Wallpaper - Vintage Summer IX

Our Vintage Summer IX wallpaper by Leslie Trimbach brings a playful, mid-century feel to the wall with a watercolor-style illustration of an orange popsicle framed in a classic oval. Behind the central motif, vertical stripes in muted pastel tones of blue, peach, and soft pink create an orderly geometric rhythm with a distinctly retro character. The illustrative details, from the sliced citrus embedded in the ice pop to the textured wooden stick, give the composition an authentic hand-painted appearance. Like all our wallpapers, this design is made-to-measure to your specific wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

In a kitchen or casual breakfast nook, our wall murals work naturally behind open shelving or a small dining table, where the cheerful retro theme adds character without overwhelming the room. The vertical stripe pattern also lends itself well to spaces with lower ceilings, drawing the eye upward while the framed oval serves as a clear visual anchor. For a nursery, toddler room, or playroom, the soft pastel palette creates an inviting, lighthearted mood across a main feature wall. We like giving this design a relatively clear expanse of wall so the central oval motif remains unobstructed by tall furniture.

Styling it

We recommend leaning into warm, vintage-inspired furniture shapes that complement the 1950s aesthetic of the pattern. Unpainted light wood furniture or painted retro pieces in soft off-white work particularly well alongside the gentle tones of the stripes. Keep larger textiles fairly quiet, opting for simple unpatterned fabrics that let the wall mural remain the primary focal point of the space.

Colour combinations

Our design centers on warm honey orange, peach, and soft pink, balanced by muted blue vertical stripes and neutral cream undertones. To build a cohesive room around this wallpaper, we suggest pairing it with adjacent walls painted in warm linen white or muted butter tones that echo the paler background stripes. If you prefer subtle contrast, picking up the dusty blue or pale peach in painted cabinetry or soft furnishings creates a thoughtful connection across the room.
