80-foot mural features digitally printed adhesives

[B3DigiGrafx] Rancho Cucamonga, Calif., U.S.A.

Digitally printed adhesives have made the wall mural a practical form of storytelling once again. Using large-format printing techniques, B3DigiGrafx turned signage on its side and created an 80-foot mural as an historical timeline of the University of California, Riverside (UCR). The bulk of the content was printed on a vinyl adhesive wallpaper background, with acrylic and Sintra panels elevated several inches off the background. These panels can be easily updated in the years ahead. One of the key design requirements was the ability to change and update the mural’s content as the UCR story evolves. The project was installed in a main corridor for students, staff, faculty and campus visitors to provide for maximum visibility.
