Wall Art for Interior Designers: A Sourcing Guide

Designers don't have the problems regular art buyers have. You already know what the wall needs. Your problems are different: whether the piece that arrives matches the one you specified, whether the finish is consistent across six pieces in one install, and whether it shows up before the reveal. This page is about those problems.

What you can specify, exactly

Every piece is built the same way, which is the point: you can spec it sight unseen. Four solid wood finishes (White, Black, Natural Wood, Dark Wood), each 1 1/8 inches thick, identical profile across sizes, so a mixed-size install still reads as one system. Seven framed formats, the same on every image:

• Small 16.5" x 12.5" framed, 12" x 8" print
• Medium 22.5" x 16.5" framed, 18" x 12" print
• Large 31.5" x 22.5" framed, 27" x 18" print
• Extra Large 44.5" x 31.5" framed, 39" x 26" print
• Centerpiece 56.5" x 39.5" framed, 51" x 34" print
• Renaissance 70" x 49" framed, 63" x 42" print
• Masterpiece 85" x 60" framed, 75" x 50" print

Print Only is available in the same formats when the client has their own framer. The image runs edge to edge on a floating pedestal mount; the front is 99.9% UV-blocking acrylic, which matters in the bright rooms clients love and photographs without the reflections glass throws at your install shots.

Selling it to the client

Preview any piece on the client's actual wall in AR before presenting; it ends the "will it work there" conversation before it starts. For the portfolio story, the provenance is real: we work directly with the owners of the image archives, from Slim Aarons to the Bettmann Archive to contemporary names like Corey Wilson, and every piece ships with a certificate of authenticity your client keeps.

Timelines you can put in a schedule

Framed pieces are custom made by hand at our facilities in Oregon and Florida, ship free anywhere in the US, and arrive ready to hang with brackets already mounted; the groove system lets an installer slide pieces laterally for alignment, which makes grids fast. Everything carries a 10-year guarantee, so the install you photograph this year still looks like that in ten.

Where to start browsing for a client

For a calm brief, the Coastal collection. For personality, Icons. For the client who wants "something with a story," vintage leisure from Slim Aarons rarely misses. And for multi-piece walls, the layouts and exact five-piece spec are in our gallery wall guide.
