Our World of Mercator’s Projection Map Mural celebrates the legacy of the C16th cartographer Gerardus Mercator. Mercator is most famous for his production of a map in 1569 that was based on a new projection which represented sailing courses of constant bearing as straight lines. Our World of Mercator’s Projection Map Mural has a beautiful vintage look, with soft pastel colouring that will completely transform your interior décor in an instant.

Our most popular product, medium weight wallpaper is a great quality wallpaper for general use around the home. Providing excellent print quality with good durability makes this a great choice.
Lightweight Paper
Even though this is our lowest grade paper, the weight and print quality is still impressive. The paper itself is just slightly thinner than regular wallpaper, making it suitable for homes, lower budgets and medium term solutions.

Who Can Install?
Our murals are produced to make installation as simple as possible, meaning fitting can be carried out by anyone with competent DIY skills, or by a painter and decorator who is used to hanging wallpaper.
Tools and Adhesives
You simply need standard wallpaper hanging tools including a sharp knife, roller or paint brush, and plastic squeegee to smooth out your wallpaper. A standard ready mixed wallpaper adhesive is required to paste the wallpaper to the wall, and we can supply this to you if required.
How Wallpaper is Supplied and Installed
Our wallpaper is supplied in multiple strips (drops) on a roll, each up to 1.2 metres wide and to your mural’s height. Please note that each mural will have an extra bleed area (white border) that is designed to protect the edges of your mural during transportation, and which needs to be trimmed off during installation.
Each drop is numbered so you know exactly how the mural fits together, and the order in which to hang your mural. Simply start from one side of the wall and continue to hang each drop of wallpaper, matching the design as you move along the wall until the mural is complete.
We also print your wallpaper 1-2% larger than the dimensions you give us to allow for adequate excess paper for trimming. For a full and more detailed hanging guide please view our how to install page.
How wide are the wallpaper strips?
Our wallpaper strips come in 1.2m wide drops. This is slightly wider than normal wallpaper which makes the hanging process quicker and gives a better final finish.
How will my wallpaper arrive?
Your wallpaper will arrive on a roll that is sectioned off into vertical drops that fit your wall height. These drops are simply matched up next to each other on the wall to create the full finished mural.
How will i know what my mural looks like before ordering?
When you send an order enquiry to us, we will come back to you within 24 hours with an email including a proof image showing how your wallpaper mural will look on your wall. If you need any changes making at this point then you simply need to let us know, and if you are happy with it and wish to proceed then payment can be made and we will print your wallpaper right away.
Can I customise my mural?
Most of our wallpapers are customisable. We can alter colours, make images black and white, add company logos, text and much more. If you would like to customise your mural then please do not hesitate to contact us with your requirements and our designers can help.
Are the colour seen on screen accurate?
The colours shown on screen are accurate as to the final printed product yes. There can be some variation between computer monitors which is worth bearing in mind due to brightness and colour intensity, however this is usually very minimal. If you have any specific concerns about colour matching, we can provide a printed sample for you before you make the final order.
