Colored picture frames
Colored picture frames in the interior design
Decorating with posters on the walls is an effective way to set the mood in your home. Whether it's an entire picture wall in the living room above your sofa or a single picture hanging in the kitchen, you can create a new expression in your interior with little effort by using colored frames for your posters.
Colored frames make a big difference to the motif when combined with the colors of the poster to create a unique color expression. Below we show some examples of how you can put together posters with colored frames.
If you want inspiration for building a picture wall, you can follow this guide .

Find the right color for your frame
Colored picture frames can give your posters a new lease of life if you feel like 'something new' needs to happen on the wall. The expression can change significantly when a color appears on the wall and the familiar decor is changed.
If you don't know where to start, it's a good idea to choose a frame in a color that is represented on your poster. This works quite well if it's not a color that takes up most of the poster - an example is Mt. Fuji above, where the frame is pink, like the bottom color of the motif.
You can also work in contrasts (more precisely: complementary contrasts). Colors reinforce each other when they are opposites.
How to get the look
The first tip is to find out which posters you want to use and what colors they have. Place your posters physically on the floor or visually online on a mood board. From here you can get an overview of what colors the frames should have to fit in with the expression. You can find all our colored frames here. In addition, you can put your own touch on the color by buying a pine frame, after which you can paint it in a desired color yourself. We have done this, for example, in a makeover, which you can find inspiration in here.
