Wallpaper - Vintage Summer III

Our Vintage Summer III wallpaper brings together classic warm-weather motifs in a lively watercolor style, created by Leslie Trimbach. The pattern features scattered summer essentials across a clean, pale ground: a teal inflatable swim ring, green flip-flops, a red popsicle, teal swim shorts accented with an orange stripe and yellow drawstring, and soft green palm leaves. The loose, hand-painted look gives the graphic shapes an easygoing, nostalgic feel with balanced negative space. Like all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made to measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

We love this design for spaces that welcome a bright, carefree mood. In a children's playroom or a teenage bedroom, the motif adds energetic character without overwhelming the room, thanks to the open spacing between the illustrated elements. It also feels right at home in casual residential spaces like a vacation home, summer cabin, poolhouse, or bathroom, where its playful holiday theme can take centre stage. Because the repeat has a light background and well-spaced illustrations, we find it works nicely across an entire room or as a cheerful focal wall behind a low storage unit, desk, or daybed.

Styling it

To keep the lighthearted feel balanced, we suggest pairing this wallpaper with relatively simple, grounding furnishings:

• Choose light, natural woods like birch, ash, or pale pine for furniture frames and shelving, which keep the room feeling relaxed and airy.
• Keep surrounding upholstery and larger bedding in neutral, unpatterned fabrics so the motif remains the main graphic interest.
• Bring in clean, contemporary silhouettes with minimal visual weight, avoiding overly dark, formal, or ornate pieces that might compete with the illustration style.

Colour combinations

The design is built around a fresh mix of teal, soft green, red, warm orange, and golden yellow set against an off-white background. When choosing paint for adjoining walls or woodwork, we recommend pulling directly from the quieter tones in the paper, such as an airy off-white, a pale sand, or a very muted coastal blue-grey. If you prefer a bit more contrast, a soft sage green on baseboards or window trim echoes the palm leaves and green flip-flops while maintaining a grounded, cohesive look.
