The coolest new custome frames on the market

PRISMA Frames, hands down, are the coolest new frames on the market and they are completely custom with a huge array of options.  These options include color, pattern, thickness and frame depth.  Here are a few of the frame corner samples below that Visualarts currently has in our showroom:

Here are a few pieces we recently framed for Sheila Cole, a local Minneapolis designer and owner of Shecole Inc. (www.shecole.com) for her own home.

Here is the art we framed and corner details of each of the PRISMA Frames:

We love the shadow interplay that was created by using the clear frame above

We love the saturated color we can achieve with the PRISMA Frames and the modern look.

These frames do have infinite design possibilities and a designer can be extremely creative with their concepts for commercial and residential client's projects.  Please visit our showroom to see these samples in person and we can assist you in framing your next great design project.

Spring Color Story

Design is Everywhere!

Artistic design is everywhere! Char’s daughter designed this swimsuit for her swimwear company and is featured in this month’s Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue. It is also featured online. The Male model is Chris Paul from the LA Clippers.

Here are some other examples that are on trend:

Black and white landscape photography

Black and white macro photo of a vintage pocket watch - Photo taken by ClawzSkunk

Black and White Trees in reverse by Norman Silverstone

Venus by Aubrey Beardsley

He was unknown in 1892. By the time of his death in 1898, a mere six years, he had broken through the Victorian unconscious and hurled England into the 20th century. Many of his drawings first made their appearance in books or magazines with relatively limited subscription. Despite this, his erotic, humorous, and haunting drawings came to be popular and have been for more than a hundred years.

A great example can also be found in Goldfrap's Video below:

Congrats to ASI

At the Beginning of the year Visualarts Ltd.. assisted selection and placement for Perham's beautiful new hospital Perham Memorial Hospital and Home in conjunction with Jennifer Paist from Horty Elving. Together we selected artist Tanya Garvis to create custom colored glass enamel infused copper tiles to enhance importance of the donor wall.

ASI did all of the signage in the project and have featured the donor wall in their overall case study for the PMHH project, please see the link that is featured on ASI's website. The link describes the great collaborative process that went into the design. The project also received 1^st runner up for the “Best of ASI” at their national sales conference in Miami.

Thanks to ASI for the nod!
