Which Metal Print Size Should You Choose?
Think about where the print will be displayed before choosing the dimensions. The same photograph can have a very different visual impact at different sizes.
Small Metal Prints
Smaller formats are useful for bedside displays, office walls, shelves, gallery walls and collections of multiple photographs.
Medium Metal Prints
Medium formats provide a good balance between image detail and wall coverage. They work well for family photographs, landscapes and everyday wall art.
Large Metal Prints
Larger dimensions are ideal when the photograph is intended to become a focal point or statement piece in a room.
Choose the Right Shape for Your Photograph
Your image composition should help determine the dimensions and orientation of your metal print.
Landscape Orientation
Landscape formats work particularly well for scenic photography, travel images, family groups and wide compositions.
Portrait Orientation
Portrait-oriented prints are well suited to people, pets, architectural subjects and vertically composed photographs.
How to Choose the Right Metal Print Dimensions
There is no single best size for every photograph. Consider the wall, the image composition and how close viewers will normally be to the finished print.
- Measure the available wall area before ordering.
- Consider the viewing distance from the print.
- Match the print orientation to your photograph.
- Use larger dimensions when the print is intended to become the main focal point.
- For gallery walls, consider how multiple sizes will work together as a composition.
