Acrylic Frames

Acrylic frames are without doubt the most popular methoed of framing photos and images in 2010. Picture framing has always been a changing market and no more so than in 2010. The big trend at the moment are acrylic photo frames and for many reasons.

Acrylic frames are a spectacular modern trend and this is because the unique visual impact that they have on the image that they are displaying. Acrylic frames interact with light allowing a feel of movement. With most acrylic photo frames they are held to the wall with chrome fixings (standoffs) this gives the frame an extra dimension compared to a traditional picture frame.

So why are acrylic frames so popular at the moment? Acrylic frames have become a designer item but with an affordable price tag. They fit in with any decor of a home that is looking for a modern look. Acrylic frames now come in many different styles the most popular is know as the acrylic sandwich frame, this is where the artwork or image is sandwiched between two highly polished sheets of acrylic or perspex. The back panel of this style of frame can come in a huge range of colours and can be chosen to fit the colour scheme of any decor.

Many people are choosing to use acrylic frames in kitchens because highly polished work surfaces and high gloss kitchen cabinets are incredibly popular at the moment. The back panel of the acrylic frame can often be matched up to the colour of the kitchen cabinets therefore creating a perfect matching picture frame in the kitchen. Acrylic framed prints are also great for the kitchen because of the material that it is made from, they are incredibly durable and once fixed to the wall with chrome standoffs they are not in danger of been knocked from the wall.

When choosing  acrylic prints it is important to shop around as there are different styles and price can really vary. A great website that offers a choice of acrylic frames with different coloured back panels is www.theimagebox.co.uk.
