System and Method for Displaying a Canvas at a Corner
A corner frame for a wall corner is disclosed. The frame can comprise a plurality of frames, one or more canvases mounted to the frames, and one or more mounts at the back surface of the frames. Each frame can be attached together side-by-side such that each of the frames are attached together at each of one or more folds. A method of displaying a canvas for an inner corner of a wall is also disclosed. The method comprises the steps attaching the canvas to a corner frame, and mounting the corner frame to the wall. The corner frame can comprise a plurality of frames, each together, side by side, and one or more mounts.
This disclosure relates to a system and method for displaying a canvas at a corner. For centuries, people use wooden canvas to display arts and paintings. The most common orientation of wooden canvas is a flat rectangular platform, which is usually attached to a flat wall and displays art in a flat manner. Over the years, the
art has evolved but the orientation of how art in wooden canvas are displayed stays the same. Wooden canvases are limited to being displayed on flat walls. Thus, canvases are not usually installed at the inner corner of the walls leaving inner wall corners empty. Providing a different orientation on how a canvas can be displayed can add more interest on an empty corner. This can also allow artist to be more creative in making art, such as 3-dimensional (3-D) arts suitable for inner wall corners. Further, giving flexibility for a canvas to be installed on either a flat wall or corner gives artists additional ways to be creative. As such it would be useful to have a system and method for displaying a canvas for inner corners of the wall.
SUMMARYA corner frame for a wall corner is disclosed. The frame can comprise a plurality of frames, one or more canvases mounted to the frames, and one or more mounts at the back surface of the frames. Each frame can be attached together side-by-side such that each of the frames are attached together at each of one or more folds.
A method of displaying a canvas for an inner corner of a wall is also disclosed. The method comprises the steps attaching the canvas to a corner frame, and mounting the corner frame to the wall.
