It features bold typography inspired by a youthful, future-oriented theme.
Gregg Stobbs’ illustration is on the side of the Dover Sea Angling Association building opposite the Norman Street car park.
It blends Dover’s heritage, countryside and coastline in a contemporary style.
The decorations have already been well received by the locals.
All 60 comments on the Dover District Councul (DDC) Facebook page in just over a day, up to this afternoon (Saturday). praised the effort.
One person commented: “A million miles away from graffiti…..nice and bright, town needs a bit of colour.”

While another added: “They’ve brought some much-needed colour to the town.”
A third wrote: “Looks great. More of the same for dilapidated parts of Dover please.”
This project was made possible through collaboration between town centre partners.
These included DDC, Dover Town Council, the arts and environment group Future Foundry, the Port of Dover authority, The Art Club plus the property owners who allowed the artwork on their buildings.
The project was jointly funded by the two councils and the port authority.
