What Osner Gallery does for interior designers

Most suppliers do one part of the job. We do all of it under one roof, so there is one conversation and one timeline for the art in your project. It is the same service our art services clients receive, set up for how designers work.

Art chosen or created to brief

Choose from our prints and original paintings, or have Martin Osner or Samantha Lee Osner create new work for the space, at any scale.

A preview on your client's walls

Send us photographs of the rooms and we show the proposed work at its real size on the walls, so your client can decide with confidence.

Printed and framed in our own workshop

Prints are made to the size the room needs and framed in our own framing workshop, in the same building as the gallery.

Delivered and installed

Our team delivers the work and hangs it, so the room is finished when we leave.

Projects anywhere

We talk projects through on Zoom with designers anywhere in the world, and ship the finished work door to door.

Preferred pricing for the trade

Interior designers receive preferred pricing, agreed with you project by project.

How a project works

From your brief to an installed room

Tell us about the space, the style, the budget and the deadline. We come back with a proposal your client can see on their own walls, and once it is approved we take care of everything else.

From approval to installation normally takes 10 to 15 days, depending on the size of the project. Newly commissioned paintings take longer, and we agree that timescale with you at the start.
