Wall graphics as a form of interior décor have grown in popularity with many interior design professionals and homeowners. These colorful and artistic displays are most often designed for impact and come in the form of vinyl wall stickers, wall decals, wall stencils, and removable wall art. Wall graphics can be pre-made and consist of words, images, and abstract designs to suit any style.

The most common form of wall graphics are pre-made vinyl or plastic stickers and decals, which come in various shapes and sizes. Other wall art includes hand-painted stencils. Wall graphics and stickers that depict popular phrases, images, or inspirational verses can be combined with existing art like paintings and prints. Wall graphic art can also be used with metal wall hangings and sconces for an interesting effect.

For more impact, homeowners sometimes choose large, energetic graphics. These are most often vinyl wall stickers in popular sports, fantasy, or entertainment themes. Wall graphic designs can also be made out of family photos and grouped on any wall for a unique display.

In addition to home use, wall graphics are often a component of commercial business design. Office buildings and retail spaces sometimes use wall graphic art, words, and stencils to mark specific departments so that customers can find their way through hallways and floors. An example of this is the wall graphics used in health care facilities and schools to let visitors know where to find certain areas like bathrooms, cafeterias, or waiting rooms.

Commercial wall graphics are also commonly used for advertising and promotional purposes. Businesses may use a series of eye-catching wall art to display sales and ads in a prominent way in a main lobby of a building. Wall graphics also may be used in retail locations and smaller office spaces to create a certain atmosphere for employees and shoppers. This is often seen in retail fashion stores and large retail markets.
