Danger! Don’t buy anymore vintage skis and vintage ski posters until you have read this.

Before you buy anymore vintage skis and vintage ski posters for your ski chalet and ski lodge decor please take a look at my fun and vibrant and sometimes a bit crazy ski paintings. I’ve got colours to match every colour scheme you would want including black and white, neutrals and just plain crazy colors too.

If you are short on time drop me an email or call me on whats app and let me know what you want and I’ll dust away all these vintage skis posters ideas into the back closet and bring in some new vibrant energy to give your walls the uplift they would all love to have.

First take a look at my Top 30 ski prints and posters and if heaven forbid you have gone over to the dark side then in private take a look at the snowboard prints from the comfort and security of you closet.

If you want some more ideas then check out the interior design ideas below minus any vintage skis. But I do have my own take on vintage ski posters just in case you still hanging onto some element fo vintage for posterities sake.

Interior design ideas for ski lodges and ski chalets using Pete Caswell Art and Paintings designs.

Pete has worked on some fabulous interior design projects with clients in Europe and the USA. It all started with his ski prints, ski posters and original ski paintings which added a splash of colour and vibrancy to the traditional ski chalet and lodge decor of old skis and vintage ski posters.

While Pete loves some of the historic design ideas of the last century he is keen to work with interior designers to bring the best of his art into these modern inspiring buildings and make them sing a new song.

There are a few ideas that Pete has on his ski print and poster site but in recent years it has been easier to work directly with interior design clients to get the best results. Pete has so many ski paintings in many colours even black and whites or muted colours. Over the years he has taken some close up photographs of sections of paintings with bold colour schemes, fun textures or just crazy skiers and snowboarders. So once you have a few ideas its best to contact Pete direct.

Some projects have involved extra large prints and posters. Sometimes original ski paintings are re done with a twist and made to fit the space. Some clients have chosen their favourite paintings which have sold over the years and Pete has re painted them in the correct sizes to fit the space. For extra large ski prints and posters you need to contact Pete directly to custom order through another printer.

In recent years one of Pete’s loves has been taking sections from paintings and printing them onto materials for cushions, curtains and throws to really add a sense of fun and drama to a room. Sometimes just budget cushions from a print on design manufacturer Pete uses are great or sometimes for a higher quality, some special fabrics are ordered to print on and the cushions are made up to a custom order. It’s so much fun and the results can be dazzling with some of the amazing images Pete has in his ski art collection. Contact Pete to discus some ideas

A real favourite for him has been producing sets of custom cups and coasters to give a really great talking point and add to the skiing vibe. These are only done to order as there are just so many designs to choose from. Contact Pete

When you have finished the design off why not try out one of Pete’s super colorful ski art books for the coffee table.

Hope you have enjoyed looking through all the colours and crazy designs. If anything has inspired you give me a call or email and see if we can come together on a fun project to add some light and love to a ski chalet. If you are international then Whatsapp works well for me. If you are in the UK come and visit or stay over in Pete’s studio to get a feel for all the colours and vibes he creates in his work.
