Wallpaper - Greetings from Indiana - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Indiana wallpaper captures the bold, graphic charm of a classic mid-century travel postcard. Designed in the distinctive screenprint style associated with The Tichnor Brothers, the motif centres on large, block lettering spelling out INDIANA, with each letter framing iconic state scenes such as a racetrack, monument, stadium, garden, and tower. In the foreground, the golden dome of the Indiana State Capitol stands framed by bright orange zinnias, set against a soft sky blue gradient backdrop. As with all Wallism wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to fit your wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

Because of the strong horizontal focus and large-scale lettering, we see this design working best on an open, relatively uninterrupted feature wall where the full composition can be appreciated. In a hallway, entryway, or living room, the bold typography and vivid vignettes create an eye-catching focal point that immediately sets a nostalgic tone. It also works wonderfully in a home office or creative studio where you want an energetic graphic accent behind a desk or reading corner. If you are decorating a vacation home or guest space, using this mural on the primary focal wall brings a distinct sense of retro Americana without overwhelming the rest of the room.

Styling it

We recommend balancing the graphic energy of the postcard motif with relatively clean-lined furniture and unpatterned materials:

• Pair the wallpaper with warm wood or painted mid-century furniture with simple silhouettes so the large typography remains the visual centre of the room.
• Use plain, solid-colour textiles on upholstery, curtains, or cushions rather than competing busy patterns.
• Incorporate simple retro-inspired lighting, such as warm brass or matte black task lamps, to complement the 1940s vintage aesthetic.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a bright palette led by a gradient sky blue background, accented with golden yellow, vivid orange zinnias, and rich graphic tones inside the lettering. When choosing surrounding colours, we suggest keeping adjacent walls in soft off-white, light cream, or a very pale sky blue pulled directly from the background gradient. For accent pieces, furniture, or trim, warm ochre, muted navy, or soft terracotta work naturally alongside the golden dome and floral details.
