Wallpaper - 70's Avant Garden

Our 70's Avant Garden wallpaper by Carrie Cantwell brings an energetic, retro-inspired floral pattern to the wall. The composition layers stylized daisies and imaginative blooms with bold outlines and circular centres over a soft pastel teal backdrop. Tones of pastel pink, vibrant yellow, clean white, and teal mingle in a dense repeat with a graphic, screenprint-inspired look. Produced made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, this design offers a playful and expressive presence that easily redefines a room.

In the room

Because the repeat is dense and rhythmic, we particularly like this design in compact to medium-sized residential spaces where its graphic personality can envelop the room. It works naturally in a creative home art studio, a lively playroom, or a teenage bedroom where a bold, cheerful backdrop feels right at home. In a powder room or dressing room, the flat illustrations and bright floral motifs turn smaller walls into an engaging visual feature without needing extensive wall decor.

Styling it

When styling around such a vibrant, graphic pattern, we suggest balancing the wall with simpler forms and quiet surfaces:

• Choose painted furniture or light-toned wood with clean, mid-century or retro lines to echo the 1970s character of the motif without competing with its busy rhythm.
• Keep surrounding textiles relatively simple, using solid weaves rather than competing prints so the floral forms remain the clear focal point of the space.
• Introduce lighting with matte white or brushed metallic finishes to reflect the clean outlines of the petals and circular flower centres.

Colour combinations

The pattern itself combines pastel pink, sunny yellow, crisp white, and teal against a soft pastel teal background. For adjacent painted walls, cabinetry, or major trim, we recommend picking up on the softer tones in the motif, such as a pale pastel pink or a muted off-white. If you want a more grounded look, a deeper teal or warm golden ochre drawn from the flower centres creates a confident, cohesive accent on surrounding architectural details.
