What We Do
Welcome to Americanflat, where our mission is to redefine how you experience art in your living space. We specialize in producing stylish, affordable, and exclusively curated wall art designed by some of the most impressive contemporary artists of today. The Origins of Americanflat: Our story begins with Giorgio Piccoli, the Founder and President of Americanflat. Upon moving to New York City, Piccoli faced frustration and disappointment while attempting to decorate his small apartment with art. Confronted with exorbitant prices, he recognized the need for a brand that caters to art lovers, not just investors. This pivotal moment led to the creation of Americanflat—a brand born out of a desire to democratize art and make it accessible to everyone. Our Community of Artists: At Americanflat, we foster a vibrant community of over 150 artists who contribute their creativity to bring the freshest designs to the market. By partnering with artists from around the world, we provide you with a diverse range of styles and options. Every purchase you make supports independent artists, as they receive a portion of each order, ensuring the continuous flourishing of artistic talent. Defying Tradition: As an outsider to the art world, Piccoli had a unique perspective that allowed him to challenge the traditional gallery system. Americanflat's wall art and home décor are meticulously hand-selected, catering to individuals who share a passion for artistic expression. We believe in creating an experience that goes beyond mere decoration; our curated collections are a testament to the art lover in you. Join Us on this Artistic Journey: From all of us at Americanflat, we express our gratitude for exploring our artists and collections. Whether you're looking to transform your living space or find the perfect gift, we invite you to discover the beauty and creativity that our brand brings to your world. Elevate your surroundings with Americanflat!!
