YOUR PROJECTS DESERVE THE HIGHEST RESOLUTION PHOTOGRAPHS EVER CREATED

You no longer have to use images that lack the requisite quality for large-format prints, wallpapers, trade show booths, installations, and more. VAST photos are the most versatile images ever created, with the resolution necessary for any and all types of projects, from office wall murals to virtual reality environments. If the sharpness, clarity, and quality of the imagery matters, use a VAST photo.

Example of an ultra-high-resolution VAST photo being used to create a large wall mural. Example of an ultra-high-resolution VAST photo being used as a backdrop of a trade show booth. Example of a VAST photo being used as a backlit wall in a meditation room. Example of a VAST photo being used as a large backdrop on a stage. Example of a VAST photo being used as a large backlit wall in a medical clinic.

WHY USING A VAST PHOTO MATTERS

The sharpness of traditional photos quickly deteriorates when they're enlarged beyond a few feet wide. These blurry photos reflect poorly on the establishments they represent, revealing a lack of attention to detail and a compromised level of quality. VAST photos, on the other hand, remain beautifully crisp and detailed even at very large sizes, lending a polished, upscale atmosphere to their surroundings.

Enter a pair of dimensions and see the difference in clarity between a typical photo and an average VAST photo when printed at that size:
WIDTH (ft)
HEIGHT (ft)
Typical photos printed at 10x5 feet:
15 pixels/inch: Poor
This image simulates what 15 pixels/in looks like up close.
An average VAST photo printed at 10x5 feet:
15 pixels/inch: Flawless
This image simulates what 15 pixels/in looks like up close.
*Due to differing screen resolutions, these images are for comparison purposes only and may not reflect the appearance when printed.
We're definitely a believer in the quality that VAST turns over and look forward to future applications we have for some of your other amazing VAST photos.

We had the mural made for our office. This is crazy. You weren't exaggerating. This is the quality we were hoping for. It is many times sharper than anything we've seen.

We've been very pleased with the three photos we licensed and get asked all the time about the incredible quality of such large scale projects. I’ll make sure to always keep VAST in mind for all large scale jobs.
