Murals, graffiti art & street art — what’s the difference?

These terms are often used interchangeably. Here’s what each actually means.

Murals

A broad term for large-scale wall paintings — the umbrella under which graffiti, street art, realism and illustration all sit.

Graffiti art

Style-driven aerosol artwork with bold lettering and expressive visual forms rooted in street culture.

Street art

Concept-driven artwork that responds to its environment through storytelling and site-specific design.

What clients say

Real reviews from councils, schools, businesses and homeowners across Australia.

Brode was very efficient, responsive and professional and produced a wonderful, colourful and very detailed mural for our site at Roseville Chase Oval.

Joanna DurneyKu-ring-gai Council

The Rotary Club of Camden is pleased to support Brode. He was easy to deal with, patient and understanding and during a brief work-shop provided useful suggestions and ideas. His end product was outstanding and it has already received many favourable comments.

Chris EvansThe Rotary Club of Camden

Brode's art and creative flair has brought joy to the students and teachers at our school! Thank you for sharing your talent with our community 🙂

Melissa ParkerMadang Ave Public School

The rhino mural Brode created for us delivered well above our expectations and was the best decision we made for our new home. It brought the wow factor we were looking for, and we can’t believe how real it looks.

Cassy KingsResidential Project

The talented artists from Blackbook Ink recently completed a beautiful Australian native scene on an otherwise unattractive wall at our school. It looks magnificent and the students of our school just love it.

Bernadette RobsonSt Paul the Apostle - Winston Hills

Working with Brode and the team was a great experience! Highly recommend booking Blackbook Ink for your next corporate gig.

Hannah JenkinsCorporate Event

I engaged Blackbook Ink to complete a large mural on the exterior of the venue I manage. I could not be happier with the outcome and process. Blackbook understood what I was trying to achieve and worked closely with me to obtain a fantastic outcome. Happily recommend for any project, and I will be using again within the venue

Timelines depend on the size, detail and complexity of the artwork. Smaller murals may take a few days, while larger murals, school projects, public art walls or multi-site projects can take longer once concept design, approvals, access and installation are included.

Murals can be applied to brick, concrete, render, timber, metal, Colorbond, MDF and most prepared surfaces. Surface condition and preparation affect the final result and longevity. We assess every wall before quoting.

Yes. Many of our projects — particularly school and community murals — are developed through consultation and collaboration. You’ll receive mockups and have the opportunity to provide feedback before painting begins.

Yes. Professionally designed murals significantly reduce unwanted tagging by improving the visual value of a site and creating a sense of ownership. Our Sydney Water anti-graffiti mural has remained largely graffiti-free for over 10 years.
