The Resurgence of Interior Murals & the Art of Marouflage

After years of white-on-white, monochromatic interiors dominating the design world, custom interior murals are making a triumphant comeback — and interior designers and homeowners couldn't be more ready for it. A touch of texture, a whisper of muted color, and a hand-paintedfocal point can transform a sterile space into something deeply personal and visually captivating. While peel-and-stick wallpaper murals have filled the void for some, they come with limitations — repetitive patterns, visible seams, and a lack of originality that a truly custom piece simply cannot have. Painting a mural directly on the wall is an outstanding option for new construction or dramatic renovations, where the space is open, unfinished, and ready to be transformed without worry of damaging good flooring or existing furnishings. However, in a beautifully appointed home with fine carpet and finished interiors, bringing paint and equipment on site is not always practical — and that's precisely where the old-world French technique of Marouflage comes into play. The mural or decorative architectural elements are carefully painted on canvas in the studio, then expertly adhered directly to the wall on site, resulting in a flawless, seamless finish with none of the mess or disruption. Whether your vision calls for a sweeping landscape, an architectural trompe l'oeil, or a subtle decorative border, a custom interior mural created just for you is the ultimate expression of personal style — and unlike wallpaper, there will never be another one quite like it.
