framaukset

Framaukset is a Finnish term used to describe frame assemblies or the act of framing across several technical domains. In architecture, carpentry, and construction, framaukset refers to the set of components that form a frame around an opening or structural element, such as windows and doors, or to the framing of a structure itself. Materials commonly used include wood, metal, and PVC, and framing is typically joined with butt joints or mitred corners, reinforced with screws, nails, brackets, and sealants. Proper framaukset address alignment, rigidity, and energy efficiency, and may be designed to accommodate insulation, weatherproofing, and load demands.

In photography and film, framaukset denotes the framing of a shot—the boundaries defined by the camera's view and the composition of elements within the frame. Decisions about framing influence subject emphasis, balance, depth, and mood, and are a core part of visual storytelling. In publishing and graphic design, framaukset can describe the deliberate cropping and layout of content within a page or screen, including margins, gutters, and safe areas for printing or display devices.

The term is most commonly used in Finnish technical discourse, with English equivalents including 'frame' or 'framing' depending on context. While the underlying concept is consistent—the idea of defining a boundary around a space or image—the practical specifics vary by field, from carpentry joints to photographic composition to page design.
