Custom Hand-Painted Art for Interior Designers in London

We help London interior designers commission hand-painted artwork when a reference is right but its size, colours or finish need to change. Send the image for an assessment and price, or bring a room render if the artwork is still undecided.

01 / Your project brief

Buying custom paintings for a London interior project

For a London apartment where joinery, lighting and existing art already define the room, another attractive image is not enough. The purchase needs to resolve the finished dimensions, the amount of adaptation and who will handle framing before installation. This guide starts with those decisions.

Your artwork concerns and our approach
Your concernHow we can help
Decision 01

The reference is square; the wall needs a wide painting.

Keep the subject, reconsider the edges.We can assess extending the surrounding composition or choosing a deliberate crop. Simply stretching the image sideways would change the subject, so we confirm the new proportion with you before painting.
Decision 02

My client wants to know what the extra cost buys.

Compare the same specification.Ask for the selected image, visible dimensions, medium, texture and presentation to be identified in the quote. A smaller print, a rolled hand-painted canvas and a locally framed commission are different purchases.
Decision 03

The frame is already specified.

Let the frame opening determine the canvas.Please ask your framer for the required artwork dimensions and depth, rather than measuring only the outside of the moulding. We can then assess the painting against that specification.

02 / Shape the commission

Artwork decisions for your London interior

Turn a favourite reference into a workable painting

Start by marking what your client cannot lose: a face, a particular shape, a horizon or the balance between dark and light. A change from square to landscape may require new painting around the subject, not just a crop. We can discuss the adaptation while the price and size are still being decided.

Separate the painting budget from the installed total

For a London project using a local framer, compare two complete routes. One is our rolled canvas plus delivery, local stretching, frame and installation. The other is a stretched or framed painting plus its delivery and installation. A low canvas price alone does not tell you which route costs less.

Settle the handover before the installation date

The receiving address might be your studio, a warehouse, a framer or the finished property. Include its postcode and the party responsible for onward transport. For a large finished frame, ask the installer to check the route through the property before selecting that delivery option. We can discuss the quoted shipping arrangement once that information is available.

A different proportion needs a new composition

Planning example: adapting a square reference to a landscape canvas.

03 / Review the painted work

Approve the painted result, not the room render

A render is useful for scale and colour direction; it cannot demonstrate the brushwork that will arrive. For your client presentation, compare the revised flat reference with the actual completed canvas, then use closer views for surface decisions.

  • Confirm that the agreed crop retains the important subject.
  • Review the accent colour independently of the render’s room lighting.
  • Check the image dimensions against the final frame specification.

04 / Price and delivery

What to send for a London artwork quote

The image and an approximate size are enough to start. If the frame or receiving route is already fixed, include those details early so we can quote the relevant option rather than redo a price for the wrong presentation.

  • Reference image or room render
  • Preferred dimensions; frame opening if already selected
  • Quantity and desired painted finish
  • London delivery postcode, receiving party and required arrival date

Studio order & delivery terms

Made by hand
Painted directly on premium linen, with no printed base. Acrylic is standard; oil is available on request. Progress photos, videos and final photographs help you review the actual work.
One piece or a collection
Orders start at one painting, with quantity tiers from 6 and 21 pieces. Mixed designs count together. A sample is a separate single-piece order, priced independently and not credited against a later order.
Rolled, stretched or framed
Choose your image width and height. Suitable rolled work includes an additional 5 cm of blank canvas on every side for framing. Please mention extra allowance before production; heavy texture may need rigid presentation.
A complete delivery quote
Your quote sets out the artwork, presentation and delivery charges. We work with over 200 logistics partners to assess express or sea options. Most shipments use DDP, with exceptions where local customs rules require another arrangement; terms are confirmed in your quote.
Time for the actual process
Painting, drying, your approval, transport and any local framing need time before installation. A sample also needs its own production, delivery and review. Share your deadline so we can assess feasibility.
Payment and release
Payment is usually a 50% deposit, with the balance after final approval, before shipping. We suggest using reference images you own or have permission to reproduce.

05 / Before you order

Custom painting questions from London interior designers

Can you paint the placeholder artwork in my room render?

We can assess it. A small image in a render may not contain enough information to reproduce fine detail, so please send the original artwork reference if you have it. If you do not, we can help explore a new composition in the same design direction for your approval.

Can I compare your quote with a London artist or gallery?

Yes. Compare a similar size, medium, level of detail, frame and delivery scope. Our quote is for the specified hand-painted work; it should not be compared with the price of a collectible original on the assumption that provenance and resale value are equivalent.

What should my local framer receive from me?

Share the approved image dimensions, desired stretcher depth, frame choice and delivery format. Suitable rolled work includes our additional blank-canvas allowance; ask the framer whether they need a larger allowance before we start painting.

Can one sample settle the whole collection?

It can help you assess our painted quality and an agreed finish. It does not automatically approve every different composition or colour in a larger order. Keep a separate approved reference for each design you commission.
