Walls are an essential, functional part of most rooms but, let’s face it; they can be somewhat boring to look at. In fact, the same can be said about both internal and external walls – even walls that are used to fence off open spaces. All walls start as an expanse of blank space. This universal fact applies just as well to the Northeast Florida city of St. Augustine as elsewhere (despite St, Augustine being the oldest continuously occupied European settlement in the continental US).
The Wall As A Bare Canvas
When an artist has purchased a canvas and stretched onto a frame; there is nothing to look at until he or she has started to apply the paints, or whatever other media they intend to use, to create their finished work of art. If we liken a wall to such a bare canvas; then, the very least that we do with it is to apply colour. A painted wall is a little more pleasing to the eye but still cannot be described as inspiring.
However, the application of Wall Graphics In St. Augustine can work wonders when applied to that not quite so bare painted wall. These graphics can take many forms. They can be painted directly onto a wall’s surface or they can be applied to another surface that can then be affixed to the wall. They can be totally abstract or highly lifelike and can be pictorial or in words and numbers. Some Wall Graphics In St. Augustine may be purely decorative in nature and applied simply to make that wall a more pleasing thing to look at; other Wall Graphics In St. Augustine will have been applied for commercial or informational reasons.
Functional And Decorative
Wall Graphics In St. Augustine could be as basic as signs informing people of the function of the room or directions on how to reach a room but even a graphic informing people of the way to the nearest emergency exit can, at least, be pleasantly designed. But, such signs still leave the rest of the wall bare. That remaining wall space can be used decoratively and in a way that makes people looking at it feel more comfortable by putting them at their ease.
Take a dental clinic for example, the waiting area could have a relaxing pastoral scene adorning its wall; or it could have graphic pictures of bad teeth hanging on the wall. The latter types of Wall Graphics In St. Augustine might be very informative but, if you were suffering painful toothache, which would you rather sit and look at?
