Size Recommendation
Primary size: 60 × 20 inches — my strongest recommendation. It gives the work presence without becoming overwhelming.
Secondary: 48 × 16 inches — excellent for guest rooms, smaller living spaces, and narrower walls.
Statement size: 72 × 24 inches — appropriate for larger hospitality spaces, long corridors, resort lobbies, or above a substantial sofa.
I would not go smaller than 36 × 12 inches. At that scale, some of the subtle atmospheric transitions and the faint shoreline lose their impact.
For your hospitality positioning, I'd probably list 60 × 20 as the signature presentation, with 48 × 16 and 72 × 24 as alternatives.
Frame Recommendation
Perdido is only recommending Fine Art Pigment Print under Acrylic Glass, therefore there is no need to frame.
Recommended indoor lighting
The important part with acrylic
Because you're considering frameless acrylic, watch reflections carefully. Acrylic can look spectacular under controlled lighting but can also become a mirror if the fixture is positioned incorrectly.
I would not light it straight-on. A slightly off-axis wash will allow the acrylic to retain its luminous depth while minimizing reflected hotspots.
Intensity
Keep it relatively subdued—approximately 100–200 lux at the artwork in a hospitality environment.
Perdido doesn't need to be bright to command attention. In fact, slightly under-lighting it may make it more compelling, because the viewer has to approach it and allow their eyes to discover the faint shoreline.
For a luxury hotel or resort, I'd envision the surrounding room at perhaps 150 lux, with Perdido receiving a gentle 200 lux accent. It becomes something the guest notices rather than something that announces itself.
In short: warm-neutral, very high CRI, soft controlled accent lighting, and absolutely no direct reflection across the acrylic.
That would preserve the quality you're after: the light appears to come from within the artwork rather than from the fixture above it.
Design Tip
The acrylic presentation is not just acceptable—it may be the ideal presentation for Perdido.
What works particularly well is how the artwork picks up the actual pool and ocean colors without becoming literal. It feels integrated into the architecture rather than decorating it.
I also like the absence of a frame. The clean acrylic edge makes the image feel almost like a window into another place, which is a wonderful quality for this particular work.
And this is exactly why your hospitality focus makes sense. Perdido doesn't merely look good on a wall; it creates an atmosphere for the space.
I would absolutely include an acrylic version in the hospitality presentation.
