Almost every frame we make is custom.

That doesn't always mean creating something elaborate or unusual. More often, it means working through a series of choices and adjustments until the frame is right for the artwork in front of us.

For most projects, the materials and options we have ready to hand in the workshop give us everything we need.

Occasionally, the right solution needs to be created from the ground up. That's when custom framing becomes truly bespoke.

We might mill a frame from raw timber to get the proportions right, develop a custom-painted finish for an artwork, or create textures, profiles and details specifically for a single project. Rather than asking the artwork to fit an existing design, we develop the frame specifically for the artwork.

The result isn't something more elaborate for its own sake. It's a framing solution that couldn't have been achieved any other way.

The most successful custom framing rarely draws attention to itself.

Whether the solution is quietly understated or more expressive, the aim is the same: to create a frame that feels right for the artwork. When the proportions are right, the
materials feel considered and the details have been carefully resolved, the frame and artwork begin to work together as a single piece.

Whether you have an original artwork, limited edition print, photograph, degree or certificate, or an idea that's still taking shape, we'd love to help.

Come and see us and we'll take a look together.
