- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
Here's what to do FIRST: Measure your wall. Height and Width, feet is preferred. Most standard interior walls are about 8' x 10', so I'll use that example in this exercise. Determine square feet. The math for that is: 8 x 10 = 80. Bam! You've got 80 square feet. Take pictures of the space. What's the texture of your wall? This is important as some textures take longer - brick, big grooves or stucco with big holes in it all add the that amount of paint and time needed. You've gathered all the above info. You're next step is to ****************************** Generally, I charge based on square footage. I have two tiers of pricing. Tier 1 is an illustrative or graphic design, with a simplistic color scheme. For a very simple design I generally charge $25 per square feet. Tier 2 For a detailed project (very realistic with lots of color) I charge $27-30 per square feet. Blending and changing colors takes much more time, which is the reason for the cost. A mural is personal to you. It doesn't have to be complicated but it does require a bit of planning on the front end. Because it is custom to YOU! That's the fun part! There is a one time design fee of $500 that goes towards your overall cost. This process involves creating a design specific for your space and vision. We chat about what you're looking for and I create mock-ups and a final renderending for your custom mural. Ready to transform your space?
