Enter your exact wall width and height. Our production team automatically adds a 2-inch (5 cm) safety margin for precise trimming, ensuring a perfect fit during installation.

Installation
Simple steps for the best long-lasting results
PREPARE THE WALL
Ensure the wall is clean, dry, smooth and stable. Remove dust, grease, loose paint and old wallpaper. Repair any holes or cracks.
CHECK PAINT
The paint should be fully cured (minimum 3–4 weeks). Use a matte or eggshell finish. Avoid fresh, damp or peeling paint.
ALIGN & APPLY
Check the panel order and pattern alignment, then apply each panel carefully with a soft smoother to remove bubbles and secure the edges.
DRY & SET
Allow the wallpaper to set for 24–48 hours. Avoid washing, heavy cleaning or placing items against the wall during this time.
ROOM CONDITIONS: Install wallpaper in normal room conditions on a clean, dry, smooth wall with fully cured paint. Avoid very cold, hot, humid, damp, or freshly painted surfaces for the best long-lasting result.
Frequently Asked Questions
In which rooms do dramatic murals work best?
Dramatic murals work in living rooms, feature walls, bedrooms or studios where bold tone and clear shape help build visual impact and focal points.
How should I choose the right scale and color for a dramatic mural?
Large walls suit larger shapes and strong graphics; smaller rooms benefit from lighter contrast. Deep blues or black-tones add depth; neutrals keep balance.
How do I maintain a dramatic mural so it lasts and retains its look?
Use a soft damp cloth for cleaning; avoid harsh chemicals or abrasive tools. Properly installed murals on quality material continue to look sharp and stable.
How do I choose the right size and placement for my mural?
Measure the full width and height of your wall, including any doors or windows. Use custom size options to get a precise fit and avoid major trimming.
What material options are available for mural installations?
Most providers offer non-woven, vinyl, peel-and-stick or heavy-grade materials. These allow for easy cleaning and strong durability for indoor use.
