FAQ for Collectors

What is Middle House?

Middle House is a boutique art consultancy that connects discerning collectors and interior designers with exceptional contemporary artists — through private, curated introductions designed to find the perfect artist match for your unique taste and vision.

How does the process work?

We begin with a personalized conversation to understand your aesthetic preferences, collecting goals, and interests. From there, we thoughtfully search for an artist whose work truly resonates with you, and facilitate a discreet, one-on-one introduction.

Is there a fee for collectors?

There is no upfront fee. Our compensation comes from commissions on successful placements and transactions, so our interests are aligned with finding the right artwork for you.

Can I request a specific medium or style?

Absolutely. Whether you’re looking for a particular medium, scale, color palette, or emotional tone, we tailor our artist recommendations precisely to your vision.

Do you facilitate custom commissions from artists?

Yes, we help collectors connect with artists interested in creating custom, commissioned works tailored specifically to your vision, space, and preferences. We guide you through the process from initial concept to completion, ensuring a seamless and personalized experience.

Will my identity be shared with the artist?

Never without your explicit permission. Discretion and confidentiality are cornerstones of our practice, ensuring all introductions happen with care and full consent.

Do you work with interior designers too?

Yes, we regularly collaborate with interior designers to source artworks that complement a space’s concept, mood, and materiality, creating seamless connections between art and environment.
