Kitchen
Kitchen wall art in long, narrow formats - canvas prints sized for the awkward runs of wall a kitchen tends to leave: the strip above a worktop or splashback, the space over a doorway, the narrow panel beside a tall unit or fridge.
The collection leans towards warm, appetising subjects - botanical and herb studies, still life and produce, rustic vintage illustration and simple typography - in palettes that sit well against wood, tile and painted cabinetry. Horizontal pieces suit the wall above a run of units, while tall vertical prints work in the gaps between them.
Every piece is made to order in a range of sizes, as a stretched canvas or in a floating or classic frame in black, white, oak, walnut or gold, and arrives ready to hang.
Kitchen wall art - frequently asked questions
Sizing, hanging height and the questions we are asked most.
What size wall art fits a kitchen?
Smaller than you would use elsewhere. Kitchens have short runs of free wall between cupboards, so 8"x24" (20x60cm) and 12"x36" (30x90cm) do most of the work - horizontally above a worktop or doorway, vertically in the gap beside a tall unit or fridge. Save 16"x48" (40x120cm) for a dining wall or an open-plan kitchen with a clear stretch of wall.
Can you hang canvas art in a kitchen?
Yes, with one sensible precaution: keep it away from the area directly above a hob or sink, where steam and cooking grease collect. Anywhere else in a kitchen is fine. Dust a canvas occasionally with a dry, soft cloth - never a damp one - and it will hold up as well as it would in any other room.
What subjects suit kitchen wall art?
Botanical and herb studies, still life and produce, vintage food illustration, and simple typography all sit well in a kitchen - they suit the room's purpose without being literal about it. Warm palettes of clay, ochre and sage work particularly well against wood, tile and painted cabinetry.
Where can you put art in a kitchen with no free wall?
Look above the doorway, on the end panel of a run of units, in the gap beside a fridge or tall larder unit, and on the short wall above a splashback where a narrow horizontal piece fits under the cupboards. These are all spaces an 8"x24" (20x60cm) canvas will fill that a standard frame simply will not.
What frame works best in a kitchen?
A stretched canvas or a wood or white frame. Kitchens already carry a lot of hard edges and reflective surfaces, so an unglazed canvas keeps the wall softer and avoids glare from downlights and windows. Black frames work in a kitchen with black handles or a dark worktop to answer them; gold rarely suits the room.

Lovely picture, great quality and supernatural delivered. Would definitely recommend
Beautiful picture for a narrow wall. The colors are prettier in person.
We received our print in a timely manner. Upon unpacking, we noticed a bulge in the canvas and some lines in the canvas and imprint from the wood that goes across in the back. I reached out and the company sent another one that came perfect. It is now displayed in our foyer and looks great!
Beautiful, just as I wanted, excellent framing and a swift delivery
The perfect statement piece. The graceful heron, soft neutral palette, and walnut floating frame brought warmth and serenity to our dining room. It feels elegant, timeless, and collected rather than trendy. The quality is exceptional and the artwork looks even more beautiful in person than online. I love it so much, that I’m going to order another!
I’m over the moon with my beautiful Sunset wall art. It finishes off my hallway and has received so many compliments from visitors.
Second piece bought now and both are great. Exactly as described and very well packaged for transit.
I love the quality and styling of the print, I was unsure about buying something so big without seeing it but I am very happy with the product. The colours are true to the image and the effect with the floating frame is perfect. I would buy again from Atelier, I trust the product and delivery was quick considering it was a specific design, size and frame.
I bought the 30 x 90 canvas with a floating canvas frame in the colour wood and I couldn't be happier with it. Great quality, well packaged. Highly recommend.
This artwork brought just the right look to my entry that I was trying to achieve. It’s beautiful and calming and in a beautiful quality frame.
Better than presented online. We love it. Super high quality framing and hardware.
