Don, I feel that this "type" of image would be particularly suited to commercial use. Virtually any sort of business office or attendant customer receiving or waiting area. Engineering office reception areas immediately comes to mind. They will trend to occupy the viewers mind to a greater extent than would a quickly read common theme. One route to reaching such locations would, of course, be through arming commercial interior decorating businesses with examples (watermarked) for their portfolios. Has worked some for me. Very marketable, at least the one I've seen.
