~ Wallpaper murals are designed not only to stand out but embody our untold stories without any filter. ~
You would agree if we say that walls have ears—but they also have stories to tell. From the hieroglyphs of Ancient Egypt to the frescoes of Rome, from the painted caves of Chauvet to the ceilings of the Sistine Chapel—murals have always been more than just art.
They’ve been storytellers, truth-tellers, and memory-keepers.
What was once cave art is now revolutionising interior decor as wallpaper murals. Murals have swiftly transitioned from palaces and temples into modern living rooms, bedrooms, and even balconies.
Ready to bring that beauty home? Read on.
What Exactly Are Wallpaper Murals?
The word “mural” traces its roots to the Latin word “murus”, meaning wall. While it originally described anything related to walls, over time, it came to represent large-scale artworks painted directly onto them.
Traditionally seen in public spaces and city exteriors, murals were powerful tools of expression. Artists used them to inspire communities, spark conversations, and spread social or political messages.
Thanks to advances in design and technology, wallpaper murals now bring that same artistic richness into our homes. They transform walls into an immersive visual experince that speak not just to the eyes, but to the heart.
Murals vs Wallpaper. What’s right for you?
While traditional wallpaper gently complements a space, a mural becomes its boldest feature, telling a story or creating a striking focal point. Think of traditional wallpaper as the background score and murals as the showstopper—both beautiful, but used for entirely different effects.
Let’s check the differences:
Feature | Traditional Wallpaper | Mural Wallpaper |
Design | Repeating patterns (dots, stripes, textures and motifs) | One large-scale image or artwork |
Visual Effect | Uniform and understated | Bold, statement-making and immersive |
Purpose | Adds a subtle differentiation and is usually used to hide flaws | Creating a focal point, depth and dimension. |
Customization | Usually limited to catalogues | Available for innovation and personal design |
Installation | Simpler to align and install | Needs professional precision to align the image |
Intent | A reliable choice that rarely goes wrong and seamlessly blends into the overall aesthetic of the room. | The hero of the room, dynamic, abstract and for those who love to express boldly. |
Wallpapers often follow a repeat pattern—florals, damasks, stripes, or geometric prints that seamlessly tile across walls. They’re designed to blend into the background, lending texture, colour, and a classic uniformity to a space. With Magicdecor’s mural prints, you can go beyond patterns and bring home personalised artistry that feels alive and emotionally resonant.
