How it works
Four steps, and the quote is free.
Send a photo of the wall
A photo and rough dimensions are enough. Tell me the city, the type of place, and whether the wall is indoors or outdoors.
Get a sketch and a quote
I send you a digital sketch over the photo of your wall, with a detailed quote. The first two sketches are free, and corrections are included.
I paint the wall
From 150 € per sqm for a simple motif, more if the design is very detailed. We set the date together.
Picture the mural
Each project begins with the surface, the light, the proportions, the circulation, and the way the place is lived.
Can I see the design before saying yes ?
Yes. Before any agreement, Giulia shows you the project as an image on your own wall, with a detailed price. Two free sketches are proposed to you before the project is confirmed, and corrections are included.
What kind of mural works well in Toulon ?
In Toulon, sea and Mediterranean subjects in Mourillon homes, and dining-room decors in the harbour restaurants. Everything is painted with a brush, in odourless acrylic.
Does it damage the wall ?
No damage. Acrylic bonds to a painted or plastered wall, with no stripping and no heavy undercoat. And if you change your mind in ten years, a roller of paint covers it.
Toulon, between the old town and the Mourillon
Here a mural enters a historic centre in full revival and seaside districts where the light is strong all year round.
Houses and villas
Bedrooms, kitchens, hallways, entrances, stairwells and ceilings, from old-town houses to Mourillon villas. Example: an 8 sqm bedroom wall in a detailed design, around 2 000 €.
Hotels, restaurants and shops
Harbour restaurants, cafes, shops, salons, windows and commercial facades. In a market where competitors look alike, a mural is one of the few things that cannot be copied. From 150 € per sqm.
Facades and exterior walls
Sea air and strong sun test the facades: quartz paint, made for outdoor walls, with anti-salt varnish on request. A facade visible from the street generally needs the owner's or building association's agreement. From 150 € per sqm, plus scaffolding if needed.
A mural for this place
Toulon's old town is in full revival: the renovation programme launched in 2006 covers twelve blocks over some twenty-three hectares, and the district now carries the Quartier Culturel et Créatif label. At its heart, the Hôtel des Arts, a former sub-prefecture built in the early 20th century and now an art centre, received a facade entirely painted by the artist Alexandre Benjamin Navet, winner of the Grand Prix Design Parade Toulon in 2017. Requests come from old-town houses, Mourillon villas, harbour restaurants and hotels looking for a distinctive feature. Giulia travels easily to Toulon to paint: she comes to see the wall in person, or works first from photos and measurements.
What Giulia brings to Mural artist in Toulon. 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. Corriere della Sera, Domus and Sky Arte have covered her work, and her mural of more than twenty metres dedicated to Gaber and Jannacci stands in Milan. The wall is her favourite canvas because it truly becomes part of a place, a unique work made to tell your story.

Ideas for spaces
The project can stay simple or take on a stronger wall presence. It depends on scale, function, circulation, and the way the wall is seen.
Homes and villas
Villas, apartments, and bedrooms where the mural can live with strong light, larger volumes, and refined materials without becoming showy.
Hotels, restaurants, and boutiques
Hotels, restaurants, boutiques, and image-led spaces where painting can become a very recognizable and immediately elegant presence.
Very site-specific project
The project can stay simple or take on a stronger wall presence. It depends on scale, function, circulation, and the way the wall is seen.

Frequently asked questions about murals in Toulon
How much does a mural cost in Toulon?
The price is per square metre: 150 € for a simple motif, 250 € for a detailed design, 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.
What subject works well for a mural in Toulon?
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 Toulon?
Yes, with surface preparation and quartz paint, made for outdoor walls. In Toulon the sun is strong and the air is salty: an anti-salt varnish is added on request.
Do I need permission to paint a facade in Toulon?
For an interior wall, no. 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 and the level of detail: a simple motif in a bedroom takes a few days, a large composition or a facade longer. 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?
An acrylic mural lasts for decades 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.
