Before the alarms go off for everyone else, this is already happening — bright, clean surf, one wave breaking in a perfect arc, a couple of early risers making the most of it. Shot from above on a Friday morning at Umina, this is proof the best part of the day comes first.

Print Sizes

Please note: the size you select (XS, Small, Medium, Large, or Gallery) refers to the print size — the actual dimensions of your printed image — not the finished, framed size. Once mounted with our mat and frame moulding, the external footprint of the piece will be larger than the print size in every direction. See the External Frame Sizes section below to find the true outer dimensions for wall planning.

We offer five print sizes. XS (297 × 420mm, A3 equivalent) is perfect for hallways, gallery walls, desks, or gifting. Small (420 × 594mm, A2 equivalent) makes a strong single statement above a console table or desk. Medium (500 × 700mm) is a custom size chosen for how well it suits most feature walls, sitting neatly between Small and Large. Large (594 × 841mm, A1 equivalent) works as a focal point above a sofa, bed, or sideboard. Gallery (841 × 1189mm, A0 equivalent) is our boldest, most oversized option, suited to high-ceiling or open-plan spaces. Dimensions are shown as width × height for portrait orientation — flip the figures for landscape.

External Frame Sizes

Always use these measurements (not the print size) when planning your wall space, as they reflect the true outer footprint of the finished piece including the mat and frame moulding.

In our Onyx and Coral frames, external sizes are: XS 423 × 546mm, Small 546 × 720mm, Medium 626 × 826mm, Large 720 × 967mm, and Gallery 967 × 1315mm.

Our Driftwood frame uses a slightly wider moulding, so its external sizes run 2mm larger on each dimension: XS 425 × 548mm, Small 548 × 722mm, Medium 628 × 828mm, Large 722 × 969mm, and Gallery 969 × 1317mm.

As every piece is individually handcrafted, please allow a tolerance of 2–5mm across all frame and mat measurements. As a rough guide, leave at least 10–15cm of clear wall space on each side of the frame when planning placement.

Every print starts life on premium matt paper — a flat, non-reflective surface chosen for its sharp detail and rich colour saturation, giving true-to-life results with none of the glare of a glossy finish. Prints are produced using archival pigment inks for rich, long-lasting colour that resists fading over time.

Each frame is solid timber, handcrafted to order in Australia. Choose from Onyx — a solid, black satin finish for a bold contemporary look; Coral — a clean, classic white finish; or Driftwood — a natural, rustic timber with warm, organic grain.

Every frame is finished with a premium 50mm bevel-cut mat border in classic white, adding depth and a clean gallery-style border around your print. The mat is acid-free for archival quality, holding your print securely in place with a 3mm overlap on each edge.

Glazing is UV Acrylic as standard on every frame — optically clear, lighter than glass, and more shatter-resistant, with better protection against fading over time. Behind the print, a 5mm acid-free, pH-neutral foam backing board keeps everything flat and protected for the long term.

Every piece arrives fully assembled with hanging hardware pre-installed, ready to hang straight out of the box.

As each frame is individually handcrafted to order, please allow a small tolerance of 2–5mm on all measurements.
