We went to visit Ann-Marie Williamson @a_m_williamson at her studio in Stratford last week. We’ve been working with her for a while now, framing her incredible textile pieces and it was great to see the work in the environment where it all comes together.

It’s great to visits an artists studio and seeing the materials, process and small details up close, it gives a completely different appreciation for the finished pieces.

Kyran in the workshop adding contrasting splines to a walnut tray. A small detail, but one that adds both strength and character to the piece.

Cut, joined and finished in our East London workshop.

A week of working on frames being put together.

Work mounted, frames made, glass cut — now onto assembly. Jaki finishing each piece and sealing the backs, ready for collection.

A fun way to bring a set of polaroid strips together.

Another beautifully designed @floating_bstrd poster. This one was kept simple with an off white hand painted frame. Mounted edge to edge with fillets to set the artwork back off the glass.

Let the colours in the poster do the talking

We’re looking for a full-time technician to join the FRMD team.

A mix of workshop and client-facing — involved from start to finish.

Some experience required, alongside a sharp eye and willingness to learn.

Drop us a message if it sounds like you or share if you know someone.

The start of the week is for making.

From Monday to Wednesday we’ve got the workshop to ourselves — milling, joining, finishing. Every frame is custom in-house.

From Thursday - Saturday we open for appointments at the front, while the workshop continues behind the scenes. You can book an in store consultation online. Lino in bio

Wishing everyone a nice long weekend. We’ll be closed today and Monday, and fully booked tomorrow — with availability opening up again next week.

Back in the workshop, Kyran finishing a custom oak frame. Stained down with a darker mahogany to shift the tone and pull out the grain.

Milled, joined and finished in-house.

We love a colour wash frame and mount at FRMD.

For this small children’s drawing, we milled a custom profile, rounding the inner and outer corners and then matched the painted frame to the mount.

A normal day at FRMD, condensed into 15 seconds.

Skilled hands at the front mounting and assembling.
Experienced makers at the back crafting and finishing each frame. All hand made in East London

Not all corners need to be right angles.

We love when clients are open to trying something different!

It doesn’t have to be on paper!

We recently framed a small woven bowl in a deep oak frame. We can frame (almost) anything, it’s a nice way to break up artwork on your wall from 2D paper / canvas.
