Hey everyone, I’ve been thinking about commissioning a mural for my home office, but I’m really torn about how many revisions I should expect from a professional service. Like, on one hand, I want to be sure the final piece perfectly matches my vision, but on the other hand, I’ve heard that too many rounds of revisions can slow down the process and get expensive. How do you all usually handle this? Do you push for more revisions or stick to just a few?

I totally get where you’re coming from! From my experience working with mural artists, a good middle ground is usually built into their standard terms. For example, I recently checked a New York-based service ( city design projects https://feelflow.space/pages/mural-painting-services-in-new-york) where they provide 3 rounds of digital sketches, 2-3 sketch revisions on the wall, and 1-2 minor changes during the painting itself. This setup gives you enough flexibility to tweak your design without causing delays or inflating the budget. Personally, I liked having the digital sketches first because it made it easy to communicate exactly what I wanted before they started painting. It also helped prevent misunderstandings about colors, composition, or scale. Honestly, it made the whole process feel structured yet collaborative. So I’d say, aim for a set number of revisions that balances your creative input with the artist’s workflow. That way, everyone stays on the same page and the final mural comes out exactly how you imagined it.

Yeah, that makes sense. I think it’s really about finding a balance—enough revisions to make sure you love the outcome, but not so many that it drags on forever. It also depends on how detailed the mural is and how comfortable you are making decisions on the spot.
