floor murals on sports field

Artistic playgrounds are the latest trend. Basketball, soccer, tennis... we work on all types of surfaces to create unique frescoes.

We can take charge of the entire project, from artistic direction and artist selection to production and communication. But if required, we can also intervene solely for the realization.

Case study: murals on a basketball court in Clichy.

active design floor active design

Another growing trend is active design. Ground frescoes that combine signage and urban art to transform public space into a zone of interaction.

In Blois, for example, visuals painted on the pavement were designed to capture the attention of motorists and encourage them to slow down. A concrete and creative way of influencing behavior.

We also create floor frescoes for signage purposes. The idea is to guide, orient and structure the space in a visual and impactful way.

In Clichy-sous-Bois, for example, we collaborated with L'Oréal and Label Expérience on an incubator project. Here, there was no artistic dimension, but a graphic intervention designed to dress the floor and accompany its use.

floor murals in a parking lot

Ground frescoes are not confined to playgrounds or public spaces. They can also be found in more unexpected places, such as parking lots.

floor murals for children

We also support participative projects in schools, where children become the artists of their own living environment. This is the case at École Saint-Joseph, where pupils imagined and painted a collective murals under the guidance of artist Manon Charpak.

After several weeks of preparation, they transformed an ordinary wall into a colorful murals inspired by the sporting disciplines and energy of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games.

A project that shows how art, even on the scale of a schoolyard, can become a real lever for expression, pride and social cohesion.

floor signage murals : instructions for use

In general, floor murals projects involve several major stages:

  • Project study (site visit, substrate study, measurements, accessibility, artistic brief...).
  • Quotes (design, materials, logistics, production, copyright assignment, etc.).
  • Artistic direction (moodboard, choice of artists...).
  • Sketch (back and forth, final validation...).
  • Intervention (prior authorization, preparation, protection, tracing, floor painting, cleaning, etc.).
  • End (acceptance report, assignment of copyright, balance, etc.).

Example of a project on a basketball court with Jordane Saget in Paris.

What's the budget for a floor murals ?

The budget for a floor murals depends on several key parameters:

The artist: budget varies according to artistic profile. An original creation signed by a recognized artist will not cost the same as a graphic adaptation or an existing illustration.

The surface area to be painted: the larger the murals , the larger the "painting" part of the estimate.

The desired lifespan: for a long-lasting murals , we use more technical materials (road paint, two-component paint, cold coating). For a temporary project, you can opt for biodegradable paint or chalk.

Working conditions: certain constraints can have an impact on the budget, such as working in winter, difficult access or tight deadlines.

To give you an idea, the average price of a floor murals is between €80 and €300 per m² painted, depending on the nature of the project.
