Wallpaper - Greetings from Providence - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Providence wallpaper brings the classic mid-century postcard aesthetic straight onto the wall. Created from original artwork by The Tichnor Brothers, this design features bold lettering spelling out "Greetings from Providence, R.I.", with each letter showcasing architectural landmarks, parks, and city views. A domed statehouse building with a waving flag anchors the lower corner, balanced against a gradient backdrop shifting between warm sunshine yellow, orange, and cool blue. Produced as custom made-to-measure wall murals on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it offers a graphic, retro focal point for any interior.

In the room

Because the motif is designed as a single, complete postcard composition, we see this working best on an uninterrupted accent wall where the full typography and architectural details remain unobstructed. In a living room or home office, placing the mural behind a low credenza or desk allows the lettering and surrounding gradient to remain fully visible. The strong horizontal composition also suits a dedicated entry hall, greeting people with bold Americana imagery as soon as they step inside.

Styling it

• Choose clean-lined mid-century furniture in warm wood tones, such as teak or walnut, which naturally align with the 1940s vintage aesthetic of the artwork.
• Balance the energetic typography by keeping large upholstered pieces in neutral, solid textiles rather than competing patterns.
• Incorporate simple lighting with matte black or warm brass hardware to echo the graphic line work within the postcard illustration.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built on a vibrant base of sunshine yellow and warm orange that transitions into cool sky blue, framed by rich architectural accents inside the lettering. To let the mural lead the space, pair it with soft warm white or pale parchment on surrounding walls. For a richer palette, pull the deep cobalt blue or warm terracotta from the postcard illustration into accent cushions, painted trim, or nearby shelving.
