Mural Design A Roaring Success Thanks To Leyland
Leyland Trade has once again highlighted its thrilling colour credentials after its wide range of imaginative colours helped a creative mural designer transform the exterior of a Norwich children’s centre into a vibrant and eye-catching jungle-inspired design.
Leyland's vast array of colour combinations caught the attention of Brian Korteling, who had been commissioned by the Sure Start Children's Centre in Lakenham to design and paint a vivid mural which would capture the imagination of the young children.
After discovering Leyland's extensive colour options through his own internet research Brian then went along to his local Johnstone's Leyland Decorating Centre and, thanks to the unrivalled customer service offered by the Decorating Centre staff, left with striking colours, including Glory Days, Empire Green and Autumn Chestnut, to ensure his mural would come to life in spectacular fashion.
Brian said: "After searching for the ideal colour combination for the mural design, I was struck by Leyland’s fantastic range. I required colours that would bring the best out of the mural and really engage with the children and I feel that Leyland’s products and colours helped me to achieve this. The mural has received a wonderful response from everyone associated with the children's centre and I'm looking forward to making a start on the next one."
Nicki Hickman, Leyland Brand Manager, added: "Colour has long played an integral role in the success of Leyland and we were thrilled to be able to assist Brian in creating such a vibrant mural for the Sure Start Centre. With our colour expertise and free colour tinting service, there really is nothing Leyland doesn’t have covered when it comes to colour."
