Supergraphics

Anyone else into '70s-style supergraphics? I love them -- I have a ton of vintage home/architecture/interior design books with lots of great examples. I'm currently in the process of setting up a nursery (son is due in a couple of months), and I've just painted these supergraphics on one side of the room:





The colors (light blue/orange/brown) were chosen to tie in with some Dwell Studio bedding and accessories that were purchased for the nursery.

There's a cleaner in Austin, Jack Brown Cleaners, that uses these.

I did not know those were called supergraphics and always referred to them as "funky 70s shit" until now. Old people in this thread.

Room is pretty cool though.

I like those. It must have been a real pain to get such straight lines when painting over the grooves between the cinderblocks.

Maybe they sprayed the paint instead of a brush?
