There are a lot of sports, both active and calmer. Active sports we can all observe at the Olympic Games, both winter and summer. Quiet sports, for example: chess or billiards, many do not consider sports at all.

Most often, photographic wallpapers depict such active sports as football, hockey, basketball, skiing and many others. The most popular in our country are, of course, football and hockey, no matter what sports you prefer, you also must follow these.

The most common sports depicted on the mural are:

  • Football.
  • Hockey.
  • Basketball.
  • Volleyball.
  • Wrestling species.
  • Ski views.
  • Water species.
  • Racing views.
  • Equestrian species.

As well as other sports, but they have to look.

Advice! If you can’t find the image you are interested in on the photo wallpaper or if you want any individual image, then it can be made to order in any print shop.

Not only sports distinguish between wallpapers, but also the pictures themselves.

For example:

  • Racing sport can be both automobile and motorcycle. It can be images of sports cars, racing motorcycles with and without a rider, and it can also be images of plots from any races.
  • Horse racing well suited for aesthetic and sophisticated people who love sports with beautiful and noble animals (see Horses wallpaper: how to use in the interior) Moreover, such images can ennoble the interior of any room, regardless of the design style of the room.

Sports images on murals are not necessarily plots from sports games. This can be photo portraits of famous or beloved athletes, images of sports fields or fields, as well as drawings of sports paraphernalia and fitness equipment.

For example: it can be a football, basketball or volleyball on any background. It can also be football, hockey goal or a basketball hoop.Often paraphernalia or athletes are depicted against a backdrop of beautiful natural landscapes, for example: mountain peaks or a forest against a river.

Football theme

Wall mural football is the most popular theme for images on sports photowalls, as there are most fans of this sport. Even people who prefer other sports do not remain indifferent during the world soccer championship.

Football is a very dynamic game and therefore it is worthwhile to carefully select image plots. For example: if you pick up soccer murals in the room of a future football player, you first need to decide on the place where they will be located and what function they will perform in the room.

In the recreation area, you should not post images with scenes from games or football players running with the ball, as such dynamics can interfere with relaxation and restful sleep. In this area, you should use photo wallpaper with the image of football paraphernalia or a football field.

It is also necessary to take into account the color of the photo wallpaper, relying on the lighting of the room, its size (see How to choose the size of the photo wallpaper) and the colors of the whole interior. It is very important that the tones and shades on the photo wallpaper are combined and repeated throughout the room, otherwise the photo wallpaper will look ridiculous.

Advice! To emphasize the football theme in the room, football accessories can help. For example: a soccer ball, cup or sports uniform on the wall.

Hockey theme

Hockey theme is also one of the most popular themes for photo wallpaper murals. Hockey is a more aggressive sport than the same football and therefore is suitable for the smallest number of people. Images of this sport are more suitable for single brutal men.

Although there are many girls who are fond of hockey, but they are definitely not glamorous gentle young ladies, rather these are active boys and photo wallpapers depicting hockey stories, paraphernalia or famous hockey players, will not look ridiculous in their interior.

Water theme

Wall murals depicting water sports are suitable for absolutely everyone, since there are a lot of them and they are very diverse.

It could be:

  • Gymnastics in the water.
  • Ball games in the water.
  • Swimming competitions.
  • Jumping from the tower.
  • Competitions on boats and kayaks.
  • Regattas.
  • Surfing.

You can still list many sports related to water, but each has its own preferences and tastes. But any water sport looks beautiful and aesthetically pleasing, especially since the water theme can be selected and combined with any style direction of the room’s interior.

Advice! The image with water sports must be selected, taking into account also the functionality of the room. For example: in the bedroom it is better to use calmer sports.

How to choose an image

Let's look at how to choose the right image for the photo wallpaper and its size so that they look harmonious in the interior of the room.

To do this, consider:

  • The functionality of the room - so it’s worth choosing calm subjects in the bedroom, without active dynamics of the image, so that in the evening, before going to bed, you can calmly relax and sleep well all night. Also, the color of the image affects the relaxation of the body and the psyche.
  • Lighting the room - so in a dark room where there is little light, it is worth choosing light and calm colors of the image, this will visually make the room brighter. If you want a certain picture and it is in a rather dark color scheme, then take care of additional lighting.
  • Room parameters - after all, a small room is easy to make visually smaller than the dark or very bright colors of the photo wallpaper image. Also, very large photographic webs can visually reduce the room.
  • The style of the room - not all images with a sports theme can fit any interior style. For example, images with football or hockey will only fit modern styles such as minimalism, hi-tech or loft.
  • The coloring of the room - the colors and shades of the entire color scheme of the room and the image on the photo wallpaper should be in harmony with each other. It is best if the shades of the picture will be repeated and duplicated in the interior and design of the room.

Important! Sports themes, if you chose sports wallpapers, should be present in the room itself. It can be emphasized with accessories or textiles.

How to choose a photo cloth

When choosing photo wallpaper, it is also necessary to pay attention to the quality of the canvas itself, since not all of them are suitable for all rooms. The price category of photo cloths depends on the quality and texture of the paintings, as they are made from various materials.

So paper-based canvases are not suitable for rooms with high humidity or where it is easy to hook and tear them. From this we can conclude that paper murals are weak and non-moisture resistant. But such canvases are environmentally friendly and are the cheapest.

Fabrics made on a woven basis are also environmentally friendly. They have a very expensive and aesthetic appearance, but are very expensive. They are also not suitable for humid and quickly polluting rooms, since they are quite problematic to clean.

The most common canvases are those on vinyl and non-woven backing. They are very strong and completely not afraid of moisture. But vinyl canvases have tangible disadvantages, for example, they are not always created from environmentally friendly materials and do not allow air to pass through at all.

Also, the photo cloth can differ in various textures, for example:

  • Hoarfrost is a fiber cloth that is ideal for winter sports images.
  • The surface is a smooth glossy canvas on which water sports will look good.
  • Sand - this rough cloth is well suited for depicting racing in the sand.

There are a lot of textures in modern photoworks and manufacturers do not stop there. You can find canvases imitating masonry or brickwork, wood bark, canvas and various fabrics.
