Murals
Often clients will opt to express their unique individuality by having a wall mural painted in their home. In these instances the MAI will design and recommend a mural artist who can be commissioned to paint the mural. A beautiful, distinctive mural can be added to even the smallest of spaces.
These privately-commissioned murals can be used in kitchen and bath interior designs, living rooms, dining areas, and children’s bedrooms. A mural can transform a room into a fantasy world of forests, gardens, or any scenic landscape one can imagine. Murals can add individuality and character to a space.
Three Dimensional Wall Art
Another innovative technique for bringing a large space, such as a blank wall, to life is 3D wall art. When coordinated with your interior design plan, 3D wall art not only pulls together the style, theme, color and texture of the space; it also injects the unique personality of the client onto one of the major components of the room-the walls, and it does so in a realistic manner which reaches out to all who enter the space.
There are many factors to keep in mind in order to properly utilize three dimensional wall art. The piece must be in scale to the room, and the color scheme should be perfectly coordinated. Textural interest and contrast is a vital consideration in interior design, so that it matches the mood and theme of the design. Lines and shapes define the style of the room, whether contemporary, traditional, or transitional; therefore the lines and shapes of three dimensional wall art should either highlight the style of the interior design, or contrast in a pleasing way in order to add interest to the space. The subject matter of the piece should be appropriate for the function of the room as well. Patti Allen of MAI can create the perfect 3-D wall art design for your project and provide the artisans to make that design a reality.
