Wall text 'Wanderlust'

  • Corten steel

Wanderlust refers to the irresistible urge to travel, discover new places, head out into nature or simply enjoy a relaxing walk. The word has its origins in German, where ‘WANDER’ means a leisurely walk and ‘LUST’ means desire. This Corten steel wall sign was hand-designed by Maud Bekaert and then laser-cut from Corten steel. Perfect for bon vivants, nature lovers, walkers or travellers.

To hang the wall text indoors: Position the text and use a spirit level to check that it is hanging straight. Secure the wall text with nails. This can be done in any closed letter shape. Use steel or brass nails. These match the colour of Corten steel best.

To hang the wall text outdoors: Position the text and use a spirit level to check that it is hanging straight. Mark where you want the fixing points and drill holes in the wall at those points. Insert wall plugs. Screw stainless steel screws or screw-in wall plugs into the plugs. Do not screw the screws or screw-in wall plugs all the way into the wall, leaving a little space to bring the text slightly ‘forward’. A few millimetres is sufficient. This prevents the corten steel from coming into contact with the wall and avoids rust stains on the wall. If the surface allows it, you can also use stainless steel nails outdoors. Do not hammer them all the way into the wall, so that a small gap remains between the wall text and the wall.
