If you are in the market for colorful, fun and invigorating wall art with a modern look, a surf mural might be what you need. Scenic ocean views of surfers riding the waves on their colorful surfboards can transform any living area from everyday humdrum to high fashion that’s cheap and incredibly easy to install.
SURF MURAL SIZE
There are times when big is better. Modern styles of surf bedroom and den decor favor the crisp, clean look that a large sofa length surf wall mural presents. Contemporary homes by definition are decorated in a sleek and clutter free fashion. The wall hangings, art and furnishing may be sparse. But each piece is selected to make a big decorative statement. Large pieces of artwork fall right in line as rarely is more than one necessary and the decorative impact is huge.
PRICE
Surf murals with bold graphics with bright colors don’t come at a cheap price.
However, the fact that one piece of artwork will be all that is required should be factored in to your decision making process. Plus, no frame is required for most surf murals especially wallpaper murals that come pre-pasted and ready to mount directly on the wall. I find it disturbing that home owners reject the decorative benefits of wallpaper murals based on price without making the proper considerations and bottom line comparisons.
There are two common reasons( neither of which are valid) that my clients have given for rejecting big murals. I’m going to list them for you here so that you don’t make the same mistakes when buying surfing wall art for your decorating project. One reason is that the initial price seems expensive. The other is that they feel that artwork of that size may be difficult if not impossible for an amateur to mount properly on the wall. Do not let either of these opinions steer you away from purchasing a striking surf mural if your room calls for one.
DIFFERENT STYLES
There are large surf wall murals that work beautifully as a focal point behind the living room sofa. Then there is another, more mobile and versatile style of surf wall art; surf wall stickers and decals. These clever, vinyl cutouts allow you to exercise your own creative decorating ideas where full wall murals will not. You can arrange and rearrange the wall decals with Hawaiian designs, surf boards, palm trees and surfing quotes to your heart’s content. When your teenage girl tires of her surf mural, surf bedding set and bedroom decor, you have the option of relocating your reusable stickers to the bathroom or even to use as part of your decorations in a surf nursery room design for baby.
For surfers who love to live their hobby, surf wall murals are an excellent place to start.
