Wall Murals, Decals, Sports Themed Interiors

There are plenty of things in life that we grow out of with passing time. But sports seems take the exact direction as we get older. Despite our busy lives, hectic schedules and endless chores, we all find time to flip through the sports section and catch the highlights (at the very least) of the big game. While sports themed interiors with fabulous wall murals are often relegated to the kids’ room, there is no reason why adults cannot borrow a bit of inspiration from them! Whether you love basketball, football, soccer or baseball, there is always room for showcasing that passion in a sophisticated, stylish fashion.

Large wall murals bring with them a sense of drama and also instantly reveal your taste in sports and probably even your team loyalties. While living rooms generally do not house large sports decals, they seem to be far more common in the home gym, basements that are turned into man caves and home theaters. Of course, majority homeowners still keep them largely confined to the kids’ bedroom. As you flip through the many wall murals here, just remember that they look equally appealing in the rooms of grown-ups as well –

Painting a Grand Visual

There is a simple reason why most people tend to turn towards wall murals – to make a bold visual statement that is simply unmistakable. This is often a strategy that works very well with the kids. Since most of them are uber-passionate about their favorite sports team or superstar, it is pretty easy to keep them happy with the appropriate wall mural. Of course, the mural that you chose must always fit in seamlessly with both the theme of the room and its color scheme. A large mural with contrasting colors looks ungainly and hard to pull off.

If you are going for a giant wall mural for a young teen’s room, then it is best to pick a large black and white print. Since, the kid would soon want a more adult look for his room that employs cool neutral tones, the transition will be both seamless and cost-effective. Remember that creating a dedicated theme with an extensive wall mural means that you are more are less committed to the look for a while. So, it is best to carefully think before you pull the trigger on this one.

Changing with the Times

We see plenty of kids’ rooms that feature extensive murals, a very specific color scheme and custom-made decor that is crafted to suit the chosen sports theme. While this is great and looks very pretty, it might not be the most practical or economically viable options. Kids can be pretty finicky and soon you are stuck with an ankle biter who is bored with the look of his room or has switched from baseball to football! Wall decals provide you with an easy solution to the problem. Just add or remove a few life-size decals with easy to instantly follow the trendy look of the season. (Yup, even sports trends change)

Simple and Understated

Wall murals, decals and stickers need not always be drenched in bright colors. A more restrained and tasteful approach works equally effectively. These cool murals are perfect for teen rooms that are often difficult to design and take plenty of effort. With the Sochi 2014 Winter Olympic Games just around the corner, maybe now is the perfect time to add some winter sports inspiration as well to your interiors. A touch of ice skating, a jaw-dropping decal of snowboarding or even a wall mural that pays tribute to your favorite ice hockey player; show you support for the games and join in on all the fun with the perfect sports wall mural.
