PROJECT PROCESS >>

Each mural is shaped around the site, surface, scale, access, budget, and creative direction. Click below to learn more about each stage of the process.

BRIEF + SITE PHOTOS

The project starts with the basic site details. The customer sends photos of the wall, rough dimensions, location, timeframe, and any ideas for the artwork. This helps define the project scope and provide an accurate cost.

CONCEPT + REFINEMENT

After the brief and cost are confirmed, the concept stage begins. Artwork is developed to suit the wall, space, and creative direction, with refinements made through client feedback before final approval for painting.

DATES + LOGISTICS

Once the artwork is approved, project dates, access, materials, surface requirements, and site logistics are confirmed. This helps make sure the painting stage can run smoothly and the wall is ready before work begins.

PAINTING + COATING PROTECTION

The mural is painted on site using materials suited to the surface, location, and environment. Protective coating can be added where required, especially for outdoor walls, public spaces, hospitality venues, or high-traffic areas.
