STEAL THIS FRAME

The six-figure David Smith painting may be out of our league, but the frame is another story. So lovely, so simple and so easy to execute as a little D.I.Y. ourselves. The clever design is a reproduction of a mid-20th Century frame by Le Corbusier, which brings an even more beautiful picture to mind of art dropping unexpected shadows on perfect white walls.
