Modern & Minimalist Framing: Clean Lines for Your Art
For a clean look that keeps the focus entirely on your art, our modern framing styles like floater frames and sandwich mounts offer the perfect balance of simplicity and sophistication.
Sandwich framing is a perfect choice for artworks with uneven edges, like this papyrus piece. By placing the art between two pieces of glass, the wall behind becomes part of the display, creating a beautiful floating effect.
This video shows the elegant result of sandwich framing. The artwork appears to float between two panes of glass, which is an excellent way to showcase raw paper edges for a clean and minimal look.
Float framing gives botanical prints a modern, airy feel. Here, we've mounted the artwork on a foam board so it sits above the base mat, creating a subtle shadow and a sense of depth, all protected behind museum glass.
Framing a 15-foot masterpiece requires both precision and a minimalist touch. We used a veneer wooden floater frame to encase this oversized artwork, ensuring the frame complemented the art without overwhelming it.
For a client who wanted a statement piece, we crafted this custom L-shaped frame. The seamless corner design creates a continuous, sleek line that draws attention to the art while maintaining a quiet, modern elegance.
This beautiful sailing-themed artwork is perfectly complemented by a floater frame. This style creates a gap between the canvas and the frame, making the artwork appear to be suspended within its border for a sophisticated, gallery-style look.
We love how these beautiful brown metal frames with simple white mats make these Parisian artworks look even more attractive. This classic combination is perfect for creating a timeless and sophisticated gallery wall.

About Modern & Minimalist Styles
With our floater frames, the exact width of the gap between your canvas and the frame makes all the difference. We use professional precision tools to ensure a uniform gap, which allows your artwork to appear as if it is suspended in mid-air.
When we talk about a minimalist aesthetic, we mean frames that recede, not ones that compete with the art. Our floater frames, for instance, utilize a subtle L-shaped profile to create a shadow line, giving your canvas that suspended, modern look. For paper prints, we often suggest slim metal frames or a sandwich mount. Sandwich framing is particularly effective for art with raw, deckled edges. By suspending the piece between two sheets of glass, you let the wall color interact with the art, adding depth without the clutter of a mat.
We steer clear of cheap plastic or polystyrene. In Mumbai’s humid climate, the quality of your materials is the difference between a frame that lasts a decade and one that causes foxing within a year. We use solid wood or anodized aluminum for our modern profiles, ensuring structural integrity that holds up over time. Because we operate as consultants, our process always starts with a look at your space and your artwork. We use digital previews to show you exactly how the frame will look before we cut a single piece of wood, eliminating the guesswork that often leads to disappointment in standard frame shops.
