Murals in Cuneo

Cuneo lives year-round, beyond tourism, and that changes everything: murals are decided in any season and budgets are those of families and shopkeepers. Arcade shops, professional offices, flats and valley farmhouses. Giulia paints outdoors all year round, on a fully dry surface and in mild weather. To start, a photo of the wall and its measurements are enough: Giulia draws the sketch straight onto it, then comes to paint on site.

What Giulia brings to Cuneo. Giulia is a painter, trained at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan. She exhibits her paintings in art galleries and also paints on walls. She paints with a brush, in odourless acrylic indoors and quartz paint outdoors, and Corriere della Sera, Domus and Sky Arte have covered her work. The wall is her favourite canvas because it truly becomes part of a place, a unique work made to tell your story.

Cuneo through stone, arcades, and calmer light

Here a mural can accompany places where material already has a strong presence and where the pace of the space asks for painting that is precise, warm, and well balanced.

Houses and villas

Bedrooms, living rooms, stairwells, entrances, hallways and ceilings. Example: a children’s bedroom of 6 sqm in a simple motif, around 900 €.

Hotels, restaurants and shops

Restaurant rooms, hotel bedroom walls, shop windows, shutters, lobbies and offices. A hand-painted mural belongs to this place alone, and it is what people remember about it. Example: a shop window under the arcades of 8 sqm in a simple motif, around 1 200 €.

Facades and exterior walls

Giulia paints outdoors all year round, on a fully dry wall and in mild weather, so the paint holds through frost. For a facade visible from the street, the owner’s or the building association’s approval is usually enough, plus a notice to the town hall in a protected zone. From 150 € per sqm, plus scaffolding if needed.

What Giulia brings to Cuneo

Cuneo was founded between 14 March and 23 June 1198 by men from the surrounding lands, weary of feudal rule, on a wedge-shaped plateau at the confluence of the Stura and the Gesso: hence the name. The town keeps its fortress plan, and around the mid-nineteenth century Piazza Vittorio opened, today Piazza Galimberti, with the arcades linking it to Via Roma.

Cuneo is therefore a town born of a collective decision, with a date and a shape. Giulia Dal Bon paints there with a brush, in the flats under the arcades, the offices, the restaurants and the shops, using odourless acrylic and two sketches included. From 150 € per sqm, free quote within 48 hours.

Giulia also paints live in Cuneo. For a wedding, a birthday or a company evening, she sets up her easel and the painting takes shape in front of your guests, signed and taken home the same evening. From 950 € for a wedding, from 900 € for a company evening, from 400 € for a performance at a concert. See live painting →

Your questions, before commissioning

A photo of the wall, its approximate dimensions and the idea you have in mind are enough to receive a quote.

How much does a mural cost in Cuneo?

Giulia Dal Bon’s price is per square metre: 150 € for a line drawing or a simple motif, 250 € for a fully painted subject, 350 € for trompe-l’oeil or a ceiling. A small mural in a bedroom costs less than a facade that needs preparation and scaffolding. The quote is free: see all prices.

How do I get a mural painted in my home in Cuneo?

Write to Giulia Dal Bon on WhatsApp or by email, even if the idea is still vague: she replies within 48 hours. Send her a photo of the wall to be painted, she draws a sketch straight onto your photo, you tell her what you think, and the first two sketches are free. Once the sketch is approved, she sends you the quote, from 150 € per sqm in Cuneo, and sets the date with you. She then comes and paints the mural at your place in Cuneo, by brush, and the place stays open while she works.

What does the price of a mural in Cuneo include?

The square-metre price Giulia Dal Bon quotes includes the paint and materials, the first two sketches, corrections during the work and the protective varnish as a finish. Added to the quote, when needed, are the scaffolding for a facade and travel costs, agreed together. The quote is free and arrives within 48 hours; a deposit of about 100 € for materials confirms the date, and the balance is settled at the end.

What kind of mural works well in Cuneo?

In Cuneo, simple, light designs, on the budgets of families and shopkeepers rather than second homes. Everything is painted with a brush, in odourless acrylic.

Does it damage the wall?

Giulia paints on the existing plaster after a simple clean. If the wall is cracked or damp, she says so before the quote and explains what needs fixing. An acrylic mural can be painted over later like any wall paint.

Can I see the design before saying yes?

Yes, always. Giulia sends a digital sketch laid over the photo of your wall, with a detailed quote. The first two sketches are free, and she adjusts them with you.

Can a view of Cuneo be painted on a wall?

Yes, and it is a subject that sits well on a large wall. The arcades running the length of Via Roma, the open Piazza Galimberti, and the chain of the Maritime Alps closing the horizon. Giulia Dal Bon paints the scene with a brush, at the scale of the wall: 150 € per sqm as a line drawing, 250 € fully painted. Free quote within 48 hours.

What subject works well for a mural in Cuneo?

The most requested subjects: floral and botanical work for bedrooms and living rooms, landscapes for living spaces and terraces, trompe l’oeil for facades and ceilings. Everything is drawn to measure: Giulia offers two free sketches from your idea, and you refine it together until the subject is yours.

What is the difference between a hand-painted mural and spray-painted graffiti?

They are two different crafts. A graffiti artist works with spray cans, with a fast gesture and a graphic finish. A brush-painted mural is built layer by layer, which allows gradients, fine detail and trompe l’oeil: it is a painting made directly on the wall. Indoors, Giulia uses odourless acrylic. And while she paints, people take the time to watch: a brush at work is a show in itself. The choice depends on the finish you are after.

What do you call an artist who paints on walls?

A mural artist, a muralist, a wall artist or a decorative painter, and the art itself is called mural painting or wall art. Some come from graffiti and work with spray cans; Giulia Dal Bon comes from painting: trained at the Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan, she exhibits her paintings in art galleries and paints commissioned murals with a brush. To have one painted, send her a photo of your wall: free quote within 48 hours.

Does a mural hold up outdoors in Cuneo?

Yes, with surface preparation and paints made for outdoor use. Outdoors, Giulia paints all year round, on a fully dry surface and in mild weather. Before having an outdoor wall painted in Cuneo, the mural paint and durability guide answers questions on paint, surface and lifespan.

Do I need permission to paint a facade in Cuneo?

An interior wall can be painted freely. For a facade visible from the street, you usually need the owner’s or the building association’s approval, and a notice to the town hall if the building is in a protected area. Giulia explains the process before starting.

How long does it take to paint a mural?

It depends on the surface, the level of detail and how easy the wall is to reach. Giulia gives the timing with the quote, within 48 hours, and gives plenty of notice if the schedule moves. The place keeps running while she works: the acrylic is odourless.

How long does a mural last?

Painted in acrylic by Giulia Dal Bon, a mural lasts a lifetime indoors: the paint becomes part of the plaster and lives as long as the wall. Outdoors, quartz paint is made for facades, and an anti-salt or anti-pollution varnish extends it further. And if one day you want a change, it can be painted over like any wall paint.

The mural can stay essential or become more narrative. What matters is the relationship between wall, materials, palette, and everyday use of the place.

Homes and villas

Homes, bedrooms, and dining rooms where painting can bring a calm, warm, embodied presence while keeping its simplicity.

Hotels, restaurants, and boutiques

Restaurants, hotels, and hospitality spaces can use the mural to bring memory, atmosphere, and a more personal visual signature.

Where Giulia works in Cuneo

In Cuneo, for a private client, in a house, a villa, a second home or a flat, Giulia paints on an interior wall : the living room, the children’s bedroom and the bedroom. She paints the kitchen, the bathroom, the entrance, the hallway and the stairwell just as readily. The ceiling is painted too: that is the €350 per sqm band, with trompe-l’oeil. On the exterior facade and the garden wall, quartz paint takes over from acrylic: it is made for facades. A mobile panel is painted separately, and moves with you.

In a restaurant, a pizzeria, a café or a bar in Cuneo, the room stays open while she paints: the acrylic is odourless. In a boutique and a shop, window and shutter are painted by hand, and change with the seasons. In a hotel and a B&B, she paints reception, the stairwell and the bedrooms. In a hair salon, a spa and a gym, she paints the treatment-room walls and the reception area. In a medical practice, a waiting room and a nursery, she paints the waiting room and the corridor leading to it. In an office and a showroom, she paints the wall the teams walk past every day. A cellar is painted too, right down its stairs.

The subject comes from you. Giulia draws a landscape, a floral or botanical motif, a painted sky on a ceiling, a perspective trompe-l’oeil. She paints figures and animals, letters signs and lettering by hand, and reproduces a work you love.

Possible subjects in Cuneo: the chain of the Maritime Alps closing the horizon, the arcades running the length of Via Roma, the open Piazza Galimberti. And anywhere, a trompe-l’oeil window, botanicals and a painted sky find their place.

Very different words lead to the same search: mural, wall mural, artistic painting on a wall, wall decoration, mural decoration, decorative painting. Trompe-l’oeil is one form of it, a hand-painted wall and a drawing on a wall are others, and some look for a painting made directly on the wall. Behind those words, one craft in Cuneo: mural artist, muralist, wall artist, decorative painter.

Cuneo lives year-round, beyond tourism: shops under the arcades, professional offices, family flats and valley farmhouses.

Giulia also travels to Biella, Saluzzo, Domodossola, Fossano, Verbania, Mondovì, Stresa and Cherasco.
