Prints ship unframed and rolled in a tube. Here's how to get them onto your wall looking their best.
Sizes
| Size | Centimeters | Inches | Good for |
|---|---|---|---|
| A4 | 21 × 29.7 | 8.3 × 11.7 | Desks, shelves, gallery walls |
| A3 | 29.7 × 42 | 11.7 × 16.5 | Hallways, above a nightstand |
| A2 | 42 × 59.4 | 16.5 × 23.4 | Statement pieces, above a sofa |
All sizes are standard, so they fit off-the-shelf frames from most furniture and craft shops — no custom framing needed.
Choosing a frame
Light oak or natural wood warms up cream paper and suits almost any room.
Black sharpens up typographic prints and makes the lettering the hero.
White disappears into a pale wall and lets the print float.
A mount (mat) board adds a border of empty space around the print. It costs a little more and makes almost any piece look considerably more expensive.
Flattening your print
Prints arrive with a gentle curl from the tube. Lay the print face down on a clean, flat surface, cover it with a sheet of paper, and rest a few heavy books on top overnight. It'll be flat by morning — don't be tempted to iron it.
Handling
Hold prints by the edges. Fingerprints show on matte stock and can't be wiped off. Clean hands, or cotton gloves if you have them.
Where to hang
Center the print at eye level — roughly 145 cm from the floor to the middle of the piece. Above furniture, leave 20–30 cm between the top of the sofa or headboard and the bottom of the frame.
Keep prints out of direct, all-day sunlight. Archival inks last decades indoors, but nothing survives a south-facing window forever.
