Murals in Toulon
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. In Toulon, Giulia paints for old-town houses, Mourillon villas, harbour restaurants and hotels. Giulia travels easily to Toulon to paint: you send her a photo of the wall and she draws the sketch straight onto it, so you see the mural in place before she travels.
What Giulia brings to 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.
Giulia also paints live in Toulon. For a seaside wedding, a summer evening or a birthday, 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 400 € for a performance. For a wedding, see live wedding painting in the Var.
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 fully painted, around 2 000 €.
Hotels, restaurants and shops
Harbour restaurants, cafes, shops, salons, windows and commercial facades. A hand-painted mural belongs to this place alone, and it is what people remember about it. 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.
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 Toulon?
Giulia Dal Bon charges by the 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 does it work to have a wall painted in Toulon?
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 Toulon, and sets the date with you. She then comes and paints the mural at your place in Toulon, by brush, and the place stays open while she works.
What does a mural quote in Toulon cover?
The square-metre price Giulia Dal Bon quotes includes the paint and materials, the first two sketches and the protective varnish as a finish. While she paints, you tell her what you think, and she adjusts. 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.
Can I see the design before saying yes?
Yes. Before any agreement, Giulia shows you the sketch on a photo of your wall, with a detailed price. Two free sketches are proposed to you before you confirm, and she adjusts them with you.
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?
The wall stays intact. Acrylic bonds to a painted or plastered wall, which keeps its finish and needs only a light preparation. And if you change your mind in ten years, a roller of paint covers it.
Can a view of Toulon be painted on a wall?
Yes, and the city lends itself to it. The roadstead and the ships, the ochre facades of the old centre, Puget’s Atlantes on the town hall, and Mont Faron rising above the city. Giulia Dal Bon paints all of it with a brush. As a line drawing, the view falls under the 150 € per sqm rate; with colour and shadow, it starts at 250 € per sqm. Free quote within 48 hours.
What subject works well for a mural in Toulon?
The subjects that work here: 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?
A graffiti artist works with spray cans, and the line is fast and graphic. Giulia Dal Bon paints with a brush: the layers go on one after another, which allows gradients, fine detail and trompe l’oeil. A mural in Toulon becomes a painting made directly on the wall, by hand. While she works, people take the time to watch and take photos.
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. 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?
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?
An acrylic 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. In Toulon, on a façade exposed to traffic, Giulia can also propose an anti-pollution paint, which turns part of the nitrogen oxides under daylight. The option is priced in the quote.

Homes and villas
Villas, apartments, and bedrooms where the mural can live with strong light, larger volumes, and refined materials while staying understated.
Hotels, restaurants, and boutiques

Where Giulia works in Toulon
In Toulon, 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 also paints the kitchen, the bathroom, the entrance, the hallway and the stairwell. A ceiling is painted the same way, from the scaffold. Outside, on the exterior facade and the garden wall, she works in quartz paint. She also paints on a mobile panel, to carry the painting elsewhere.
In a restaurant, a pizzeria, a café or a bar in Toulon, she paints the dining-room wall, and service carries on while she works. In a boutique and a shop, the painted window is seen from the street, and the shutter stays painted after closing. For a hotel and a B&B, she paints the entrance hall and the rooms, one by one. 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 wall you face while you wait. For an office and a showroom, she paints reception, the corridor and the meeting room. A vaulted cellar is painted too, from the wall to the vault.
In the old town, Mourillon, Le Port, Saint-Jean-du-Var and Cap Brun, a photo of the wall is enough to start: Giulia draws the sketch onto it, and your idea comes together with her.
The subject is decided together. A landscape opens up the far end of a room, a floral or botanical motif runs along a wall, a painted sky fills a ceiling, a perspective trompe-l’oeil draws a window on a solid wall. Giulia also paints figures, animals, lettering, painted signs, and reproduces an existing work when you ask her to.
Possible subjects in Toulon: Mont Faron rising above the city, the roadstead and the ships, the ochre facades of the old centre, puget’s Atlantes on the town hall. A trompe-l’oeil window, a botanical motif and a painted sky work just as well.
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 Toulon: mural artist, muralist, wall artist, decorative painter.
Toulon brings together an old town under full renovation, the naval harbour and the seaside districts of the Mourillon, with the Hôtel des Arts and its painted facade at the heart of the city.
Giulia also travels to Six-Fours-les-Plages, Hyères, Sanary-sur-Mer, Manosque, Bandol, Forcalquier, Moustiers-Sainte-Marie and Sisteron.
