How a couple turned two years of travel into a stunning colour‑gradient gallery wall with Framky.
After two years on a world trip, Philipp and Vanessa returned with drives full of images and one big dream: turn those memories into a statement wall.
We wanted to preserve our memories on a wall and show the different colours of our beautiful world.
Philipp & Vanessa
Instead of a random collage, they envisioned a left‑to‑right colour gradient – cool ocean blues gradually melting into sunset reds.
If you look closely, you'll spot a colour transition from blue to red.

Thousands of photos can overwhelm anyone. Philipp first reduced the archive to a print‑worthy shortlist, then picked the images that best matched each hue while representing milestone moments of the journey.
I pre‑selected files fit for print, then chose those that fit our gradient idea and captured our travel time perfectly.

Framky's website suggested several layouts, all visible in a live preview so the couple could see the final look before ordering. Matte prints, matching frames, and tool‑free adhesive hangers delivered the quality and convenience they wanted.
The print and frame quality plus the hassle‑free hanging system were exactly what we were looking for. Friends already want a Framky wall of their own!
The gallery now dominates their living room, drawing smiles every single day.
We're super happy and look at the photo wall every day with great joy.
Vanessa
“An upgrade for every room :-) Our Framky wall enhances our living room. Looking at it brings back memories of our trip around the world. In short: we enjoy the great quality of the pictures every day and can recommend Framky without reservation. I'd love to do it again! 😍”
