Hi, I'm Maxwell from Apartment Therapy,

and welcome to my super framing solution that will solve all your framing doubts and problems. Over the years I've framed many photos, prints, drawings and objects and I've settled on a favorite framing setup, which I use every time. It's a clean, classic, gallery ready style that looks great and can hang in any room. It's also perfect for gallery walls.

Just 3 steps and you'll see
my recommended frame:

  1. Is it digital or physical?
  2. What's the size?
  3. White, Black, or Natural?

Frame a Digital Print

Print and frame your art or photo in a timeless style:

  • Floated and shadowboxed
  • With a tight 1" border to the frame
  • Mounted on a 4-Ply white paper mat
  • Dry mounted to keep it smooth & flat
  • 99% UV Acrylic which is very protective and lightweight
  • Hung with classic wire (for frames over 30in I recommend corner hangers)

Frame Mailed In Art

Showcase and preserve your piece in a classic style:

  • Floated and shadowboxed
  • With a tight 1" border to the frame
  • Mounted on a 4-Ply white paper mat
  • Hinge mounted without a lift to preserve its natural wave and texture
  • 99% UV Acrylic which is very protective and lightweight
  • Hung with classic wire (for frames over 30in I recommend corner hangers)

The Perfect Frame Color

On the next page you'll choose your art, size, and frame color, which all work great together.

  • You can safely go with White for all your art
  • Opt for Black if your work is dark or vintage
  • Choose Natural if your work is sunny, bright, beachy and you want to mix it up.
