Artrahmen Services at a Glance
Artrahmen offers a wide selection of framing and frame work, all of which are created in our own workshop. Each frame is individually made and tailored to the motif.
Custom-made Frames: Precise Production for Individual Image Effects
Custom-made frames form the basis of many framings. The selection of wood profiles ranges from narrow natural tones to striking, deep strips for expressive works. Aluminum profiles are particularly suitable for modern motifs and photographs.
Each frame is chosen to emphasize the motif, not to overshadow it. The proportions between picture and frame are precisely matched to create a balanced overall picture.
Framing: Design, Protection, and Calm Presentation
A framing consists of many individual work steps. The picture is cleaned, aligned, smoothed, and provided with a suitable back protection. This is followed by dust-free framing, which ensures that the picture remains protected in the long term.
For sensitive motifs such as watercolors, drawings, or prints, conservation materials are used that are free of acids and harmful additives. This keeps the motif stable and colorfast.
Stretcher Frames and Canvas Stretching: Stable Base for Canvas Pictures
Canvas pictures require even tension to maintain their shape. Artrahmen manufactures stretcher frames in matching profiles that offer stability and support. Large formats receive reinforced constructions so that they remain straight in the long term.
Shadow Gap Frames: Modern Framing for Canvas Work
Shadow gap frames create a light, open, and modern effect. The surrounding gap between picture and frame emphasizes the canvas and makes it appear to float. This framing is particularly popular for abstract works or color-intensive motifs, as are often found in Kreuzberg apartments.
Object Frames: Present Three-Dimensional Mementos in a Protected Manner
Objects tell stories and need a frame that respects their structure. In the workshop, individual object frames are created that have sufficient depth and securely fix the object. This preserves the shape and makes the motif appear clear and present.
Many Kreuzberg customers bring collector’s items, small works of art, or mementos that are shown to their best advantage in such a frame.
Handicraft Frames: Careful Presentation of Textile Works
Textile works of art must be treated with special care. Artrahmen aligns them smoothly without creating tension and selects frame profiles that support both structure and color. These frames are suitable for modern textile art as well as for traditional works.
Large Formats and Special Sizes: Frames for Impressive Dimensions
Large formats require stable frame constructions. Artrahmen manufactures profiles that appear light despite their size and offer high stability at the same time. Special sizes can be easily realized.
Custom-made Passe-Partouts: Depth and Clarity for the Motif
Passe-partouts create calm and space. Artrahmen manufactures them in numerous colors and strengths. Particularly popular variants in Kreuzberg are soft cream tones, warm earth tones, and subtle gray tones.
Gallery Rails and Flexible Hanging Systems
Gallery rails are ideal for people who want to regularly redesign their walls. They enable flexible placement of the pictures without additional drilling. The workshop advises on systems that are both stable and inconspicuous.
Glazing in Various Quality Levels
The choice of glass significantly influences the effect of a picture.
Anti-reflective Glass
Suitable for rooms with strong light, as reflections are significantly reduced.
Non Reflection Glass
Creates a matte surface and a particularly calm perception.
Museum Glass
Museum glass offers an almost invisible surface and very high UV protection.
Optium® Acrylic
Optium® Acrylic is an anti-reflective acrylic glass variant that is extremely light and break-resistant. It is ideal for large formats or rooms in which weight and safety play an important role. The surface offers impressive optical clarity and high protection.
