Richmond, VA
"All Spice" Office Mural
Nestled in the historic Sauer Center of Downtown Richmond, the reclaimed Virginia School Supply Building is making new memories as a modern office space. My sole objective: design and paint a mural that would breathe a fun energy into the workspace. It was affectionately named for the Sauer area's spice and smell.
The idea started as random doodles from my head (top left)
​
The wall dimensions were 12.5ft wide x 8ft high with 3 wrapping surfaces.
The proximity of the elevator doors made it impossible to use a projector, I needed to grid the design.
I used a scale of 1ft = 100px so I could easily grid the correct design in Illustrator and transfer it using the scale
​
Big thanks to my painting buddy Kris Blake!
The final digital design
Breaking apart the design in a layered grid
It makes a fun photo backdrop with my favorite cardinal or inspiration for some nail art!
Around the corner, I painted a dynamic wave for a soothing reading nook.
