My dedicated temple does not at this time have a physically painted circle inscribed in any manner.
Not to mean I am opposed to this artistic license.
I have seen photographs of a building which Gardner used, which not only had a circled painted on the floor, but astrological signs painted in a circle around the upper part of the all.
I have on occasion considered that idea. I like astrological signs, they could be quite lovely and visually inspiring.
I think a lot depends on the constraints of privacy. If one paints something permanent on the floor or walls, and then the house must be sold at some point. I love my tree of life I painted on the wall, it has been a lovely meditation tool, but what if I needed to move. It would not be easily painted over.
