Reasons To Consider A Custom Mural Design

By Debra Baker


Nowadays, people are looking for numerous ways to stand out from the crowd and express their individuality and creativity. This could be on a personal level or on a business level. Being visually captivating can garner all the right kinds of attention, and a custom mural design could be just the way to do it.

Active and sportswear brands like Converse have been known to use custom murals in order to reach out to their youthful target market. These designs can be found on the walls of stores all over the world in order to attract customers. This is a really good business move, but it is also providing a really good outlet for artists to step forward and get their work seen.

A custom design could work wonders in a business space. It should be thought of as part of the decor and will become an important component to the overall look of the space. Choosing colors and images wisely is important, as these elements can and will affect the mood of the location, which will influence both employees and clientele alike.

Artwork can be used in this way to attract attention before a client even comes through your doors. Consider the effect of a mural in a public area, on a wall facing a main road. A bright and intriguing design will spark anyone's curiosity to find out more about the space or building. A great design will invite the viewer to step inside.

You can use a mural at home, as well. While many people might think at first that this type of thing is only great for children's bedrooms and play areas, a well-executed mural could bring the finishing touch to your personal space. Make it a conversation piece in a social area of the home like the living room or dining room. Perhaps you could get something done on the ceiling?

It's always best to let children have some say in any artwork that goes on their walls. You could even let them help with the design or the actual painting. This type of activity is a great way to get a group or community together for a common cause, such as livening up a school or old building in the neighborhood.

Murals can be abstract or theme-specific. Good themes for a younger audience include animals, bright colors and lots of shapes. A psychedelic-style mural might work better in a more abstract space like a yoga or dance studio, while an office or organization may prefer a design that serves as a reminder of the company manifesto or cause.

You don't have to be an artist yourself to get something like this done. There are many individuals out there looking for outlets to express their own creativity or who will work with you to create something unique and special and to your requirements. They can be found through artists' forums and even by asking around. Who knows, you may have a creative family member or friend willing to do this type of work that you never knew about!
