In modern decor, it’s common to mix canvas prints and framed prints. There’s a reason for that. Framed prints tie into the general decor of a room by connecting the color scheme with the frame. They also shift the mood of the photo or artwork with the type of frame chosen.
With a simple black border frame, the focus remains on the artwork or photo. But more stylized frames like contemporary or traditional, bring out the character of the photo. When choosing frames, the furniture and room decor are important to maintain cohesion.
In comparison, canvas prints provide a more versatile approach when decorating a wall. You can add them with much less thought since the frameless borders adapt to any style. The vibrant pops of color create new focal points that liven up the room you’re decorating.
Here are some important factors to consider when comparing the two:
Canvas Prints Framed Prints
Image printed is permanent
Canvas provides a different texture that adds color depth
Photos do not have a glare or reflection
Light in weight
Prints come in a glossy or matte finish
Can swap out many photos in a frame
Frames complement room decor
Photos can have a glare or reflection
Larger frames are heavy and can be difficult to transport
The bigger the image, the more expensive the frame
Metal Vs Canvas
Metal prints and canvas prints yield very different results due to the material the photos are printed on. High-definition photos printed on .45 inch thick metal panels have a sleek, clean look. These prints are also glass free and with rounded corners, making them resistant to breakage. Depending on the selected finish, metal prints have a metallic coating appearance. This is different from the softer material and more vibrant color on a canvas print.
Acrylic Vs Canvas
Acrylic prints and canvas prints differ in material, texture, and appearance. While canvas prints are printed directly onto the cotton or linen material, acrylic prints are printed onto photo paper. This print is then pressed between acrylic sheets or plexiglass. Both of these types of prints have vivid color, but a canvas print would look more similar in texture to something you’d see in a museum.
Art Print Vs Canvas
Art prints most notably differ in size, texture, thickness, and finish. Where a canvas print is printed on cotton or linen canvas, an art print is printed on cardstock. Our premium cardstock can either include a matte finish or Pearl Shimmer finish. Either option appears as a clear, and crisp image with vivid colors. The final major difference between a non framed art print and a canvas print is price, where the art print would be considerably less.
