For every art print we offer different sizes & materials. We allow you to pick your favorite size and material among the following product individualization options:

  • Acrylic glass print (with real glass coating): The print on acrylic glass, often referenced as a plexiglass print, changes the artwork into brilliant wall decoration. Above all, the acrylic art print offers a viable alternative option to aluminium or canvas prints. The artwork is being printed with the help of state-of-the-art UV direct print technology.
  • Aluminium dibond (metal print): This is a metal print manufactured on aluminium dibond material with a true depth effect. The non-reflective surface structure make a contemporary impression. This print on Aluminum Dibond is the most popular entry-level product and is a stylish way to showcase fine art reproductions, as it puts all of the viewer’s attention on the image.

Canvas Prints have the advantage of being relatively low in weight. That means, it is quite simple to hang up your Canvas print without extra wall-mounts. Because of thata canvas print is suitable for any kind of wall.
  • Printed poster (canvas material): Our poster is a UV printed sheet of cotton canvas with a nice texture on the surface.
