Floating frames are a type of picture frame that creates the illusion of the artwork or photo "floating" within the frame. This design typically features a clear space between the artwork and the frame edges, allowing the background to show through. Floating frames can enhance the visual appeal of the piece by drawing attention to its edges and creating a modern, minimalist look. These frames are commonly used for various types of artwork, including canvas paintings, photographs, and prints. They come in various materials, such as wood and metal, and can be found in different sizes to accommodate different artworks.
