Printed Space

Custom wallpaper and flooring

My initial experience with Printed Space came about when family in England bought my wife and I a couple of canvases that used photos from our wedding. An artist at Printed Space worked with my brother to edit a batch of 300 photos down to 60, then cropped and arranged them and gave my brother various digital proofs, from which he selected the one he thought we’d like the best. The canvas was shipped from England to our home in San Francisco in a custom-made picture-frame box, in perfect condition.

When we found out that Printed Space also puts your images (or stock images) on blinds and wallpaper, we got a bedroom decorated for a friend’s 4-year-old son. (Pictured here).

The company now does flooring too, so I’m planning to get the lobby and other areas of my office covered with custom flooring.

What we liked: Limitless choice in images — use your own, or images you can buy from any online source. Printed Space has partnerships with a number of stock image sources, photographers and artists, so you’re not going to end up with the same all-too-obvious images you see elsewhere.

Fully customized to your space. These are not posters. I’ve had other canvases made by online poster vendors, but they’ve been just that — posters printed on canvas. These are images that can be enlarged, cropped, rotated, whatever, to suit the space you’re trying to decorate. Printed Space gave us advice about planning around windows, doors, light switches and power outlets. You pay no extra for this design service.

I couldn’t be happier with the quality of their work.
