A German firm is calling time on boring domestic doors and offering customers the chance to glam up their homes with unique 3-D designs for them.

Viewed from a distance, the printed motifs could be mistaken for a real jet parked up inside or even give the impression that pole dancers are gyrating around in your living room
The brainchild of Thomas Sassenbach, “Style-Your-Door.com” will be launched this month and follows his wildly successful garage front designs.

“We want to get rid of those drab plain coloured interior doors,” says graphic designer and advertising guru Thomas.
“I wanted to bring a sense of fun and style into peoples homes and so after the storming hit with the Style-Your-Garage, we wanted to expand our simple idea.
“Suddenly there’s something behind the door that you wouldn’t normally expect. The 3-d motifs are deceptively realistic and will cause family and neighbours to stop and stare.”
Printed onto rain and fire-resistant tarpaulin, Thomas’ designs are available on order from the internet with prices starting at £72.

Sized for a standard European door frame, Thomas and his Munich based team even offer the option of a personalised motif based on a picture or specific request from the potential customer.
“These door billboards are not simply oversized stickers,” says Thomas.
“They are made of thin, special films able to hold their shape and are attachable to any even surfaced door.

“They are made from washable material and thanks to their size of 90-cm wide by 210 cm tall they can be cut and pasted on most frames.”
Thomas says that in the last few months they have been taking orders from as far away as New York City to Reunion Island in the Indian Ocean.

‘The billboards are almost indestructible,” says Thomas.
“They are not dissimilar to truck tarpaulins, but have a finer structure. The material is rip-proof and can be cut without damaging it. What’s more, the billboards are completely weather-proof.”
