Damn, I want that door!
Well.. They certainly have Americans beat on casual graffiti style.. This guy must have brought in a suitcase full of paints!
Somebody had mass talent.
wow what an ace door, just a shame someone has come and written Dose over it.Can you imagine that when it was all intact and still in use in the old days if you like. :P
Everything is practically falling apart around the door.
It's Trompe L' Oeil and very nice.
awh.

it brings such a serene picture in my head but i guess it didnt do much for the patients living there huh?

The first thing that I think of is that this door could lead to a Retro - 1960's Coffee Shop for a bunch of "drugged - out" and "burned - out" old hippies who still cannot find their way into the modern world of the 21st Century.

You can still find alot of these old hippies in Nothern California, Oregon and Washington all along the Western Coastline.

Some of these old hippies still live in tents and youth hostels. I have picked - up several of them hitch - hiking along Highway 101 and dropped them off at their designations to include buying them something to eat like sandwiches, fresh fruit and vitamins.

Besides the soil to the faux setting the door provides, my question is being; What is behind
the door? That is a very odd place for the other set of doors near the ceiling.
check the vids on youtube i was in there last week me and my mate was in there drinking and looking about its is canny dodgy how things have just been left shame the chavs have been in and wrecked it .if carlsberg did nutt houses cherry knowles would be the best lol
that is some psychedellic (spelling?) colors! To have something as that as my bedroom door, would be out of this world!
The door leads to the swimming pool, though it was'nt painted in such a fashion when I worked there
Interesting paint job....
You've found the art among the ruins.......
