Whether you’re a facilities director, interior design manager, or homeowner, you’ll appreciate the creative freedom, professional guidance, and high-quality finish that define our service.

A successful large-format project hinges on matching the resolution of your source image to the physical dimensions you plan to cover. While our UV presses can output prints at up to 1200 DPI, the real determining factor is how many pixels you have available in your original file—and how far away viewers will stand from the final display.

Key Considerations

1. Optimal DPI for Large Walls

• • As a rule of thumb, aim for 100–150 DPI at the final print size.
• • If walls are viewed from a greater distance (lobbies, hallways), 100 DPI at final size can be acceptable.
• • For close-view installations (e.g., small offices, residential spaces), 150–300 DPI ensures crisp detail.

2. Viewing Distance & Scale

• • The further away your audience is, the lower the apparent resolution needed.
• • A panorama in a large hotel lobby can be scaled to 100 DPI without noticeable pixelation.
• • An up-close feature wall in a boutique store might need higher resolution to preserve sharpness.

3. File Upscaling & Prepress

• • If your file doesn’t meet the ideal DPI, our prepress experts can advise on light upsampling (with caution).
• • Excessive digital enlargement can introduce artifacts or softness.
• • We often run a proof or sample print if the original image is borderline.

Best Practices

• ✓ Submit Original Files: Whenever possible, avoid heavily compressed JPEGs or lower-resolution exports. Raw or native files (TIFF, PSD, AI) preserve detail.
• ✓ Check Aspect Ratio: Ensure your image’s aspect ratio roughly aligns with the wall dimensions. Overly wide or tall ratios may need cropping.
• ✓ Request a Sample Panel: For high-stakes branding or corporate visuals, a small-scale test print validates quality before final production.

Large-format wallcoverings excel at showcasing bold, visually engaging imagery. Whether you’re adorning a corporate lobby, a retail environment, or a residential accent wall, certain subjects consistently produce eye-catching results in oversized applications.

Ideal Subjects

• Panoramic Landscapes: Sweeping city skylines, mountain vistas, or beach horizons—anything that benefits from a truly immersive scale.
• Abstract & Textured Imagery: Soft gradients, fluid shapes, or geometric patterns that flow beautifully across large wall spaces.
  Macro textures (e.g., stone, wood, foliage) also amplify visual interest without relying on perfect clarity of small details.
• Brand-Centric Designs: Logos, taglines, or corporate graphics that reinforce identity in reception areas, boardrooms, or pop-up events.
• Nature Themes: Forest scenes, underwater coral, or floral close-ups add a calming, organic vibe—often popular for spa-like settings or biophilic design approaches.

Artwork Alignment & Composition

1. Central Focal Points

• ✓ For scenic views, keep the primary subject (mountain peak, city skyline) centered or aligned with important architectural lines.
• ✓ Avoid crucial details near edges where seams or trimming might occur.

2. Color Palettes

• ✓ Vibrant, high-contrast images stand out best from a distance.
• ✓ Subtle or muted tones can work well in corporate or residential settings requiring a more subdued aesthetic.

3. Adaptability

• ✓ We can tile multiple images into a collage or continuous panorama.
• ✓ If your project includes text overlays or corporate messaging, ensure the overall layout remains legible at a glance.

By choosing high-impact imagery that aligns with your design vision and checking its resolution suitability, you’ll end up with a striking, large-format wall that resonates with viewers—be they employees, customers, or guests.

Absolutely. Many corporate designers, homeowners, and project managers enjoy showcasing multiple images in a single large-format installation—be it a cohesive collage of family moments or multiple panoramic views that seamlessly flow together. Our prepress team can help you blend various images, matching their tones, scales, and styles to form a unified composition. This approach is especially popular for corporate branding walls featuring product shots, team photos, or milestone events, and for residential spaces that highlight travel memories or family history.

How It Works

1. Image Collection & Organization

• ✓ Gather high-resolution images (from 150 to 300 DPI, at intended print scale).
• ✓ Share them via Dropbox, WeTransfer, or Google Drive.
• ✓ Include notes on desired arrangement or relative sizes.

2. Design & Layout

• ✓ We’ll recommend the best panel segmentation, ensuring critical subjects don’t fall on tricky seams.
• ✓ Our prepress specialists handle color matching across varying image sources.
• ✓ We provide digital proofs so you can review positioning before final printing.

3. Seamless Integration

• ✓ Colors, contrast, and lighting can be adjusted in each photo for a uniform look.
• ✓ Panels arrive with overlap guides, making installation straightforward—no mismatched edges or awkward gaps.

Why Consider a Collage or Mixed Panorama

• Visual Storytelling: Collages resonate particularly well in offices or hospitality settings, where each image captures a piece of brand or family history.
• Eye-Catching Diversity: Mixing different panoramas (e.g., city skylines, natural landscapes) creates a dynamic design rather than focusing on a single scene.
• Personal & Unique: Even large corporate clients appreciate the custom flair a multi-image feature wall brings to a corporate lobby or conference area.

The main distinction lies in installation, durability, and removability. Peel-and-stick wallpaper has an adhesive backing and can be repositioned or removed more easily—appealing to facility managers who regularly refresh branding or residential clients seeking a DIY-friendly solution. Traditional fabric-backed wallpaper uses commercial-grade adhesives, making it highly durable for long-term or heavy-traffic areas like corporate offices, hotels, and healthcare facilities.

Quick Comparison Table

Why Choose One Over the Other

• Peel-and-Stick
  ✓ Perfect for short- to mid-term usage, frequent décor changes, or test branding.
  ✓ Ideal in leased spaces where minimal wall damage is preferred.
  ✓ Suits smaller installations or limited budgets.

• Fabric-Backed (Traditional)
  ✓ Favored by architects and designers for upscale finishes (grasscloth, suede, etc.).
  ✓ Maintains dimensional stability in environments with varying humidity or traffic.
  ✓ Offers longevity for large-scale, permanent designs.

Choosing the right type depends on longevity needs, budget, and installation preferences. A peel-and-stick wallpaper is often cost-effective for rapid corporate rebrands or DIY residential projects, while fabric-backed materials excel in premium, long-lasting applications—both delivering high-quality, vivid results when printed on our Mimaki UCVJ-300 UV presses.

Floor-to-ceiling and ultra-wide graphics create a dramatic focal point in corporate offices, hospitality venues, and residential spaces alike. When scaling images to these dimensions, our process involves strategic panel distribution, precision alignment, and detailed prepress planning.

Panel Distribution & Sizing

• ✓ Multiple Panels
  We split your large artwork into panels up to 52” wide, ensuring they’re easier to handle and install.
• ✓ Seam Placement
  Whenever possible, we align seams with less noticeable areas in the image—along architecture lines or background gradients—to minimize visual breaks.

Edge Overlaps & Registration

• ✓ 1–2 Inch Overlaps
  Each panel includes a small overlap zone, preventing gaps if walls are slightly out of plumb.
• ✓ Registration Marks
  We add marks at the panel edges, helping installers align each section without guesswork.

Prepress Schematics

• ✓ Scaled Layout Proof
  Before printing, we provide a digital mockup indicating how each panel fits, including top-to-bottom coverage.
• ✓ Critical Focal Points
  If your design contains key subjects—company logos, faces, or scenic landmarks—our team ensures panel breaks won’t cut through vital details.

Installation Guidance

• ✓ Step-by-Step Instructions
  Our documentation clarifies the panel sequence, how to handle overlaps, and recommended tools for smoothing out air pockets.
• ✓ Surface Prep
  For floor-to-ceiling installs, walls should be evenly painted or primed, free of dust or debris, and allowed to cure fully if freshly painted.

Floor-to-ceiling walls—particularly those with corners, windows, or built-in fixtures—require meticulous planning. By dividing the image into manageable panels, labeling each section, and providing a thorough layout guide, we ensure a flawless, immersive end result, whether it’s a full-height cityscape in a hotel lobby or a continuous panoramic in a high-end residential setting.

Our Mimaki UV presses produce up to 1200 DPI with an expansive color gamut, so most designs—from simple logos to intricate collages—translate beautifully onto our wallcoverings. That said, it’s crucial to know where physical or technological boundaries exist, especially if your design involves highly specialized hues, extreme detail, or unique finishing techniques.

Color Gamut & Specialty Inks

• ✓ CMYK + White
  Standard process colors (CMYK) and optional white ink cover a vast range of shades and opacities.
• ✓ Limitations
  True metallics, fluorescents, and certain neon-like shades lie outside typical CMYK capabilities. We can recommend visually similar alternatives, but exact matches to these extreme hues might not be possible.

Complexity & Detail

• ✓ Fine Lines & Micro Text
  Elements down to a few points in size remain sharp, but at very large scales, ensuring adequate resolution is key.
• ✓ Layered Designs
  Multi-layered or collage-style artwork is welcome; our prepress team checks alignment, color consistency, and potential moiré patterns before printing.

Material Constraints

• ✓ Texture & Finish
  Some deeply textured media (like Grasscloth or Mason) slightly alters perceived color and sharpness; consider ordering a test print if exact fidelity is critical.
• ✓ Press Proofs
  For high-stakes corporate branding or fine art reproductions, we recommend press proofs to confirm how each hue and detail appears on your chosen substrate.

Practical Tips

• Provide the highest-resolution files possible, especially for designs with small text or complex graphics.
• Share specific Pantone or paint swatches if you need precise color matching.
• Consider how lighting (natural vs. artificial) may shift color perception in the final installation.

In short, while our equipment and expertise support a wide range of color palettes and visual intricacies, a few practical constraints—like fluorescent inks or extreme metallic effects—may require creative adjustments or alternative print strategies. Our goal is to ensure your large-format design is both visually striking and technically feasible on the wallcovering material you choose.

Acceptable File Formats

• ✓ PDF (with fonts embedded)
• ✓ TIFF (lossless, flattened)
• ✓ PSD/AI (layers properly organized or flattened as needed)

Recommended Color Mode

• ✓ CMYK is preferred for print
• ✓ Convert from RGB to CMYK early if color accuracy is critical

Note: We also accept Lab Color format, but keep in mind that these will be converted to CMYK for compatibility with our press.

Pro Tip
Always send files at their final intended size whenever possible. If you’re unsure, our prepress team can review your setup for optimal color handling and resolution management.

For large-scale walls viewed from several feet away, aim for 100–150 DPI at the final print size. If the wall will be viewed at close range (e.g., a narrow hallway), consider going higher—around 200–300 DPI—to keep details sharp. Too low a resolution may result in visible pixelation or soft edges, so when in doubt, provide the highest-res file you have and let our prepress experts handle any upscaling or adjustments.

Yes. We realize multi-panel layouts can be daunting, especially when scaling a single image across multiple wall segments. Our guidelines take the guesswork out of panel breaks, overlaps, and alignment, ensuring a cohesive final installation.

• ✓ Scaled Panel Maps: We calculate how many panels your design will need based on wall width, height, and maximum print width (52”). Each panel is clearly labeled with minimal overlaps to prevent gaps in the final display.
• ✓ Seam Placement Recommendations: Where feasible, we align seams along less prominent areas of your artwork—like sky gradients or solid color backgrounds—so your focal points (logos, faces, scenic landmarks) aren’t sliced in awkward places.
• ✓ Installer-Friendly Documentation: You’ll receive a digital proof showing panel numbers, overlap zones, and step-by-step instructions. This resource helps both professional contractors and experienced DIYers line everything up perfectly.
• ✓ Prepress Consultation: For extensive or complex walls (e.g., wraparound corridors, multi-floor lobbies), we’re happy to schedule a call with your facilities manager or design principal to finalize panel sequencing and address any architectural quirks.

• ✓ Creative Edits: Need a collage or multi-layered composition? We can merge, rearrange, or overlay elements to achieve a cohesive final design that’s ready for large-format printing.

Pro Tip: If you have critical color requirements (like a corporate logo), it’s often best to provide a spot color (Pantone is a great place to start). We also encourage the use of vector files or original high-resolution images. This allows us to deliver more precise results, especially for large-format photowalls or mural projects.

Ensuring consistent color from roll to roll is essential, particularly for expansive murals or multi-room installations where separate panels must align seamlessly in hue, brightness, and tone. We take a systematic approach to prevent—or correct—any color discrepancies that could arise during large production runs.

• ✓ Printer Calibration: Each of our Mimaki presses undergoes routine calibration. We measure and fine-tune color output to maintain a uniform profile, reducing the likelihood of variations mid-run.
• ✓ Batch Consistency Checks: For extensive jobs, we print panels in logical batches (e.g., consecutive panels in one sequence) so that any slight fluctuations in ink or humidity conditions affect the entire set consistently.
• ✓ Spectrophotometer Readings: Our prepress team checks random samples throughout the print run using a spectrophotometer. If we detect a drift in color values, we pause production to recalibrate before continuing.
• ✓ Visual Inspection & Overlay: In addition to technical measurements, we visually compare one panel against its neighbor to spot any subtle color shifts—especially in areas of continuous gradients or large fields of uniform color.
• ✓ Retainment of Color Profiles: For repeat orders or multi-location rollouts, we store your unique color profile. This helps us replicate the same color standards if you require additional panels months or years later.

By blending technical precision with human oversight, we guarantee your multi-roll or multi-panel projects appear as one cohesive image. If any unforeseen discrepancy arises, we’ll catch it early and correct it—keeping your project on schedule and looking its absolute best.

We understand that color fidelity can be critical, especially for brand-conscious clients or intricate designs. While we provide one press proof or test swatch as part of our standard service, further proofs or in-depth color revisions may incur supplemental fees.

• ✓ Additional Press Proofs
  Multiple variations or large-scale proofs are charged at a nominal rate to cover extra ink, material, and press time.
• ✓ Complex Color Corrections
  Major overhauls or repeated re-proofs (for instance, matching hard-to-achieve brand colors) may involve higher fees. We’ll always communicate costs before proceeding.
• ✓ Bulk Changes
  If you’re ordering multiple wallcoverings (e.g., different offices or rooms), we can bundle color tweaks for cost-efficiency.

Bottom Line: We strive to keep your expenses transparent. Simple fixes are often included, but extensive proof iterations beyond the standard scope may be billed separately, ensuring you get precisely the result you need without hidden surprises.

Our press proofs are the closest predictor of your final output because they’re produced on the same equipment, using the same ink set and chosen material. However, a few variables can introduce minor discrepancies:

• ✓ Material Characteristics
  Certain textures or finishes (e.g., matte vs. gloss) can subtly shift how colors appear, even if using the same ink.
• ✓ Lighting Conditions
  Prints under natural daylight can look different than under warm indoor lighting or fluorescent office fixtures.
• ✓ Environmental Factors
  Changes in humidity or temperature during a long print run might nudge the colors slightly, this is why our routine calibrations eliminate shifts for consistent results.

Due to these factors, the final print will always match the proof with remarkable accuracy, especially when viewed in similar conditions. If you have critical brand standards or a particularly exacting design, we recommend reviewing the proof under the same lighting environment in which the final wallcovering will be displayed.

1. Reference-Driven Printing

Once you’ve approved a press proof, we keep a timestamped copy (physical or digital) that serves as our gold standard. Every roll we print is matched against this reference so we can catch even the slightest color or detail deviations. This methodical approach ensures all panels align seamlessly and adhere to the same color profile.

Timestamped Proof Archive

• ✓ We store a copy of your final proof (signed off by the client and our prepress manager).
• ✓ In multi-site or phased rollouts, we refer back to this proof for every subsequent print run, preventing variations between batches.

2. Continuous Color Calibration

To maintain color fidelity, we rely on a system of rigorous calibrations and inline checks:

Daily Printer Calibration

• ✓ Our Mimaki presses are tested for ink density, nozzle performance, and environmental factors each day.
• ✓ We adjust output to keep color saturation, contrast, and hue consistent with your approved proof.

Inline Spectrophotometer Measurements

• ✓ Random test swatches are measured during the run.
• ✓ Any drift from the proof’s color values triggers an immediate recalibration.

3. Roll-by-Roll Inspection

For expansive or high-importance jobs—like brand-heavy corporate murals or museum-quality reproductions—we examine each printed roll before it leaves the press area:

Visual Spot Checks

• ✓ Our technicians compare each new roll to the proof under standardized lighting conditions.
• ✓ They look for alignment issues, banding, or color shifts that might appear in large-scale imagery.

Panel Alignment Verification

• ✓ With multi-panel projects, we unroll and align panel edges to confirm the image lines up across seams.
• ✓ This is especially critical for architects and design principals who require perfect pattern continuity.

4. Timestamped Approval & Documentation

Throughout the entire QC pipeline, we document each checkpoint with timestamps and inspector initials:

Real-Time Logs

We exclusively ship via FedEx with a signature requirement, ensuring that your custom wallpaper rolls arrive safely and aren’t left unattended. This method offers dependable tracking updates, so you can follow the shipment’s progress until it reaches your doorstep.

We currently ship only within the continental U.S. to avoid potential issues with customs delays or damaged goods in transit. If you’re outside the lower 48 states, we can coordinate delivery to a domestic freight forwarder of your choice, but we do not manage overseas shipping directly.

• ✓ Protective Wrapping: Rolls are wrapped in moisture-resistant paper or plastic, keeping them safe from water or dirt.
• ✓ Sturdy Tubes or Boxes: Depending on roll length, we use reinforced shipping tubes or durable corrugated boxes.
• ✓ Extra Padding: We include end caps and bubble wrap or foam inserts if needed, ensuring your prints remain secure during transit.

While FedEx provides an expected delivery date and offers tools like Delivery Manager, we can’t guarantee an exact time slot. If you have tight scheduling needs, we’ll do our best to coordinate with FedEx and keep you informed. However, final delivery timing depends on their availability and routing.

Typically, shipping costs are billed separately and outlined clearly in your project estimate or final invoice. If you need expedited shipping or additional services like white-glove delivery, let us know early, and we’ll factor those costs into your quote to avoid surprises.

We focus exclusively on printing and prepress so we can excel at our core expertise—delivering outstanding custom wallpaper. We don’t officially partner with contractors, as we can’t vouch for their work quality. However, we regularly coordinate with installation crews and provide detailed schematics and step-by-step instructions to ensure a seamless fit. This way, you’re free to hire the contractor or installer you trust, while we maintain control over the printing and prepress processes we know best.

Proper surface prep is critical for trouble-free installation and long-lasting adhesion. You’ll want to:

• Inspect Walls
  Identify any cracks, holes, flaking paint, or signs of moisture and repair them accordingly.
• Ensure Dryness
  High humidity or damp areas compromise adhesion, so let surfaces fully dry before proceeding.
• Smooth & Prime
  Fill or sand down imperfections and prime the wall for the best adhesive bond.

How to Prepare Surfaces for Wallpaper

Below is a quick reference table to address common wall conditions:

By following these steps, you’ll maximize adhesion and durability, ensuring your peel-and-stick wallpaper looks flawless for years to come.

We take care of the panel distribution and overlap planning during prepress, so it’s straightforward for your installer (or you) to align each section. We provide panel maps, registration marks, and clear instructions to help you match edges correctly. By following our labeled sequence (e.g., Panel A, Panel B), you’ll naturally align the design to create a unified image. If you do have questions mid-install, our project managers are just a phone call away.

Yes, peel-and-stick wallpaper can tolerate moderate humidity and everyday wear—perfect for a busy office corridor or an active living space. However, for spaces with extreme moisture (like commercial kitchens or constantly steamy bathrooms) or high-impact traffic (hospital hallways, large retail), we often suggest fabric-backed wallcoverings with commercial adhesives. These offer extra durability, better dimensional stability, and a longer lifespan under demanding conditions.

We strongly advise including the full wall surface—doors, windows, and all—when calculating square footage. It’s much better to have slight overage you can trim away than to run short and attempt patchwork later. Your installer can easily cut out these openings during application, ensuring a smooth, continuous design with no unsightly gaps or mismatched seams around frames or edges.

Yes—if you’re using peel-and-stick materials, you can typically lift and reposition panels several times before the adhesive begins to lose effectiveness. This flexibility lets you correct alignment errors or smooth out air bubbles without damaging the wall. However, traditional fabric-backed wallpaper applied with commercial adhesives is less forgiving. Once the adhesive sets, repositioning may require special tools or additional paste—so plan carefully and make adjustments quickly.

Aim for a stable, room-temperature environment—around 65°F to 85°F (18°C to 29°C)—with moderate humidity levels (40–60%). Extreme heat, cold, or moisture can compromise the adhesive bond and lead to wrinkling or peeling.

• ✓ HVAC Readiness: Ensure the space is fully enclosed with a functional climate control system.
• ✓ Surface Dryness: Walls should be free of excess moisture or high humidity, especially if newly painted.
• ✓ Cure Time: If you’re working in an area that has just undergone construction or renovation, allow fresh paint or primer at least two weeks to cure fully for best results.

Peel-and-stick wallpaper is designed for short- to mid-term applications in moderate traffic areas. It’s resistant to everyday wear—like scuffs or light moisture—but can’t match the long-term durability of commercial, fabric-backed wallcoverings with heavy-duty adhesives. If you anticipate heavy use, frequent cleaning, or high-impact contact, a Type II commercial-grade substrate will likely better withstand the test of time.

Our UV inks are fade-resistant for typical indoor exposure. In most interior settings, you’ll see minimal fading over many years. However, intense direct sunlight can speed up color shifts, especially near large windows without UV-protective treatments. If your wall gets strong sunlight all day, consider using light-blocking blinds or UV window films to help preserve vibrancy.

• ✓ Mild Soap & Water: Use a damp, soft cloth with gentle detergent to remove smudges or dirt.
• ✓ No Harsh Chemicals: Avoid bleach or strong solvents that might degrade the ink or material.
• ✓ Pat Dry: Use a clean towel to prevent moisture buildup in seams.

For high-traffic commercial spaces, regular gentle wiping keeps the prints looking fresh without wearing down the surface.

• Peel-and-Stick: Typically peels away with minimal residue, provided the wall was prepped correctly (smooth, primed, and fully cured).
• Fabric-Backed (Commercial Adhesive): Removal is more involved and may require steam or adhesive softeners. With proper prep and gentle technique, you can minimize wall damage.

In most cases, peel-and-stick panels can’t be reused once removed, especially if they’ve lost tack or stretched during removal. For fabric-backed installs, reusability is even less likely because the adhesive forms a more permanent bond. If you anticipate relocating the mural, consider a fresh reprint rather than trying to salvage used panels.

• ✓ Monthly Dust or Wipe-Down: Removes buildup from high-traffic corridors and reception areas.
• ✓ Quarterly Inspection: Check seams and corners for signs of peeling or wear.
• ✓ As-Needed Touch-Ups: Spot-clean any marks promptly to prevent stains from setting.

This routine helps maintain a crisp, professional appearance over time.

• ✓ Gently Wipe: Use a soft cloth dampened with mild soap solution.
• ✓ Do Not Scrub Aggressively: Abrasive sponges or brushes can scratch the print layer.
• ✓ Touch-Up Paint: If you have any leftover ink or can coordinate color matching, small scuffs might be repaired with color dabs, though this is more common for fabric-backed products.

In most cases, a simple, gentle cleaning routine will remove or minimize everyday scuffs.

Yes. Beyond our standard vinyl options, we carry PVC-free and low-VOC wallcoverings like Terralon and Nolar, which are crafted from sustainable substrates and emit fewer chemicals into indoor air. These choices are perfect for clients aiming to minimize environmental impact without compromising on print quality or durability.

Many of our eco-friendly materials meet stringent standards for indoor air quality and responsible sourcing. For example, Terralon wallcoverings contain post-consumer recycled content, while Nolar products are often compliant with recognized green-building criteria. Exact certifications vary by substrate; we’ll gladly provide details on the specific rolls you select.

By choosing PVC-free or low-VOC wallcoverings, you can potentially earn LEED credits in categories like Materials & Resources and Indoor Environmental Quality. Our Terralon and Nolar lines, in particular, contain recycled content and lower emissions, supporting corporate sustainability goals. The extent of LEED contribution depends on your overall project scope and relevant building standards.

If you have excess prints or end-roll scraps, we recommend contacting local recycling facilities capable of handling mixed or specialized materials. Some of our PVC-free options can be recycled through industrial programs. We also advise donating intact, unused panels to local art programs or nonprofits when feasible, reducing waste while benefiting the community.

We primarily use UV-cured inks, which have low VOC emissions and require fewer harmful solvents compared to traditional solvent-based printing. Additionally, our digital printing process generates minimal waste—no bulky plates or excess runoff chemicals. This approach helps us maintain a smaller ecological footprint while producing vibrant, high-resolution graphics.

Absolutely. We keep technical data sheets on hand that detail recycled content, VOC levels, and other green attributes for each substrate. If you’re pursuing LEED credits or need to show compliance with specific environmental standards, our project managers can compile and share all relevant documentation to streamline your building certification process.
