“It used to be that you put up a yard sign and construction trailer and augmented that with other forms of marketing,” says Christa McCall, graphic designer for The Lawrence Group, an architectural, design and development firm headquartered in St. Louis, Missouri. “Now, it is almost the reverse. You install wallscapes, building wraps, banners, fencescapes and window graphics and augment those with a yard sign and construction trailer.
Building wraps are a huge driving force in marketing a construction or development project. They enable you to use the building as a billboard for the duration of the construction project right on through the leasing phase. They capture the public’s attention and drive traffic to your website.”

“Outsized building wraps and banners are an essential part of the advertising campaign. Fifty percent of customer response comes from a loft or condo development’s signage. It’s what they remember when they are surveyed as to how they heard about the project,” states Gretchen Floresca, Principal of Werremeyer|Floresca, a St. Louis-based creative firm.

“They were able to guide us through the process, coaching the graphics group on how to translate their carpet patterns into custom wallpaper. We went through many rounds of samples to get the color right and Commerce Color was so patient with us. The final product looked fabulous and Milliken has had countless inquiries about the wallcovering.” Principal Catherine Severson, Q Studio, an architectural firm based in Chicago.

"LEGO had a 'color universe' with which we had to work. LEGO Group was extremely happy with everything we and Commerce Color did, and felt that the color quality of the murals was incredible--the best of the LEGOLAND Discovery Centres to date.
Working with Commerce Color was incredible. They produced vibrant colors and excellent quality in all of their custom wallpaper graphics. And when we had a tight deadline issue and didn't provide them with artwork for one of the walls until the last minute, they turned the project around quickly and the mural was installed in time for the opening. They really contributed to the success of this project." Rich Hill, designer at Sally Corporation

There's nothing sexier in the large format signage business than an oversized wallscape that reaches into a busy central business district with a crisp, clean and targeted message to the masses.

Such is the case with our most recent wallscape printing project. This spectacular outdoor display is located in the heart of the Dallas downtown business districts. It's just a stone's throw from the hub of the Dallas downtown mass transit station.

The building wrap towers over an enormous amount of pedestrian and automobile traffic. It's clearly visible from the west end entertainment and restaurant district. It dominates the view from downtown office towers, the DART West Side Transfer Center as well as light rail lines, major office commute boulevards and convention center traffic.
Big, Bigger and Biggest Wallscapes
Big Media, who manages big branding opportunities in the Dallas area with supergraphics, trolley and digital displays bills this location as the largest outdoor display in the United States. It's a southwest facing wall that measures an astounding 108 feet tall by 213 feet wide.

The wallscape was printed in four panels measuring approximately 108 feet by 52 feet. Once the printing was completed we unfurled the monster building wrap in a nearby parking lot for a final inspection of overall color accuracy and precise finishing dimension before shipped it to Dallas for installation.

Each panel when rolled and ready to ship weighed in excess of 700 lbs. That's a lot of vinyl!
