Fine art prints
Choosing a size
Every photograph comes in four sizes. Here they are on the same wall, with three simple guidelines to choose yours.
Room view
Compare the sizes
Same wall, same viewpoint: corner sofa, Acrylic glass, black Floater frame, centre of the artwork 1.50 m above the floor. Artwork on the wall: Bridge sunlights. Room photo: Kam Idris (Unsplash).
Three guidelines
Above furniture
Aim for about two thirds of its width, frame included.
- Furniture 70 cm wide
- Small
- Furniture 90 cm wide
- Medium
- Furniture 1.40 m wide
- Large
- 1.80 m wide or more
- Extra large
At eye level
Hang the centre of the artwork about 1.50 m above the floor. Above furniture, leave 20 to 30 cm between the furniture and the bottom of the frame.
Viewing distance
The further away you stand, the larger the size can be. In brackets, the approximate distance from the wall.
- Hallway, entrance (at least 1 m)
- Small
- Bedroom, study (at least 1.5 m)
- Medium
- Living room, seen from the sofa (at least 2 m)
- Large
- Large living room, open-plan (at least 3 m)
- Extra large
All dimensions
Sizes follow the proportions of each photograph. Print dimensions in centimetres; a frame makes them larger. For a portrait photograph they are reversed (30 × 45 cm, for instance).

The Classic frame, with a mount, is available for paper prints up to Large in 3:2 and 4:3, and up to Medium for square and panoramic formats. Larger sizes on request.
