Process

How to commission a mural for your business.

What happens between the first call and the finished wall, written for facilities managers, property managers and anyone who has to take this to a committee.

OneSite visit

Measure, read the surface, and work out what the room should feel like.

TwoConcept & proposal

A direction, a timeline and the full written scope.

Cleanup, photography and maintenance guidance.

Two of the six steps need you. The rest runs in the background, and the whole thing is designed so nothing lands on your desk twice.

Step one

The site visit

We come and look at the wall. Measurements, surface condition, access, lighting and sightlines, then the practical questions: when the space is quiet, what your safety process requires, who signs off. Surface condition gets assessed here, which is what lets the proposal price the wall you actually have.

Then the better half of the conversation. What mood do you want this space to carry, and what should someone feel walking into it?

We work that out together, and it is a real creative session rather than a form. Style, so the artwork belongs to the building it lives in. Imagery that means something to the people who use the room. The narrative running through it, so the wall is saying something rather than filling a space. And color worked to emotion: blues that settle a room, warm golds that make it welcoming, contrast dialed up where you want energy and held back where you want calm.

Most clients arrive with a wall and leave with a subject they care about. That is what gives a finished mural its weight, and it is the part facilities teams tell us they did not expect to enjoy.

Step two

Concept and proposal

You get a written proposal containing a concept direction, a phased timeline, named paint systems and protective coatings, a per-square-foot breakdown, the surface preparation scope, and weather contingency where the work is outside.

At this stage the concept is a direction: a sketch or mood board that shows where the work is heading. Full renderings follow once you have chosen the direction, so the detailed drawing goes into the idea you actually want on the wall.

Step three

Paperwork and site access

The documentation your procurement and safety teams need before anyone paints: a W-9 so you can set us up as a vendor, our certificate of insurance, your site safety induction, and any badge, escort or contractor protocol the building runs. At Amazon that has included sites still operating under full construction protocols. Started early, it runs alongside the design work and costs the schedule nothing.

Step four

Design and approval

The agreed direction becomes the real design, drawn to your wall's true proportions and composed around the doors, ducts, signage and sightlines that are genuinely there. You see it at scale, tell us what to change, and approve the final version before a brush is loaded. Changes at this stage cost nothing but a conversation, which is exactly why this step exists.

Step five

Installation

Surface preparation, then painting, on the schedule we agreed: days, nights or a reverse schedule. The area returns to working condition each morning, not at the end of the job. Protective coatings go on last.

Step six

Handover

Full cleanup, photography of the finished work, and written maintenance guidance covering expected lifespan, cleaning, and what a refresh would involve years from now.
