In the heart of Wynwood, Miami’s most dynamic art district, custom metal frames have become a defining element in contemporary art presentation.
Unlike standard framing options, custom metal frames are designed from the ground up for each artwork, allowing complete flexibility in size, finish, and visual impact.
At Frames and Stretchers, we create metal frames that are not just functional borders, but architectural design pieces that elevate the artwork itself.
Each frame is built to respond to the piece it holds—whether it is a photograph, a mixed-media composition, a print, or a collectible edition.
One of the strongest advantages of metal framing is its flexibility.
Every project can be tailored to the exact dimensions of the artwork, including:
Because each frame is made to order, proportions are carefully considered to maintain visual balance and harmony with the artwork.
This allows artists, galleries, and collectors in Wynwood and Miami to present works exactly as intended—without compromise.
Custom metal frames are defined by their clean, architectural aesthetic.
The design philosophy is simple: the frame should never compete with the artwork—it should enhance it.
Key design qualities include:
This makes metal framing especially effective for contemporary art, where simplicity and clarity are essential.
Each frame can be finished in a variety of tones and textures, allowing complete creative freedom.
Popular finishes include:

One of the key strengths of custom metal frames is their versatility.
They are suitable for a broad spectrum of contemporary and collectible works, including:
This adaptability makes them a preferred choice for galleries, collectors, and designers working across different artistic disciplines in Miami.

Each frame contributes to a cohesive visual experience where artwork and presentation work together seamlessly.
