"Mural Mural on the Wall..."

Of course, Harley Michael Davidson is the fairest of them all, but we're talking murals here.

Cavemen started painting murals over 32,000 years ago. We have no way of knowing why murals were all the rage back in those prehistoric times but the fashion is still with us today in the form of street graffiti and murals.

Here in the concrete canyons of New York City we use murals to add color and uniqueness to our clients homes. A well executed mural sets the mood for the entire space whether it be a Penthouse or a beach house. Murals can be painted directly on your walls or on canvas to be taken with you if you are so inclined.

A residential mural should reflect the character and values of the people who live there. A bamboo mural offers a sense of strength and grace. In Chinese philosophy, the straight stem of bamboo symbolizes the path towards enlightenment, the segments of the stem being the steps along the way. This being the perfect backdrop for the interior of goal oriented people who enjoy the calmness nature brings to our lives.   

       

  

Others, prefer less symbolic gestures and prefer more literal imagery such as the street scene mural at the Hit Factory. We worked with a street artist by the name of KET and his artistic posse to create an exciting graphic of a Hell's Kitchen neighborhood where the apartment is 

located.

Less illustrative graphics can also bring color and dimension to an otherwise boring space without the expense associated with more complicated designs. Stripes of all sizes and angles using carefully chosen colors bring a space together by accentuating accents and base colors used throughout the room. This technique can be as subtle or as bold as you like. Each client has different needs and a Cole & Garrett Mural caters to that individuality.

We recommend wallpaper to clients quite frequently but nothing communicates one's own personal style and taste as a bespoke mural. Imagine living with a creative work of art unlike anything found elsewhere in the world. It's truly a life experience you will take with you for years to come not to mention all the flattering compliments you will receive from your friends and guests to your home.

Our murals vary in price depending upon the size and complexity of the design. Contact cole@cole-garrett.com to receive a free quote for your very own Cole & Garrett Mural.
