Albufeira Marina, Algarve, Portugal - architectural poster
Designed by architect Professor Tomás Taveira, the distinctive Apartamentos Turísticos da Orada form a colourful holiday oasis just to the west of the Albufeira Marina in the Algarve, Portugal. The apartments stand out strongly with their striking mediterranean colours, ample interiors, green spaces and magnificent swimming pools, all within only 100 metres of the Atlantic Ocean.

BORDER OR NO BORDER
It’s your choice, no border (framed edge-to-edge) or a white border surrounding the artwork designed to enhance the presentation by providing a built-in matte effect. This border will slightly reduce the visible area of your chosen design, while the overall dimensions of the 240gsm matte fine art paper will remain unchanged.
PRINTING
We produce our art prints on luxurious gallery-quality 240 gsm textured art paper using archival inks that won't fade over time resulting, in a superior art print with sharp detail, vivid colour and unparalleled durability.
Fine art giclée (inkjet) printing requires professional archival Epson Ultra Chrome Pro 12-colour printers, and fade-free inks. Calibrated Eizo monitors display accurately represent how your print will appear in real life while custom ICC profiles guarantee the best results always roll off the printer.
We print on semi-glossy paper of premium quality. The thick paper on which your poster is printed on is master's edition, archival museum-quality paper known for providing extra durability for your posters. These papers are free of OBA (optical brightener additives) yet offer maximum brilliance and colour density while ensuring that the natural white colour of the paper remains consistent under different lighting conditions.
CANVAS
Another popular way to display your favourite images is with custom canvas prints. A canvas poster is a generated by an inkjet printer upon canvas, which is then wrapped onto a wood frame. With our high-quality canvas prints, you can add a wow factor to your space. We print onto a blend of cotton and polyester canvas because of the superior image quality and colours. This printed canvas is then clear-laminated to ensure that your chosen poster is protected from dirt and dust for years to come. You can also customize your canvas poster and upgrade the look by utilizing our professional framing service.
FOAM BOARD
Have your choice of image turned into a beautiful foam board poster. The smooth texture intensifies the image's natural look and the 5mm white foam core gives you a poster that is strong, rigid, yet amazingly lightweight and very easy to hang on or take off your wall. A convenient wall-mounting kit is included.
FRAMING
Your fine art poster will be framed to order by our in-house team of master framers using gallery-quality materials throughout. The end result - a beautiful framed artwork built to last a lifetime that exudes quality and craftsmanship.
Many companies sell frames that contain acids within the materials or use glazes that are not UV-resistant. You can rest easy knowing the frame will protect your poster, using Australian FSC-certified woods and 100% acid-free materials. This is why our prints have an 80+ lifespan, staying in mint condition for years with minimum colour fade.
Available in black and white or natural wood, our frames are created from sustainably sourced Australian timber (we avoid MDF or any other reconstituted materials). All of the backing boards and mat boards we use are acid-free. Each frame is hand-made with the corners carefully glued, sealed and sanded. The end result - a beautiful framed artwork ready to be hung on your wall, delivered right to your door and designed to last a lifetime.
GLAZING
An important choice - glass or acrylic? We have chosen to use acrylic material because it is lightweight, shatterproof and UV-protecting. It also protects your print from damage during transport. Glass is breakable, not ideal for shipping or using in situations where it could hurt someone if it were to smash. Acrylic is crystal-clear, shatter-proof and lightweight, avoids fading or discolouring from exposure to sunlight and ideal when safety is paramount.
HANGING
The poster is ready-to-hang as the poster is delivered within the frame. It is ready to be hung directly on the wall. We include hanging hardware with every order, making it easy to hang the frame in both horizontal and vertical orientations.
PACKAGING
Unframed - Your fine art print is placed between sheets of acid free tissue paper before being rolled in kraft paper and placed in a heavy-duty protective mailing tube. Tissue paper is placed at the ends to prevent movement during transit.
Framed - Your poster is installed within an elegant timber frame which is reinforced with corners and wrapping. It is then packed in a box with strong edges to protect the frames. I-beams are used in addition, to give the package additional sturdiness and for multi-item orders (max 3 frames in one package). Every poster and frame is shipped in robust packaging, ensuring it arrives in pristine condition.
