Best Locations for Murals

If you’re looking to draw more customers to your business or increase awareness of your brand, adding a mural can help transform your environment and make your business stand out. But where are the best places to actually put a mural?

As a business owner, murals can be a great way to attract new clients or customers, inspire your employees, and improve your atmosphere. They’re also great for generating a buzz on social media and helping you increase your ROI. And the good news is that a professional muralist like Mike Ecker from Boundless Walls can add them to almost any surface!  

Where to Place Your Mural

There are so many great places to add your mural, but some mural locations will be more effective than others when it comes to achieving your objectives. First, you’ll want to decide what your goals are for the mural, and then our expert muralist can work with you to determine the best design and placement.

Outdoors

Placing your mural on the exterior of your building can help draw attention to your business and ensure your mural (and your brand) sticks in the minds of passersby. Outdoor murals will wear down more quickly than ones placed inside, but with the right paint and proper technique, they’ll still look incredible for years to come.  

Murals on the front or side of your building are great for taking pictures, which encourages online engagement as people share and tag your business. They also help your company become a local landmark as your mural is used as a location reference due to its vibrance and uniqueness. Overall, outdoor murals are a great option to attract customers and increase your memorability. 

Indoors

Murals located inside a building are obviously less eye-catching to people walking or driving past, but they can really transform a space. They retain that memorability aspect for customers or clients who enter your building, and the artistic boost to your aesthetic has been shown to inspire customers and put them in a better mood. (Which could increase the chance of them purchasing something.)

Indoor murals have excellent durability and really help bring your store or workplace to the next level. Even employees are positively impacted by the addition of a mural, often increasing their productivity. Murals can also be used to showcase your company’s values which is a great way to promote your brand and remind both customers and employees of what you stand for. 

Offices

As we just mentioned, indoor murals can help boost the mood and productivity of employees. When added to an office wall — whether in a common room or a conference room — murals can stimulate creativity and foster a sense of community. Employees feel appreciated when they see that you work to make their environment more appealing, and it makes them want to do better and be better. 

Plus, office murals can help further instill the values of your company when they’re included in the mural. This can inspire the people who enter your building and really drive home your brand identity. Custom murals suited to your brand also help attract top talent, giving your workplace a caring, down-to-earth edge over competitors. 

Restaurants

Adding a mural to a wall (or walls) in your restaurant is a surefire way to stand out amongst the crowd. In San Diego, there are so many wonderfully delicious places to eat with a variety of cuisine to try. Competing in such a saturated market can be difficult, but adding a mural to your dining area or back patio can give you a unique advantage.  

Every restaurant has some form of art, but a large mural really draws attention and makes the dining experience even more memorable. It can add to your atmosphere and increase your online engagement. It can even be a fun way to spruce up your bathrooms or upgrade the parts of your space that just aren’t as appealing as the rest. 

Gyms

A lot of gyms have boring vibes with plain walls and an empty feel due to the lack of furniture and surplus of machines. Adding a mural as an accent wall can give gym-goers something more pleasing to look at as they work on their gains. A great muralist can help you create a design that not only enhances your aesthetic but also motivates and inspires your patrons to work harder. Giving your gym a more welcoming atmosphere can increase memberships and encourage people to return more often.
