It’s a customized world we live in. Technology has paved the way for consumers to demand products designed to their specific needs and tastes. Wall Funk, a South Wales-based custom wallpaper and mural manufacturer, was born of this idea—to offer the funkiest, most unique wallcovering designs to fit customers’ tastes.
Ben Hughes, the founder of Wall Funk, knows wallpaper. After years spent in commercial and residential decor, as well as installing all kinds of wall coverings, he decided to create his own wallpaper company and sell his products online. Wall Funk prints all of their unique and beautiful designs in-house on an HP Latex 315. Hughes spent a long time researching and testing different kinds of wallcovering before deciding on HP PVC-free Wall Paper.
“It’s an excellent media that gives us confidence in producing a consistent product," says Hughes. "After printing thousands of square meters, we have yet to face any challenges with it. Feedback from our customers about installation and quality has been extremely positive.”
Hughes sees a big shift towards environmentally conscious products — a major factor in his decision to use HP PVC-free Wall Paper which has multiple environmental certifications and is safe and odorless.
Check out his online store on Etsy: etsy.com/shop/WallFunk and read customer reviews that rave about the easy installation with this pre-pasted paper.

The goal of art is to provide an alternative view of the world and a way to interpret what we see every day in a new and inspired way. This is what Shelley Smith, the Spunky Bohemian, achieves beautifully in her oil paintings.
“I’m drawn to subjects for their history, irony, isolation and beauty, reminding us of who we are, from where we came and where we are going,” says Smith. Her subjects are those familiar yet overlooked icons of Americana that are an enduring part of our childhood, our culture, and our communities.
Smith has been painting since she was a child but was encouraged to pursue a career that was more “practical.” She did that with the determination and drive for perfection like she does with everything and earned her BA in economics and MBA in business and works developing business intelligence tools and analytics for her day job.
As a way to provide another avenue to share her art and create an alternative income stream, Smith began to print limited edition prints. She prints them on her HP DesignJet Z3200 printer with HP Matte Litho-realistic Paper, chosen for its vibrancy of color, archival properties, and overall museum print quality. Smith is all about quality in everything she does and jokingly refers to herself as “Top Shelf Shelley.” She photographs her subject matter and then prints with HP Professional Instant-dry Satin Photo Paper to assist with the composition and layout of her paintings.
As more artists turn to online sales, Smith sees digital printing becoming an important tool as customers demand faster and faster turnaround times and custom sizes.

As COVID cases fall and life is nearing normal, the retail industry is poised for a rebound. To draw shoppers back into brick and mortar stores, retailers are enhancing the shopping experience and signage is a big part of it.
“Customers either demand great experiences — and they’re willing to pay more for that — or they expect convenience and want to be in and out really fast,” says Dmitry Sokolov, global industry lead, retail for HP. “Experience and convenience are where I think retail will continue to develop.” *
A few of the new retail signage trends include:
- Signage that adds to shopping as an experience
- Signage that can help facilitate shopping, such as navigational and instructional signs for self-checkout, digital wallets, and queue lines
- Bold endcap displays that can make it easy to “grab-and-go”
- Pop-up displays can make an in-store connection with online shoppers who are there for pickup
- QR codes on signs to provide additional and immediate product and promotional information that may not be available to online shoppers
- Point-of-purchase displays for essentials reducing the time spent in-store
- Outdoor signage to draw shoppers in
Print and technology together will continue to connect the online and offline shopping experience and create opportunities for Print Service Providers. HP offers media to create a multitude of applications for both aqueous and latex ink technologies to help retailers meet these new challenges.

Color management is key to printing accurate color consistently and predictably. Every paper and printer combination needs a specific ICC color profile to ensure true color from monitor to print.
And, ICC profiles save time and money!
Using a generic media profile wastes a tremendous amount of ink and makes spot color matching more difficult. ICC color profiles reduce ink and media consumption, improve quality, save operator time, and increase productivity by minimizing remakes and errors.
HP provides the right ICC profile for all its media conveniently located HERE for download
Share this link and these 4 easy steps with your customers:
- Choose the printer model
- Download the profile that corresponds to your HP media
- Save it to the ICC profile location on your computer
- Choose that profile in the print dialogue box when printing
