Giclée printing is among the most accurate printing technologies available in the world today. It employs a method by which ink is sprayed on the print surface.(The word Giclée is derived from the French word gicler which means spraying or squirting). Giclée prints are known for their rich colours and precision printing. Giclée printing is also versatile in that you can get prints on different kinds of surfaces. 

All these aspects make it especially fitting for artworks to adorn interior spaces. Not everyone may be able to afford an original work of art. But a Giclée print comes close to the original’s clarity and richness of colours. 

Here then are ways in which Giclée prints enhance the beauty of your interiors. 

Print on different media for different spaces 

Giclée printing can be done on multiple types of media or papers. This makes Giclée prints suited for adorning different spaces. For the same print material may not suit all kinds of spaces. 

For example, a huge canvas print may be ideal for a large wall in the living room. But for a smaller print on the mantelpiece, print materials which you can frame could be a better option. Different print materials have different textures as well. This makes some of them more ideal for certain styles of artwork. 

Let the prints add colours to you spaces 

Giclée prints yield good colour reproduction. This is possible because the printing methodology brings a wider colour palette compared with conventional printing. In traditional methods, the colours from the original are approximated due to limitations in the colours available. 

But in giclée, true-to-original colours are possible. This results not just in vibrant pictures, it also gives pictures with great details.  

For in many images,  the fine details are made possible with subtle variations in shades. Transitions from one shade or colour to another often mark out the backdrop from an element in the foreground. Without a wide colour palette, such transitions get blurred, resulting in a general lack of depth.  

This is a key issue especially with prints for interiors. These prints are often viewed from a distance, unlike in a museum where you are bound to stand rather close to the artwork. And a  good depth of image is important to enjoy an artwork from a distance. 

There is another reason why right colour reproduction is important. The colour of your wall paint is often considered while choosing pictures to hang from the wall. You might choose an image online based on its colour. Only, the reproduction on the print ends up being poor and it would clash with the wall paint. 

Also, certain colours are particularly well suited for certain spaces. For instance, in a study room, it’s best to avoid images with loud colours that may distract you. Images with subtle or ‘soft’ colours are often better-suited. 

But with poor quality printing, you may end up with a print with garish colours even if the original image had softer hues. 

Prints enjoyable even at a distance 

It was mentioned before that in a typical home, distance is often a key factor in enjoying an artwork. The floor area, the number and types of furniture all define how far from an artwork on a wall a person is at. One way in which Giclée printing ensures one enjoys the work from different distances is with good colour reproduction. 

Rich colours and the attendant depth enable this. 

However, another factor helps in this regard too- and that is the precision with which a print is made. A key reason for this precision is the digital nature of the printing. Many conventional printing methods demand a lot of human interventions which in turn gives rise to possibilities of error. The digital aspect of Giclée eliminates this problem, thereby bringing you prints with high precision. This also gives the image a superior depth which you cannot get from regular prints. And that helps you enjoy the artworks even from a distance. 

Eco-friendly

In an era when environmental concerns are at the forefront of many minds, Giclée printing is fittingly eco-friendly. Compared to traditional printing methods, it uses considerably lesser volume of ink. This in turn means that a lesser amount of ink needs to be manufactured, which means lesser waste products from such manufacturing. Not just that, Giclée printers consume less electricity compared to traditional peers and also emit less carbon. in a typical hom

The ravages of global warming are very much real, as evidenced by the drastic weather and environmental changes around the world. A substantial change requires concerted efforts by the world’s nations and industries that are largely responsible for the problem. But that’s not to say that individual actions are without meaning. Every bit matters, as they say. And choosing Giclée prints for your interiors can help in that regard.
