Custom Photo Gallery Wall Printing for Interior Spaces

Custom photo wallcovering transforms your high-resolution images—panoramas, vacation photos, or branded graphics—into large-format wallpaper for commercial or residential interiors. Unlike off-the-shelf patterns, these are 100% bespoke to your artwork.

Process: Submit files via Dropbox/WeTransfer, our prepress team checks resolution and color profiles, we provide proofs, then print using UV technology (up to 52” wide, 1200 DPI). Choose from commercial-grade wallcoverings—textured, smooth, fabric-backed, or peel-and-stick options.

Applications: Corporate branding in lobbies, retail theming, residential feature walls with family photos or travel panoramas. Each mural divides into sequential panels, labeled for easy installation.

Successful large-format projects require matching resolution to physical dimensions and viewing distance.

Optimal DPI Guidelines: - 100-150 DPI at final print size for walls viewed from distance (lobbies, hallways) - 150-300 DPI for close-view installations (offices, residential spaces) - Higher resolution preserves detail but creates larger files

Best Practices: Submit original files (TIFF, PSD, AI) avoiding compressed JPEGs. Check aspect ratio alignment with wall dimensions. Request sample panel for high-stakes projects to validate quality before full production.

Ideal Subjects: Panoramic landscapes (skylines, mountains, beaches), abstract/textured imagery (gradients, geometric patterns), brand-centric designs (logos, corporate graphics), nature themes (forests, coral, florals) for biophilic design.

Composition Tips: Keep primary subjects centered, avoid crucial details near panel edges, use vibrant high-contrast images for distance viewing. We can tile multiple images into collages or continuous panoramas with color matching across sources.

Absolutely. Many clients showcase multiple images in large-format installations—family moments, corporate milestones, or travel memories. Our prepress team blends various images, matching tones, scales, and styles for unified compositions.

Process: Gather high-resolution images (150-300 DPI at print scale), share via file transfer, include arrangement notes. We handle panel segmentation, color matching, and provide digital proofs for positioning review.

Benefits: Visual storytelling for offices/hospitality, dynamic design mixing different panoramas, personal uniqueness for custom corporate or residential walls.

Peel-and-Stick: Adhesive backing, repositionable, easier DIY installation, simpler removal with minimal residue. Best for short-term use, seasonal campaigns, accent walls.

Traditional Fabric-Backed: Requires commercial adhesives, highly durable for long-term/heavy-traffic areas, professional installation recommended. Ideal for corporate lobbies, hospitality suites, permanent installations.

Key Differences: Peel-and-stick offers flexibility and easy updates; fabric-backed provides premium finish and dimensional stability in varying humidity/traffic conditions.

Panel Distribution: Split artwork into panels up to 52” wide with strategic seam placement along less noticeable areas (gradients, backgrounds) avoiding focal points.

Precision Alignment: 1-2 inch overlaps prevent gaps, registration marks guide alignment, scaled layout proofs show panel positioning and top-to-bottom coverage.

Installation Support: Step-by-step instructions clarify panel sequence and overlap handling. Surface prep requires evenly painted/primed walls, dust-free, fully cured if freshly painted.

Our Mimaki UV presses produce up to 1200 DPI with expansive color gamut supporting most designs from simple logos to intricate collages.

Color Capabilities: CMYK + White covers vast shade ranges. Limitations: True metallics, fluorescents, certain neons lie outside CMYK—we recommend visually similar alternatives.

Design Complexity: Fine lines and micro text remain sharp with adequate resolution. Layered designs welcomed—prepress team checks alignment and color consistency.

Recommendations: Provide highest-resolution files possible, share Pantone/paint swatches for precise matching, consider lighting impact on final installation.

Acceptable Formats: PDF (fonts embedded), TIFF (lossless, flattened), PSD/AI (properly organized layers).

Color Mode: CMYK preferred for print accuracy. Convert from RGB early if color accuracy critical. We accept Lab Color but convert to CMYK for press compatibility.

Best Practice: Send files at final intended size when possible. Our prepress team reviews setup for optimal color handling and resolution management.

For large-scale walls viewed from distance, aim for 100-150 DPI at final print size. Close-range viewing (narrow hallways) requires 200-300 DPI for sharp details.

Guidelines: Too low resolution causes visible pixelation. Provide highest-resolution files available—our prepress experts handle upscaling/adjustments if needed.

File Transfer Options: Dropbox (shared folders), WeTransfer (up to 2GB free), Google Drive (ongoing projects), Direct FTP (sensitive/proprietary artwork).

File Naming: Label clearly (e.g., “Lobby-Mural_Final_300DPI.jpg”) to avoid confusion with multiple versions.

Artwork Assessment: Check resolution levels, offer upsampling or alternative layouts if needed.

Color Services: Review profiles for optimal print conversion, match Pantone/paint swatches (Sherwin-Williams, Benjamin Moore), provide press proofs for critical color fidelity.

Creative Adjustments: Enhance contrast, remove blemishes, retouch flaws, adjust cropping for perfect wall composition.

We maintain extensive color library including Pantone®, Benjamin Moore®, Sherwin Williams®. We isolate specific hues and fine-tune during prepress.

Process: Spectrophotometer analysis compares target swatches to our library, color adjustment aligns photo files with desired codes, sample verification confirms critical branding through proofs.

Dedicated Brand Profiles: Custom color profiles for businesses ensure stable reproduction across materials.

Quality Control: Periodic printer calibration maintains consistent output, physical/digital proofs verify critical colors for large-scale installations.

Multi-Location Support: Archived profiles ensure consistent branding across different sites and time periods.

Press proof is physical test print on your chosen substrate showing exact appearance before full production.

Standard Proof: 18” x 24” sample panel confirms color and clarity. Extended Options: Multiple colorway swatches available (additional fees may apply).

Recommended for: Corporate branding projects, strict color guidelines, intricate designs requiring early issue detection.

Prevention Methods: Printer calibration, batch consistency checks, spectrophotometer readings throughout production, visual inspection of panel overlays.

Profile Retention: Store unique color profiles for repeat orders, multi-location rollouts ensuring consistent standards across time.

Detailed Guide: How to Prepare Surfaces for Wallpaper

Environmental Conditions: 65°F-85°F with 40-60% humidity, allow 2-week cure time for fresh paint.

Moderate conditions: Peel-and-stick handles everyday wear and moderate humidity well.

Extreme conditions: High moisture (commercial kitchens) or high-impact traffic (hospital hallways) better served by fabric-backed wallcoverings with commercial adhesives.

Peel-and-Stick: Short-to-mid-term applications, moderate traffic resistance, everyday wear tolerance.

Commercial Fabric-Backed: Long-term durability, heavy-use resistance, frequent cleaning capability. Type II commercial-grade substrates better for high-impact environments.

Gentle Cleaning: Mild soap and water with soft cloth, avoid harsh chemicals (bleach, strong solvents), pat dry to prevent seam moisture.

Commercial Spaces: Regular gentle wiping maintains fresh appearance without surface degradation.

Peel-and-Stick: Typically removes with minimal residue from properly prepped walls (smooth, primed, cured).

Fabric-Backed: More involved removal requiring steam or adhesive softeners. Proper prep and gentle technique minimize wall damage.
