The image-based system enables design teams far more creative freedom to use walls as a backdrop for design ideas, which can then be recreated in spaces of any size. More and more, patterns are being developed which encourage these more creative themes.

These digital images can then be printed on a variety of backing materials. The underlying material for Outdoor wallpaper is a flexible fiberglass. The pattern is printed onto this surface. The backing material can cover small cracks and abrasions in the surface wall, otherwise foundation materials need to be used. There are various top coatings, which, for example, resist UV light so pattern colors do not fade.
