When people think of frames with details, they might imagine heavy gold moulding, elaborate carvings, and ornate or traditional designs.
While we love that style, there is a whole other world beyond the classic and decorative, detailed frame. Let's take a look.
Detail doesn’t have to be classical to be impactful. Playful design elements that feel fresh, modern, and full of personality have hit the scene. Think texture, colour, and playful design elements. Texture
Texture is so important in design, and a hammered moulding adds just the right amount with its balance of contemporary and craftsmanship. While this style takes a note from the past, it still feels re-invented with a slim profile and subtle brushed finish. This subtle design choice creates a polished look with movement and tactile interest.
Colour
We often use this profile for modern art that wants to make a statement! This moulding brings the antique detail, but with the contrasting elements of bold colours and a lacquered finish. The high-gloss surface reflects light, giving the frame a sleek, sculptured feel.
Subtle accents
The smallest bevel or edging down the middle of a moulding can create a delicate and understated detail. This sophisticated design element is often seen on wood mouldings.
Whimsy
We love bringing some whimsy into a custom framing. A playful colour and an unexpected texture can add personality to a piece that is intentional yet still very much design-focused.
