How to Commission an Artist Through Creme Frech: A Step-by-Step Guide

Commissioning a piece of art allows you to bring a truly unique, handmade work into your home. Whether you’re looking for a bold statement piece or something subtle to blend with your home decor, Creme Frech can connect you with an artist who aligns with your vision. Here’s how you can commission a piece from one of our featured artists.

 

1. Get a Sense of the Style You Love

Before diving into a commission, it’s essential to have an idea of the kind of artwork you’re drawn to. Browsing the works available on our website can provide inspiration and help identify your preferences:

Texture and Depth: If you appreciate detailed textures and layers in art, take a look at the works of BAS Atelier or Arno Hoogland for sculptural reliefs that bring a tactile experience to your space.

Abstract Compositions: For something fresh and vibrant, explore the geometric compositions by Zyrko. His minimal works add a subtle touch of color to any setting.

Sculptural Pieces for Consoles and Shelves: Looking for art that doesn’t need wall space? Milena Kling and Andrei Clontea create mesmerizing sculptures perfect for tabletops and shelves.

 

2. Think About the Display Space

Where you plan to display the piece matters. Think about how a commissioned work will interact with the colors, textures, and layout of the room:

Size and Scale: Measure the space to ensure the artwork suits the scale of the room . A large wall piece can make a statement , while smaller works complement your existing decor or enhance a gallery wall.

Color Coordination: Consider the room's color palette. Are you looking to add a new accent color or match an existing hue, like that of your sofa or rug?  Take advantage of the opportunity to consult directly with an artist and let us know the specific hue you want to incorporate - many artists in our network can accommodate such requests.

 

3. Establish a Budget

Your budget will guide the commission process. Here’s what to consider:

Size and Cost: The dimensions of a piece are typically the primary cost-determining factor, with larger works requiring more materials and time. Set a budget that aligns with the size you envision.

Shipping Considerations: Depending on the artist’s location, as well as size and weight of the piece, shipping costs vary. We help you navigate these logistical details to ensure a smooth journey from creation through delivery.
