Wallpaper - Greetings from New York City - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from New York City wallpaper captures three iconic landmarks in a vibrant, vintage-inspired postcard composition. Set against a warm saffron yellow backdrop, circular vignettes frame the Statue of Liberty, the Empire State Building, and the RCA Building at Rockefeller Center, complemented by bold typography across the design. The artwork carries the distinct visual character of a classic 1930s screenprint, complete with retro graphic contrast and subtle print-like texture. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

Because of its strong graphic identity and prominent postcard framing, we see this wall mural working best where it can be viewed with a bit of distance. In a living room, it makes an energetic focal point on a main feature wall behind a sofa or across an uninterrupted surface where the trio of landmarks remains fully in view. The bold scale also suits a vacation home or a creative study where you want the wallpaper to set a nostalgic, travel-inspired mood. Since the design relies on a structured visual layout, keeping the central area free from tall standing furniture ensures the landmark roundels and lettering have room to be appreciated.

Styling it

The distinct retro screenprint look of this mural wallpaper pairs naturally with mid-century modern and vintage-leaning interiors. We would balance the graphic nature of the print with simple, structured furniture shapes rather than ornate or heavily decorated pieces.

Warm wood tones like teak or medium oak complement the rich saffron background, while black metal accents or clean-lined dark furniture echo the bold graphic typography. To keep the focus on the artwork, we suggest keeping surrounding patterns quiet and letting the wallpaper serve as the main visual statement in the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by its warm saffron yellow base, contrasted with deep architectural blues, rich black lettering, and crisp white details within the illustration.

When choosing paint for adjacent walls or woodwork, a warm off-white or soft cream allows the vibrant yellow background to stand out without competing for attention. If you prefer a moodier, more cohesive look, pulling the deep blue from the landmark vignettes onto adjacent trim, cabinetry, or upholstered furniture creates a grounded and intentional contrast against the bright backdrop.
