Stand on a chair and use a 50mm lens.

Ok, first of all, you need very good glue. Otherwise everything just falls of the wall.....

or shoot each piece individually and put together in photoshop

I think 50 is too wide you will surely get distortion. the example is likely a 100mm 5 - 6 ft above. you can use a 50mm but you will have a lot of post work too straighten all those lines.

Find someone who has one of these...
or rig up a regular tripod leaning forward to get you camera vertical. Then weigh down the trailing leg with a sandbag (or duct tape it to the floor) so it won't fall forward.
- Ooh! I’d love one of these. And a camera to put on it.MrOneHundred

Yes. 50mm, a tripod, and multiple photos collaged in photoshop should do it nicely.

bullshit, you can use a 50 mm and then crop it.. aka use more whitespace where distortion gets stronger..
so many ways to do this.. be creative ffs...
