# Denim wall murals: combining relief with image scale

Denim has a visible surface resembling woven fabric. Image and texture are perceived together, so examine both the full design and a small section containing the details that matter most.

## Start with the focal element

Decide what should attract attention: a large leaf, architecture, ornament or a colour transition. Ask to see that area at the intended print size. Relief looks different close up and from a sofa, so check both distances.

## Use the same design for comparisons

When choosing between denim and a quieter surface, keep the image unchanged. The same detail makes texture differences easier to judge. Look at fine lines and small contrasting elements: do you like how they interact with the relief?

## Consider the room scale

Mark furniture and the visible wall area on a photo. Do not automatically enlarge the image to the biggest possible version. More open background can sometimes show the texture while keeping the main subject readable.

## Check your order specifications

Our denim has fabric backing, UV printing and a working print width up to 5 m. Any subject can be chosen from a high-quality source image. We agree mural dimensions and any joins before printing.
