Photos without frames and in frames

All ways of hanging by type of photo cards can be grouped into 2 main categories:

  • photos within;
  • photos without frames.

Sometimes the frame emphasizes or complements the interior of the room. For example, a thick massive wood frame fits perfectly into a classic living room. Incorrectly chosen frames may distort the image in the photo or simply do not fit the environment and any interior details.

With a successful placement without frames, the pictures look very natural, lively, attractive and original. They have no restraints, which allows them to perfectly fit into the decor of the room.

Frame selection

The mood of the entire collage or decorative wall decoration will depend on the choice of a suitable photo frame. If the interior style is restrained and does not allow the emergence of chaos, then you need to choose monophonic photo frames. Moreover, their thickness can be completely different - from a thin metal frame to a thick wooden frame, whose sides can be wider than the photo itself.

In a room that is decorated with bright colors, you need to use frames of light shades of small thickness. It can be silver, gold, pastel colors, milky shades that will not overload the interior and only emphasize the photo.

The interior in neutral colors allows the use of black frames. However, when choosing a model, you need to make sure that they do not look too gloomy. A skillful choice will help to make the right accent in the room.
