About
Original art, created to brief.
A Montreal studio making art for rooms designers care about.
Acrylic exists for the spaces that come alive with real artwork: lobbies, suites, restaurants, residences—and for the designers who are only satisfied with the best.
We work to brief. Send us the room, the palette, the mood, the budget, and we craft original work to match: real paint on real canvas, paced to your install schedule. The art is by named artists, on consignment to us. We earn only when you approve the work.
One piece for a residence. Ten for a restaurant. Ten thousand for a hospitality rollout. Same care: design, curation, production, and install, from first brief to final wall.
That model lets designers do something their industry has slowly forgotten: treat artwork as part of the design, not a problem to solve at the end. Your vision is the work. We’re in service of it.

Guaranteed to suit
You see everything before you owe anything: sample crops, scaled mock-ups, full-resolution proofs. Edits are open-ended. We revise until the room agrees.
Once a piece ships, it stays on file. We make it easy to order extra copies, replacements, or matching work for sister properties—same dimensions, same colour.
What we make
Real paint.
Real surface.
We make three kinds of artwork: prints, embellished prints, and original paintings. Originals are our specialty: real acrylic on real canvas, using a palette knife and impasto where indicated. The result: a surface you can read from the doorway.
It’s a method we’ve spent years refining. Originals at this fidelity, at this pace, aren’t available anywhere else.
