Frequently asked questions about Renting or Buying Art from us.

 Q. What happens with the first Art consultation.

A. First we will discuss your requirements over the phone or via email.

We will then arrange a convenient time to see you. The average on site consultation will take 20-30 minutes.

Your Art consultant will do a survey of your offices and take some digital photos.

The consultant will then show you a range of Art in real life, on computer and from our catalogues.

We will endeavor  to finalize your order on the first visit or use ArtSitu PhotomontageTM to show you work on your walls digitally. We may make subsequent visits until we find the best solution for you.
