Window vinyls at Flow in Manchester

Public Art & Murals

Turning walls and physical spaces into landmarks that tell a story.

I design custom artwork for physical environments. Every project is planned around the history and layout of the specific space, ensuring the final design fits perfectly and means something to the people who see it.

  • Building hoardings and public art installations
  • Interior and exterior murals (printed)
  • Window graphics and stained-glass style vinyls
  • Office and reception feature walls

Technical Deliverables

I deliver clean, professional files that ensure a smooth handover to your print, design, or production teams.

  • Scalability: Infinitely scalable vector files (AI, EPS, SVG) that print perfectly at any size, from small merchandise to massive building wraps.
  • Colour accuracy: Artwork is supplied in CMYK for print, RGB for digital screens, or specified Pantone references for large-scale production.
  • Layer organisation: Files are logically structured and clearly named, making them ready to adapt, edit, or hand over to animators.

Experience & Sectors

I work with clients across the UK and internationally, tailored primarily around three main areas:

  • Public spaces: Corporate clients looking to transform workplaces, and art trail organisers and civic bodies commissioning public art.
  • Commercial brands: Design studios, advertising agencies, and companies looking for bespoke campaign artwork.
  • Editorial & publishing: Magazines, book publishers, and digital media outlets requiring distinct, engaging illustration.
