The Fresco 32: a 6K matte monitor for artists, by artists
A 32-inch 6K matte display — and a serious Apple Studio Display alternative for the people who live between the eye and the screen.
Today we're introducing the Fresco 32: a reference-grade, color-accurate monitor built for photographers, retouchers, filmmakers and designers. 20.4 million pixels coaxed into stillness on a 32-inch 6K panel that holds light the way oil holds pigment — soft, exact, undisturbed.
If you've been comparing an Apple Studio Display, an LG UltraFine 5K, or a Pro Display XDR for your MacBook Pro or Mac Studio, this is the one that was tuned, panel by panel, for your work.
Why look past the obvious
The 5K and 6K monitor field is crowded — Apple Studio Display, Apple Pro Display XDR, LG UltraFine 5K and 6K, Dell UltraSharp 6K, ASUS ProArt, EIZO, BenQ and the MSI Prestige PS341WU all make a case. The Fresco 32 answers them with a higher native resolution than a standard 5120 × 2880 5K Retina panel, an anti-glare matte finish, and a one-cable USB-C workflow — at a price that makes it a genuine Pro Display XDR alternative rather than a compromise.
Most resolution, by far
A 32-inch 6K display tuned to pull extreme dynamic range out of every frame. The numbers, written down:
- 500 nits — sustained full-screen brightness, held flat across the whole panel, not a peak in the centre.
- 1500 : 1 — native contrast, deep blacks held through edges and corners.
- 218 ppi — true Retina-class density, sharper than a 27-inch 5K monitor.
- 1.07 billion colours — a true 10-bit monitor, pre-calibrated to 99% sRGB and 98% DCI-P3.
Six things worth looking at
- 32-inch 6K matte display. 20.4 million pixels at 218 PPI — a high-resolution monitor that outresolves 5K.
- True 10-bit colour. Over a billion shades, a DCI-P3 monitor calibrated out of the box.
- Anti-glare matte finish. A multi-layer, entirely matte coating that drinks light instead of reflecting it.
- One-cable workflow. A USB-C monitor with 100W power delivery, 6K video and a USB hub over a single port.
- HDR up to 500 nits. Held flat across the whole panel.
- Hand-finished anodised chassis. A single block of aluminium, milled and brushed in soft warmth.
A color-accurate monitor for every discipline
The Fresco 32 holds calibration through colour grades, retouches, edits and long looks:
- Photo editing & retouching — a farbgenau, P3 wide-gamut monitor for photographers, so the print you deliver and the picture on screen agree on every pixel.
- Video editing, film & VFX — HDR preview at 500 nits with reference modes for Rec. 709, DCI-P3 and Rec. 2020, switchable from one key. A true monitor for color grading.
- Graphic design & illustration — 218 PPI renders type and vectors with letterpress crispness; macOS treats it as scalable native Retina.
- Architecture & CAD — 6016 × 3384 fits a full set of plans, sections and a tool palette without zooming or compromise.
Built for Mac — and everything else
The ideal external monitor for MacBook Pro, MacBook Air, Mac Studio, Mac mini, iMac and iPad Pro: USB-C with up to 100W power delivery charges your laptop over the same cable that carries 6K. For Windows and Linux, HDMI 2.1 and DisplayPort 1.4 with DSC. PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X and Nintendo Switch, too. One screen, every desk.
