How it works
Four steps, no commitment before the quote.
Send me a photo of the wall
A photo and rough measurements are enough. Tell me the city, the type of space, and whether the wall is indoors or outdoors.
Receive a sketch and a quote
I send you a digital sketch over the photo of your wall, with a detailed quote. Free of charge.
I paint the wall
From €400 per m² for a simple motif, more for very detailed work. We set the date together.
Practical questions before commissioning a mural
The questions that come up most often.
Can I see the design before deciding?
Yes. Before any agreement, Giulia shows you the project as an image on your own wall, with the detailed price. Several sketches are proposed to you before the project is confirmed.
What type of mural works well in Santa Margherita Ligure?
In Liberty-style villas overlooking the Gulf of Tigullio, a botanical motif or a trompe l'oeil with a sea view fit well with the elegance of the place. Everything is hand-painted with acrylic colours, no wallpaper or printing involved.
Will it damage the wall?
No damage at all. Acrylic paint adheres to an already painted or plastered wall, with no stripping or heavy primer needed. And if you change your mind in ten years, a coat of paint is enough to cover it.
Santa Margherita Ligure, on the Gulf of Tigullio
Here, a mural works when it plays off the Liberty-style elegance of the historic villas and hotels facing the sea.
Villas and residences
Living rooms, bedrooms, entrances of Liberty-style villas overlooking the gulf. Example: an 8 m² living room wall in a detailed subject, around €4,800.
Hotels and luxury venues
Historic Liberty-style hotels, restaurants and seafront venues near the marina. Example: a 12 m² hotel wall in a detailed subject, around €7,200.
Facades and exterior walls
The sea air calls for specific surface preparation. Many historic villas are protected. From €400 per m², plus scaffolding if needed.
A mural for this place
Santa Margherita Ligure has Roman roots and was long exposed to Saracen pirate raids, until the 10th century; it then became a fief of the Fieschi family until 1229, when it passed under Genoa. The town took shape in the early 19th century from the union of the old hamlets of Pescino and Corte, first known as Porto Napoleone; the current name was established in 1863 by a decree of Victor Emmanuel II. From the second half of the 19th century, the town became an elegant tourist destination, with Liberty-style hotels and villas that still define the seafront today. The marina holds over 300 berths, protected by a 300-metre pier. Requests come from private villas, historic hotels and seafront venues, often looking for a distinctive feature. Giulia travels easily to paint: she comes to see the wall in person, or works first from photos and measurements.

Frequently asked questions about murals in Santa Margherita Ligure
How much does a mural cost in Santa Margherita Ligure?
In Santa Margherita Ligure the rate reflects a high-end destination: €400 per square metre for a simple motif, €600 for a detailed subject, €800 for a trompe l'oeil or ceiling. The quote is free.
How long does the work take?
The timeline depends on the project: we discuss it together based on the wall and the subject. As a general guide, a simple motif takes less time than a very detailed subject or a large surface.
Does a mural hold up outdoors in Santa Margherita Ligure?
Yes, with surface preparation suited to the sea air. The best period for an exterior mural runs from spring to autumn.
Do I need permission to paint a facade?
For an interior wall, no. For a facade visible from the street, you generally need the owner's or building association's agreement, and a notice to the municipality if the building sits in a protected zone: many historic Liberty-style villas are protected. Giulia explains the process before starting.
Can a mural be changed or removed later?
Yes. A mural painted in acrylic can be painted over like any regular wall paint. It can also be reworked or extended later on.
