Stair Step Floater

Definition

A Stair Step Floater is an L-shaped floater frame designed with a step at the junction of the sidewall and bottom flange. This step creates a recessed area where artwork, panels, or canvas boards appear to "float" within the frame, giving a modern and dimensional presentation.

Applications

• Floating canvas paintings or art panels without edge-to-edge contact with the frame.
• Providing a shadow gap for enhanced visual depth and emphasis on the artwork.
• Used in contemporary galleries, museums, and residential displays for a clean, minimalist aesthetic.

Benefits

• Protects edges of artwork while showcasing it prominently.
• Creates the illusion that the art is suspended within the frame.
• Compatible with various artwork thicknesses by adjusting the step and Float Size On Floater Frames.
