Identify the light sources first
Show windows, ceiling lighting and wall lights in a room photograph. View the sample straight on and at an angle. The aim is to decide whether you enjoy how the surface appearance changes with the light direction.
Keep the image constant when comparing
Changing the design, scale and texture at once makes the differences difficult to judge. Compare silk and matte using the same image at a similar size. Choose the surface first, then return to the crop.
Look beyond a single highlight
Examine light, dark and detailed parts of the image. Strong display lighting can differ from your home. View the material in the evening using the lamps you actually use.
Our silk material specifications
Premium quality, a vandal-resistant surface and UV printing. We print seamless murals up to 5 m wide. Material rolls are 50 m long; mural dimensions and cropping are agreed for the wall.
Check before ordering
- A photo showing windows and lights
- The same image for texture comparisons
- A sample viewed straight on and at an angle
Choose silk for its appearance in your actual lighting, not for an eye-catching highlight in a photograph.
