Photo Print Curtain by Bauke Knottnerus

01_04.09.09_PhotoCurtain.jpgThis amazing curtain by Bauke Knottnerus, a Dutch designer, could be a wonderful room divider. We love the idea of printing photos at a large scale on fabric. This is a great way to showcase your own photography at home or business.

We came across this curtain on emmas designblogg. This particular photo works great in this space. The warm tonalities and the continuation of the wood floor in the picture is very creative. The lighting also seems to match. We could see the curtain opening up to a room with the same set up.

This could also work well in a bathroom as a shower curtain. We are not sure if there are any issues with moisture and inks used in this type of printing process, but it could be a great solution when looking for something different.

agree with above comment.
i think it could be cool, maybe with a forest print or a tree in a pasture or something.
this one with the wood floor, couch and tv is a bit disorienting to me...and kind of drab.

I think the intent of the image printed on the canvas was to be a little humorous while also giving the appearance of space. This idea does have so many other possibilities though.

Been looking at doing a wall mural based on Degas' Ballet Reheasal- this would be perfect, but it doesn't appear to actually be commercially available.
