Common areas are the first and last thing tenants and their guests experience in your building. A generic lobby with painted drywall communicates nothing. A thoughtfully designed lobby with custom wall graphics communicates quality, character, and care — and tenants notice. 

Wall graphics are one of the highest-impact, most cost-efficient ways to transform these spaces. 

What Changes When You Add Wall Graphics 

The transformation goes beyond aesthetics. Property managers who have invested in common area graphics report: 

• Higher tenant satisfaction scores in surveys 

• Improved perception of building quality and management 

• Faster lease-up in renovated buildings 

• Reduced tenant turnover, particularly among design-conscious companies 

The investment in common area design signals to tenants that management cares about the details — and that signal carries through the entire relationship. 

Lobby Transformation: The Entry Statement 

The lobby wall graphic is the single highest-impact location in any commercial building. Options range from: 

• Full-wall photographic murals — cityscape, nature, or abstract imagery at building scale 

• Branded graphics for single-tenant buildings — logo, mission statement, or brand narrative 

• Dimensional-look graphics — designs that create a sense of depth and texture 

• Multi-panel abstract art — commissioned or curated imagery that establishes a design identity 

Elevator Lobbies, Corridors, and Break Rooms 

The lobby is just the beginning. MetWest has completed wall graphic transformations in: 

• Elevator lobbies — turning transition spaces into design moments 

• Corridors — wayfinding graphics that are also beautiful 

• Conference rooms — feature walls that elevate the meeting experience 

• Break rooms and cafeterias — energetic graphics that make employees want to spend time there
