Step 1 | Select a Mural
Browse the library of murals, and find the best one for your project. Make sure to choose a mural that has a panel size appropriate for your space. Ensure that the chosen mural offers a panel size that is slightly taller than your papered area.
Step 2 | Order a Sample
Once you have chosen your mural, procure samples for the color and material you’re intending to use. If you’re considering more than one material type, get samples of each, as color can change between substrates.
Take the samples into the intended project space and view them in that setting. Attach them to the wall, view them from a distance, and observe the lighting and its effect on the design. Rooms with natural lighting should be viewed at different times of day.
Step 3 | Calculate Panel Quantity
After viewing your samples and deciding your preferred color and material, determine how many panels you will need based on the appropriate size option from your chosen mural. Record the panel width as it will be used to determine panel quantity.
For a focal wall, take the width of the wall and divide it by the panel width. Round up the result to the next whole number to find your panel quantity.
For multiple walls, add the widths of all walls together and divide the total by the panel width. After rounding up, this will be the number of panels needed to encompass the entire room.
Example: If your walls add up to 300” wide and the mural panels are 36” wide, divide 300” by 36” to equal 8.33. This rounds up to 9, meaning you will need 9 mural panels to completely cover the walls.
Step 4 | Order Your Mural
Determine which wall will act as the focal wall. Using the panel quantity from step 3, see how many panels will cover this focal wall. Based on this, refer to the mural layout and choose the ideal scene to place in this focal area. Chosen panels must be consecutive to ensure seamless artwork.
After determining the panels for this focal wall, use this area as a starting point to determine the rest of the panels in the room. Continue assigning panels consecutively until you have all panels around the room assigned. Record the quantity of each panel number to build your order.
When papering a whole room, there will be a “blend point” where the mural comes back on itself unnaturally. Place this point above an obstruction, such as a doorway, to ensure it is not visible. Adjust the mural placement accordingly to conceal this point as discretely as possible.
Once the quantity of each unique panel has been calculated, contact your sales representative to order your mural panels.
