5. Garage

The garage is often an afterthought in interior design. So why not give it the attention it deserves with a stunning wall mural of its own?

For the ideal blank canvas, look no further than your garage door. Or fill the blank wall space inside your garage with vibrant colors and intriguing designs.

Graffiti-inspired artwork is a great idea if you’re looking to give your garage exterior a facelift. No matter your personal aesthetic — pop art, floral, realistic, or something else entirely — a custom wall mural is the perfect way to up your garage’s curb appeal.

6. Gray

Wall murals and bright colors often go hand-in-hand. But you can enjoy just as much artistry in grayscale as you can in full-color. Gray murals are great at showcasing black-and-white photos or detailed artwork that would be muddied by a vibrant color scheme.

Natural subject matter, whether photo-realistic or artistically rendered, will ensure your mural conveys plenty of energy even without the use of color. Choose a design with lots of depth.

Be sure to introduce some color with the rest of your home decor. Deep muted tones and pops of bright color are both great options to contrast your gray wall decor. The more subdued your room’s palette, the more your mural will stand out as its focal point.

7. Hand Painted

Although custom wall decals have made designing a mural easier than ever before, nothing can replace the charm of a hand-painted feature wall.

Hand-painted murals are especially lovely in a nursery or children’s bedroom. However, nothing is stopping you from getting creative on your kitchen or dining room walls, either.
