A Guide To Panoramic Canvas Prints
People are always looking for ways to enhance their home, or work, environments and a common consideration of that is adornment of their wall space! Most homes will have something hanging on their walls in many rooms – it may be reproductions of classic works of art, quirky abstract pictures or, more commonly, photographs of family, friends or occasions.
And, whilst photographs can look great wall-mounted in formal frames, there is another way to display your favourite images whatever they may be – printed canvases! Canvas printing is becoming a more popular choice for people – modern technology allows fantastic reproduction of any of your photographs or pictures and the added ‘texture’ a canvas display offers can elevate any scene! Here are some aspects of panoramic canvas prints for you to consider:
Panoramic Printing
You can create beautiful and dramatic wall art with panoramic printing – from a simple rectangle print to a grand sweeping display of a single canvas, to a series of canvases offering a wide vista across a wall. The first consideration is the content – what subject do you want to create for your panoramic display – it is important to choose the right image that will best lend itself to this sort of striking display!
One of the most popular, and obvious, choices is a landscape – a beautiful countryside scene, or a dramatic mountainous terrain will impress and be a feature in any room. Landscape scenes can encapsulate many aspects in the one frame – rich colours of fields, trees, perhaps a waterfall, beach, or spectacular rock formations and valleys, all provide inspirational and spectacular displays on panoramic canvas prints. Others may prefer a more urban display – consider a skyline shot – perhaps a city scene or a simple sunset are other possibilities for stunning canvas wall art.
Location
When choosing the photographic content, consider which room you are going to place your display in – family holiday shots in your lounge provide constant reminders of your special occasions, whilst happy scenes with a personal interest may be appropriate in a bedroom. An important consideration is the photograph itself – whatever subject matter you choose, ensure that the photograph is of high-quality – remember, panoramic canvas prints are heavily enlarged, so it is important that the chosen photograph is clear and has concise definition with no ‘grainy blurring’!
Room Balance
It is important that you consider the other aesthetic aspects and features in your room – the colours and textures, the general décor, and even the furniture! It is important that the canvas will complement the rest of the room and vice-versa!
Perhaps experiment with different filters to alter the colour tones, brightness, and warmth of the photograph to ensure you obtain a balance between your centrepiece panoramic canvas and the other features in the room. Another consideration is the exact placement of your large panoramic canvas within your chosen room – ensure it fits with the placements of any furniture or other decorations in the room and that all the different elements either match or complement each other.
Impact
Consider how best to display your panoramic canvas – you want your canvas wall art to be the centre attraction in your room, so think of how best for it to make an impact on people entering that space. You can be creative with the different options you have available to you – consider the canvas thickness, size, and dimensions, and the different finishing elements you can include. You can customise it with meaningful text – or you may want to split your panoramic image over a number of smaller individual canvases and present them in a line across your wall creating a gallery effect?
Summary
Panoramic canvas printing does not need to be expensive – it is a great, and affordable, way to dramatically enhance any wall space in your home. Speak with a professional print company that is experienced in producing printed canvases – not only will they produce the images for your fabulous wall art, but they can advise you in the best type of images that favourably lend themselves to such a display and help with the canvas design.
