Thank you so much for the quick response.

Right now I'm in Abu Dhabi and will be in India by the 3rd week of December. So right now we need to correspond only through the mail.

I'm more interested in black and white prints and looking for a size of about 4 x 5 ft I.e 20 sq.ft pictures printed. Since I haven't seen the photo decals please clarify some doubts.

Will the picture look separate from the wall? What is the thickness of the print? Will it be removable? Does it leave any adhesive stains on the walls?
And I need the pictures cut to their shape and not in rectangular shape. This can be done, right?
You will sending the demo pictures before final print, right?
How long will it take for printing and delivery after finalizing?

And we replied:

Please find response below:

Will the picture looks separate from the wall?
There are 2 different things we make:

Wall Mural: Please check attached Peacock wall mural images. This is essentially the design printed with high quality digital ink on a matte material, and has lamination.

What is the thickness of the print ?
Wall decals have very less thickness and thickness cannot be noticed from a distance.Wall murals have a little thickness, but they also merge into the wall almost seamlessly.

Will it be removable ?
Wall decals are removable, they do not remove the paint of your wall. Wall murals have a little high amount of glue and may damage the paint of your wall.

Does it leave any adhesive stains on the walls ?
Kakshyaachitra wall decals are made from best quality indoor decor material, it will not leave stain on the wall.
Wall murals have a little high glue, they are for permanent/long-time application, may damage the wall while removing.

And I need the pictures cut to their shape and not in rectangular shape. This can be done , right ?
You can see that the outline of wall decals will be machine cut and it will be very fine cutting. Wall decals can be made in only 1 color though, like the attached wall decal of Mr. and Mrs. Navin's portrait is in black color and the background wall color is blue.
If we decide to make a wall mural, then it will be cut only along outline, like the peacock wall decal. It will be a simple outline curve.

You will sending the demo pictures before final print , right ?
Yes, we will confirm the images with you before print. You can also add any messages/quotes with the design if you want.

How long will it take for printing and delivery after finalizing ?
Please let us know where do you want the delivery. Design work for 3-4 images and confirmation should be done in 4-5 days and making the decal-mural will take about 3-4 days, so let us assume a total of 2 weeks after design finalization on a higher side.

Thank you so much.

I’m interested in wall decal in single color...

Confused about this statement...


"Wall decals can be made in only 1 color though, like the attached wall decal of Mr. and Mrs. Navin's portrait is in black color and the background wall color is blue."

I don't see blue color in Mr and Mrs Navin's portrait. If it’s a must, then it will not merge into the background wall color, right?


Please clarify.

And I’m looking for the delivery in Udupi area in Karnataka.

And we replied:


The color of the wall is blue. The decal is black, wall color is very light blue. What I am telling is that the decal will be in black color and the background will be the color of your wall.

We shall soon post the wonderful wall decals we are about to make with Kishore's family photographs.

Why Kakshyaachitra wall decals are expensive?



Ashok Vatika wall decal




This ethnic Indian Ashoka Vatika decal was installed at Rahul’s place in August 2012 and still is as beautiful as it was when installed. Check this article we wrote in September 2012 after installation of this wall decal which is a magnificent and elegant Ethnic Indian design.



Yes, ours are the most expensive wall decals in the market, we know that. Often callers inform us that a design of similar size is available in the market at much lesser prices.

We decided to answer this question once and for all for all our customers and dealers. Directly, no secret withheld.

If you are a retail customer, you will be paying Rs. 300-350 per square feet for a Kakshyaachitra wall decal. With another new ecommerce website opening up every day, you will find many sellers selling at anything between 100 Rs to 200 Rs per square feet.

The simple reason is that the material they use is substandard and is the same vinyl that is used to make the number plate of your vehicle. It is not aesthetic as you see on the website, and the thickness is surely visible when you install it on your wall. It will also leave a residue on the wall if you try to peel it off.

We, at Kakshyaachitra, use special quality indoor decor vinyl material imported from Germany. We assert that this is the best wall decal material in the entire world and we are one of the very few (almost alone) importers of this material.


That is the reason why our cherished customer Paul has become a lifelong acquaintance since we transformed his Chennai home forever in September 2012. Have a look at the wall decals we installed in his living room, ceiling and bedroom in this and this article.

So, a plain and simple answer to the customer’s question is that you will find Kakshyaachitra decals to be priced higher than other eCommerce retailers is that we are using the best indoor decor material in the world which will effectively transform a plain and ordinary wall into a happening and exciting one.

Finding the perfect wall decal design for Lakshmi's home @Goregaon, Mumbai

We will be recently opening an online shop where home owners can choose between and buy Kakshyaachitra decals. Lot of homework needs to be done so that search engines can find the online content and it reaches to the home owners.

Our team was coming up with different meta descriptions that are to be added for different web pages on the Kakshyaachitra decal portal. Below is one of those descriptions:

“Kakshyaachitra offers a wide variety of wall decal designs suitable for different genres and tastes. Check out our online portal, website and blog or drop us a mail to find that perfect decal design for your home.”

And we started questioning ourselves, “Do we really assist home owners in finding the perfect wall decal for their home?”

A recent wonderful installation done at Lakshmi’s house flashed through our memories and we felt happy. Lakshmi and her family have recently returned to settle in India after a long stay in the UK. She knew about wall decals since many home owners in UK install wall decals at their home. Lakshmi had contacted us 3-4 months back while the renovation work was still in progress.

We had about 3 months to discuss what would be best suited for the Living room wall of her house, we deliberated whether to make a wall mural or a wall decal, meanwhile Lakshmi got this Butterfly wall decal installed for one of the bedrooms to ensure the material quality and aesthetic appeal.

Lakshmi always knew that the living room design will have a tree in it. We presented her many options, she searched few on the internet and then she finalised the concept of Buddha and a Tree.

We then designed a decal according to the size of the wall. The outcome is below for you to see. The making of this tremendous, magnificent and gorgeous near-perfect Buddha under the Tree wall decal was a satisfying experience for all of us.
