Every print in our range comes in four formats. They're not just price tiers — each one changes how the image reads on the wall. Here's the honest difference between them.

Matte poster — £24.99

A single sheet of 200 gsm museum-quality matte paper, no frame. Smooth, non-reflective, and the cheapest way to get the image on the wall.

Choose it if: you frame things yourself, you like to swap prints around often, you're filling a gallery wall on a budget, or you're buying it as a gift and want the recipient to choose their own frame. Ships rolled in a tube.

Trade-off: it needs a frame to look finished, and off-the-shelf 40×60 cm frames aren't always cheap, so factor that in.

Hanging poster — £45

The same matte poster, but held top and bottom by two slim wooden battens with a cord to hang it. No glass, no bulky frame.

Choose it if: you want something lighter and more casual than a framed print — it suits a studio, a kitchen, a rented flat where you can't drill much, or a Scandi-leaning room. It reads as relaxed rather than formal.

Trade-off: the paper is exposed, so it's less protected than glazed options, and it has a slightly more informal look that won't suit every room.

Stretched canvas — £60

The image printed onto cotton-blend canvas and stretched over a 2 cm FSC-certified wooden frame. It arrives ready to hang, with no glass.

Choose it if: you want a soft, frameless, gallery look, or you're going large over a sofa or bed. Canvas has no reflections, so it works opposite a window where a glazed frame would glare. It also suits landscape and nature images particularly well — the texture flatters natural subjects.

Trade-off: the canvas weave adds a subtle texture, so it's less crisp than paper behind glass. For fine architectural detail, a framed print holds the sharpness better.

Wooden-framed poster — £65

The matte poster mounted in a dark pine frame behind shatterproof plexiglass, with a hanging kit. The most finished, most protected option.

Choose it if: you want a sharp, considered, gallery-style finish straight out of the box, you're building a wall of matched frames, or you want the print protected from dust and sun. It's the best format for architecture and city prints where the detail matters.

Trade-off: the glazing can reflect light, so avoid hanging it directly opposite a bright window. It's also the heaviest option.
