Play with Scale and Balance

Use our small frames to play with scale and balance with your framed artwork. Create a visual composition that adds depth, dimension, and a unique sense of flow to your space by incorporating them between and around larger pieces. Trust your instincts as they reflect your taste. Embrace your creative choices, live with them for a while, and make adjustments if needed.

Blend Artwork and Objects 

Try a creative curation approach to placement by blending non-traditionally hung items with artwork. Use this to convey a narrative you want to tell or use the room’s purpose as a theme. 

Experiment with combinations of paintings, prints, photography, antique utensils, grandma's cuckoo clock, textiles, sculptures, or anything you see fit. Vary shapes and sizes for a composition that reflects your sensibility and integrates with the proportions of the space. Our small frames provide a modern contrast to vintage items and are designed to easily complement various shapes. Embrace your own decisions on how to blend different elements and allow your imagination to run. 

Combining mixed materials and forms while disregarding traditional boundaries allows you to create something that is truly your own, reflecting your unique style and story. Whether it's a literal interpretation of the room's theme or another story you'd like to convey, take the opportunity to do what fits for you and your space. 

Add Them to Your Gallery Wall

If you already have, or would like to create, a gallery wall, our small frames are the perfect choice to add a touch of style and charm. We initially designed these for our own gallery wall after coming up short-handed in finding tasteful small pieces that weren't from big-box stores. For a more modern vibe, keep it eclectic but cohesive and use more natural placement with less planning. We have found that a naturally came-together look feels more contemporary and personal.

With their versatile size and simple design, our framed pieces add an extra touch of style and personality, while also becoming part of your story by supporting a small art business with a non-mass production process.

On A Shelf 

Whether you have a collection of books, knick-knacks, or plants, our frames can add that extra touch of charm and character.

Our square frame, which is used for the Petit Derrière Square and some of our original paintings, stands perfectly upright and can be easily placed alongside your books or other items.Experiment with placement and spacing to create a visually layered look. 

Incorporating our frames is an easy way to add personality and style, don't be afraid to have fun with it. 

Utilize Small Spaces

From narrow hallway walls to tiny powder rooms and windowsills, there's no shortage of ways to incorporate our frames into your home. Living in New York City, we understand the challenge of finding decor for often-overlooked or awkward spaces. However, these areas can be the perfect spot for an unexpected and fun piece of art. Our frames are intentionally designed to be small, making them easy to style in nooks and crannies. Additionally, plaster is resistant to moisture, so you can confidently display them in your bathroom without worry.

Don't let limited space hold you back - we can help you make the most out of any small area.
