The Plant Painting Panel System by Artisan Moss can transform any space into a serene oasis. Handcrafted moss walls blend the tranquility of nature with contemporary design, creating captivating focal points that evoke a sense of peace and rejuvenation. Each moss wall is designed using sustainably harvested, real moss that has been carefully preserved to retain its natural color, texture, and beauty. The result is an impressive botanical masterpiece that brings the outdoors inside, without the need for maintenance or watering.
Categories
Available in a variety of sizes, shapes, and configurations, these moss walls can be customized to suit any space and style. Whether you're looking to add a touch of greenery to a residential living room, a corporate office, or a hospitality environment, the moss walls offer a versatile and sustainable solution.
Applications
These moss walls can be customized for any space, whether residential or commercial, enriching and enlivening the environment. The preserved moss creations can be hung as single pieces of art or designed with custom panels incorporating a variety of natural materials such as mosses, ferns, natural branches and rocks, reclaimed wood, and other botanical elements. Everything in the custom art is naturally preserved, making it effortless to care for and maintain.
Features
All plants used are 100% preserved real plants, never synthetic, and are preserved with a UV-resistant solution. Additionally, all moss and plant materials used are sustainably sourced in the United States, and every aspect of production is conducted in the United States. The wooden frames are handmade entirely out of locally reclaimed lumber.
The moss coverage materials are 100% sustainably grown natural moss plants that have been preserved instead of dried. Our preservation process leaves the moss pliable, soft, springy, and lush, giving it a similar feel to a soft fabric carpet. The moss grows in round, oval, and irregular shapes that rise off the canvas with a dramatic profile, creating a visually stunning and texturally interesting display.
Installation
Panel Installation
Panels can come with a nice raw edge and a short moss overhang. This overhang can be trimmed for appearance after framing or installation to reveal however much frame or edging material is desired. This edge is ideal if the moss panels are to be inset into existing architecture or if the architecture will be built up around them.
Bas-Relief or sculpting
The production team can create iconography, such as logos or designs that rise off the canvas. The raised element can be quite complex and finished "flat" or "contoured" in itself.
Frameless
Occasionally, a piece would serve best without framing at all. We can finish a bezel or square "edge" to our panels so that, if applied directly to the wall, they appear to be moss shapes "grown in" to the location. This treatment leaves the edges delicate to chipping and should only be placed in locations out of reach.
