The poster
Paper, unframed, in five sizes. It is the cheapest way in and, for two of the five art styles, it is also the best surface we have.
There's one paper here, and there's a reason for that. Every unframed print goes onto 250 gsm uncoated off-white archival stock, at A4, A3, A2, 50x70 cm and 70x100 cm. No gloss option, no lighter budget stock, no choice to get wrong.
Uncoated matters more than the weight does. There is no shine on it at all, so it reads as drawing paper rather than as a photograph, and it takes a pencil line or a flat block of colour beautifully. Off-white rather than bright white means the paper has a faint warmth to it, which stops a white-heavy image looking clinical and stops a dark one looking like a screenshot.
What it suits
Line work, above everything. The blueprint and the line drawing are the two treatments built out of flat colour and clean edges, and a matte uncoated sheet is the surface they were made for. Put either onto something glossy and you get reflections across exactly the lines you wanted people to follow. The vintage poster style sits happily here too, because flat saturated colour on matte paper is what a real printed poster was.
What it suits less is a photograph you want to punch. A sharp, contrasty shot of an airframe against a hard blue sky has more in it than matte paper can give back, and that is the argument for the metal print.
Sizes, honestly
A4 and A3 are desk and shelf sizes, seen from a foot or two away, which is exactly where fine detail gets examined. A2 is the first size that'll hold a wall on its own. 50x70 cm and 70x100 cm are room-scale, and at that range they are far more forgiving of an imperfect source file than the small sizes are, because nobody looks at them from a foot away.
Your photograph decides which of the five you are actually offered. The site measures the file against the physical print size and will not sell you one that falls under the resolution floor, so the list you see is already filtered to what your image can carry. Turning plane photos into wall art explains how that is worked out.
Want it glazed and ready to hang instead? That is the framed print. The rest of the surfaces are on on the wall.
