The Final Choice: Understanding Our Print Materials

The Final Choice: Understanding Our Print Materials

Choosing an art print is a personal journey, and we believe every detail matters. We offer our legendary prints on three unique materials: poster paper, Foamex, and Dibond. Each material provides a distinct look and feel, and we want to help you make the perfect choice for your home. It's a critical decision that affects the entire aesthetic of your final piece, so let's break down the differences.

 

The Classic Choice: Our Poster Paper

 

Our poster paper is for those who love the classic, timeless feel of a traditional art print. We use a high-quality paper with a smooth, matte finish that makes colours look rich and vibrant. This option gives you the freedom to choose your own frame and mount, allowing you to create a truly bespoke look. It’s an incredibly versatile choice and is our most popular option for a gallery wall, where you want to mix and match different frames and styles.

When to Choose Poster Paper:

  • You want a traditional, framed look.

  • You enjoy the process of choosing a custom frame.

  • You want a versatile print that can be easily changed or replaced.

  • You are building a gallery wall and need a lightweight, flexible option.

 

The Modern Alternative: Our Foamex

 

For those who prefer a clean, minimalist aesthetic, our Foamex prints are the perfect choice. Your chosen image is mounted onto a lightweight, rigid PVC foam board that creates a sleek, frameless piece of art. This material is incredibly light and easy to hang, making it an excellent option for a gallery wall where you want to avoid heavy frames. It provides a contemporary, high-end look that is both stylish and incredibly practical.

When to Choose Foamex:

  • You want a modern, frameless look.

  • You are looking for a lightweight option that is easy to hang.

  • You want a print with a clean, matte finish that won't have reflections.

  • You are a renter and need a non-damaging hanging solution.

 

The Premium Option: Our Dibond

 

Our Dibond prints are the ultimate choice for a truly premium, gallery-quality piece. This material is a composite panel made from two thin sheets of aluminium bonded to a solid core. The result is a print that is incredibly strong, durable, and resistant to scratches and moisture. It has a beautiful, sleek finish that elevates your print to a piece of professional art. We believe this is the best material for a large, statement piece that you want to be the focal point of a room.

When to Choose Dibond:

  • You want a durable, long-lasting piece of art.

  • You are looking for a professional, gallery-quality finish.

  • You want to create a bold, modern statement with a single large print.

  • You are looking for a high-end investment piece.
