Design Services
Gamma's certified picture framers and design staff can recommend design techniques and suggest color coordination to make picture framing itself a work of art.
While our principal focus in professional picture framing is to prevent the artwork from deteriorating over time, our staff will help create a presentation that is unique, that compliments your personality, and enhances your home or office.
Designer Frames
Gamma's extensive selection of moldings are often used in combination with a fillet, a narrow molding inlaid inside the mat, to create a truly unique frame that will add depth and color to custom framed art. The fillet, corinated with the frame molding, can be used to provide a multi-dimensional look.
Matting Combinations
Functionally, picture matting provides a spacer to protect art from direct contact with the glass or plexiglass.
Aesthetically, mats create design possibilities that enhance art. Gamma's mat board selection comes in hundreds of colors, textures, and appearances. Learn More... Carefully chosen mats will enhance the art, while providing a transition to the room's decor. Fabric mats can be used to add texture to art. Mats covered in silk or smooth lined achieve elegance where decor is more formal. Two or more mats provide depth, width, and color to framed art; they often off-set flatness, creating a three-dimensional look.
Shadow Boxes / Display Cases
Gamma's experience with three-dimensional objects is extensive. We encase everything from WWII military medals, sport jerseys, baby shoes, vacation souvenirs to china dolls and childhood moments, artifacts and collectables. Shadow box frames can be very simple or they can incorporate rich fabrics and woods for a superbly elegant effect. Learn More... Herloom plates, spoon collections, coin collections, medals and antique pistols are examples of items that Gamma has assembled in shadow box frames. Larger items, such as dolls or an autographed football require display cases.
Gamma's designers can determine the best way to display and protect just about any object in a shadow box frame.
