THOMAS RAINSFORD LIMITED

Tom was raised in a creative environment, his mother a potter and his father an artist, both inspiring his interest in the art world. He became captivated with how design, colour, and material had such a major impact on the presentation of artwork. Realising these decisions were crucial in making a picture frame work seamless, not only with the artwork itself but also the interior in which it was being displayed. Alongside the strong influences of designers such as Charles and Ray Eames, Tom soon paved his own career in picture framing becoming a pioneer of innovative crafted frames, created from his own designs. These ideas continue to evolve to this day. The studio is based within an artisan ran mews in Kemp Town where exhibitions and events are held throughout the year. Thomas Rainsford Art Gallery And Framers has now been established since 2010.
