Road, Ground & Pathway Murals
HAPPY DECAY’s speciality is painted ground, pathway and road murals. A ground mural is similar to a wall mural though different types of paints are used for durability and their non-slip properties.
If you want a ground mural for your pathway or ground area, please feel free to get in contact and we can discuss your exact needs or if you just have some questions about it.
The paints used for a ground, pathway, road or laneway mural need to have some form of anti-slip component, sometimes this can be as an additive or already mixed with the paint. Depending on the type of traffic whether it be by foot or vehicle or a combination will help determine the paint required.
Ground and road murals are a good way to activate public spaces to encourage usage as well as change the awareness of the space.
For example, you can see the ground mural below painted on a footpath pedestrian area in Bendigo to help promote an upcoming art exhibition at the Bendigo Art Gallery. The footpath mural also activated the space and people enjoyed visiting this part of the park.
Pathway Mural Artist
The footpath mural helped pedestrians as well as motorists become aware of the crossing area.
Road Murals
Other areas for painting murals are on the footpath and even road murals. Both these services need particular preparation before painting. In particular road, surfaces need extensive cleaning to remove any oil as this will prevent the mural paint from sticking to the surface.
Placemaking Ground Murals & Walls
An extension of painting road/ground murals, footpaths and laneways are wall murals. This helps to activate a space even more. Taking the murals from the ground up onto the walls creates an even more engaging space.
