Posters hallway
The corridor as seen by our artists: even series, vertical formats and subjects that read as you pass. Corridor wall decor is looked at from close up, and while walking. Every print is made to order in our Fayence workshop, on 270 g semi-matte anti-glare photo paper.
Choosing your hallway poster
Which hallway poster should you choose?
A hallway poster is thought of as a series rather than a single piece, and several registers lend themselves well to it:
- Black and white photography: marked contrast, readable even in a line.
- Line illustration: a simple subject, repeated across several identical sizes.
- Typography and quotations: a line of text that paces the walk.
- Maps and plans: cities, countries, constellations, to follow with the eye as you go.
- Botany and nature: foliage, plant plates, a discreet series.
The filters on the left narrow things down by dominant colour, by style and by mood.
Where should you hang a hallway wall poster?
- Narrow hallway: small sizes in a line, never a single large size facing you.
- Wide hallway: two larger posters, spaced out, to breathe.
- Entrance: the first poster of the series, the one that sets the tone.
- Staircase: a vertical run that follows the climb of the steps.
- Landing: a single size, different from the rest of the series, to mark a pause.
Tip: in a hallway the eye moves fast. A series of three or four posters in the same size reads better than an isolated large size.
Which size for a hallway poster?
- 21x30 or 30x40 for a series aligned at eye level.
- 50x70 for wide hallways, in two or three spaced pieces.
- The 100x140 polyptych does not suit a narrow hallway: it needs room to step back.
- The spacing counts as much as the size: better to tighten the frames than the sizes themselves.
Poster, print or picture: what is the difference?
All three words mean the same thing here: a printed image that you hang on the wall. We say poster because we print on photo paper, never on canvas. The same image is also available on a metal plate, in several sizes.
- With frame: black, white or light oak, assembled and ready to hang.
- Without frame: the sheet alone, to slide into the frame you already have.
