Looking back at the year’s highlights is a great reminder of the fantastic diversity of this job. We never quite know what the next framing challenge will be. Often the most interesting projects start with a phone call that begins something like “I don’t know if you can help, but..” Of course we do lots of ‘ordinary’ framing jobs, but a few of the more unusual projects do tend to stick in the mind..
