Wallpaper - Acorn Street

Our Acorn Street wallpaper mural brings together the architectural character of weathered red brick with the classic silhouette of a vintage street lamp. Designed by Tono Balaguer, the scene captures the glowing lantern casting soft light and long shadows across the rustic brickwork, highlighted by bold dark lettering reading "BOSTON". The rich rust and earthy orange undertones give the wall mural an authentic urban identity with a nostalgic, historic feel. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to fit your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

In a home office or a dedicated study, this design works especially well behind a desk or along a main focal wall where the architectural depth can take center stage. Because the composition features a strong vertical focal point with the black street lamp alongside the expansive brick surface, we recommend placing it on a relatively open wall area where the lantern and typography remain unobstructed. The deep terracotta, rust, and brick-red tones bring a grounded warmth to working spaces, making the room feel enclosed and comfortable throughout the day. In an entryway or reading nook, the mural creates an immediate sense of place, establishing a cozy, urban atmosphere as soon as you step inside.

Styling it

To complement the vintage urban character of this design, we suggest pairing it with furniture and accents that echo its historic architectural roots. Dark metal details, such as matte black shelving, iron desk frames, or aged bronze desk lamps, naturally connect with the black street lamp in the print. For furniture, warm, medium-to-dark wood tones like walnut, aged pine, or warm-stained oak harmonize with the earthy rust hues of the brickwork. Keeping surrounding textiles relatively simple, such as woven wool or smooth leather upholstery, allows the rich texture of the brick mural to remain the clear visual anchor of the space.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper centers around a warm, earthy palette of rustic red, burnt orange, and terracotta brick, accented by deep charcoal and black in the lantern and signage, with soft golden highlights in the glowing lamp. When painting adjacent walls, trim, or built-in cabinetry, consider deep charcoal or soft graphite to draw out the dark ironwork and lettering. If you prefer a lighter, more balanced feel, soft warm off-white or muted sand tones provide a clean contrast that allows the warm red brick to stand out without competing for attention.
