frames can open up smaller rooms, while darker frames can add depth and contrast in larger spaces.
When in Doubt, Go Subtle A good frame should enhance the artwork, not compete with it. Not sure what would work best? That’s exactly what we’re here for! We’ll help you find a frame that makes your artwork look its absolute best. Pop in or message us for advice on your next framing project.🥰
