Poster snap frames keep your posters well-presented and protected from damage. They can be used both indoors and outdoors and are an integral part of your business’ branding. Choosing the right size poster frame for your poster is important, but the selection process does not stop there. The colour of the poster snap frame you choose can have a powerful impact on the effectiveness of your poster. Read on as we guide you through choosing the right colour poster snap frame for your content.

Brand Colours

When selecting the right colour frame, a safe option is to choose one that matches your business’ branding. There’s a good chance you will have designed your posters to compliment this so they will always match the frame. It is particularly effective to choose an accent colour for your frame, rather than making everything the same shade. The more you incorporate your branding into your business, the higher the recognition level you will build for your customers. This increases their loyalty to your brand and therefore encourages them to return on another occasion. Therefore, opting for your brand colours is beneficial for your sales figures too.

Neutral Colours

If you are unsure of which colour to choose, neutral is the way to go. Black poster snap frames compliment just about every poster and will not look out of place on any coloured wall. Aluminium finishes are also professional and sleek looking and may compliment your branding and interiors better than black poster snap frames in some cases. Neutral colours are unobtrusive and therefore do not distract from the message or images on display, keeping the focus on the content you are sharing. This means they will always compliment your posters and as your content changes you will not need to invest in new frames.

Clashing Colours

Sometimes you really need to make your poster pop and the way to do this is to choose a colour that clashes with the content you are displaying. This makes your signage really eye-catching, giving a bold look that just cannot be achieved using a black poster snap frame. To achieve a high contrast, use a bright or dark colour with a lighter coloured poster and vice versa. Don’t be afraid to use a stronger colour than the rest of your interiors, the idea is to encourage the customer to spend a longer period of time looking at your poster than they do at your wall!

Strong Colours

Similarly to clashing colours, bold coloured frames leave a lasting impression. They are eye-catching enough to draw customers to your poster and can be selected in a colour that will really stand out on your wall. Again, try to contrast the colour of the frame to the wall it is mounted on. If it blends in too much, the colour of the frame will have no impact. There;s no sense using a yellow frame if the wall behind it is already bright yellow. Instead, a red frame will create a strong contrast bringing more attention to your poster.

Overall, the colour of the snap frame you choose can have a big impact on the effectiveness of the poster displayed within it. It’s all about choosing a colour that will stand out and leave a lasting impression. Red 17 stock a wide range of poster snap frames in a variety of different sizes.
