Design notes: color, texture & finish
Color psychology for athletic focus
Cool hues (blue/teal) are associated with calm, clarity, and endurance—great for form work, breath control, and long sets. Accents keep the scene lively without visual noise.
Finish options change the mood
- Fine‑Art Poster: sleek, contemporary, works well in minimal spaces or renters’ rooms.
- Stretched Canvas: matte, tactile, gallery look; ready to hang out of the box.
- Floating‑Frame Canvas: the shadow gap adds architectural polish; pick Brown/Oak for warmth, White for crispness, Black for contrast, Gold for luxe.
Three styling formulas for home gyms & rec rooms
Modern Minimal (clean & cool)
Pair a White floating frame with pale walls and light wood flooring; add a simple bench and a rubber mat. Keep the palette limited to blues and neutrals for calm focus.
Warm Contrast (inviting & energetic)
Choose an Oak or Brown frame to introduce warmth. Layer a natural fiber rug and matte black hardware for a balanced, athletic feel.
Luxe Studio (bold & polished)
Opt for a Gold floating frame and indirect lighting. A single metallic accent (sconce or equipment rack) repeats the tone without overwhelming the space.
Size & scale: getting the proportions right
For eye‑level viewing, many designers center art at ~57–60 inches from the floor. Above equipment or a console, leave a few inches of breathing room and fill ~60–75% of the width beneath for a cohesive silhouette.
Where it fits best
- Cardio wall opposite mirrors to provide a forward “horizon.”
- Recreation room above a sofa or foosball table for a dynamic focal point.
- Pool house corridor to echo the aquatic theme in a refined way.
- Boutique studio lobby or hallway to reinforce brand energy.
Care & longevity
- Dust gently with a soft, dry cloth.
- Avoid prolonged direct sunlight; indirect light keeps colors true.
- Posters ship rolled; let them relax before framing for a flat, crisp fit.
