Wallpaper - Greetings from the Beach - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from the Beach - Screenprint Postcard wallpaper captures a charming aerial view of a seaside town, bringing together a retro coastal landscape and graphic mid-century character. Created by The Tichnor Brothers in the 1940s screenprint style, the composition pairs colourful rooftops in red, yellow, and blue against vibrant green fields, an orderly street grid, and a soft sandy beach meeting gentle ocean waves. A glowing sky in shades of blue and pink anchors the horizon with a calm, nostalgic warmth. Like all our wall murals, 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

Because this is a panoramic scenic composition with fine architectural details and an open coastal horizon, we like it best on a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall where the full aerial perspective can unfold. In a living room or a dedicated dining space, placing this mural wallpaper behind low-profile seating or a dining table keeps the grid of colourful houses and the meeting of land and sea fully visible. It also works wonderfully in a holiday home, a playful guest room, or a bright home office, where its vintage travel aesthetic introduces colour and character without overwhelming the room. If your space has generous natural light, the subtle shifts between the sky pinks and ocean blues become especially vivid throughout the day.

Styling it

To balance the graphic detail and rich palette of this vintage coastal print, we recommend keeping surrounding furnishings simple and grounded. Low-slung mid-century furniture or clean contemporary pieces prevent the wall from feeling crowded, letting the illustrative townscape take centre stage. Warm natural woods or painted white surfaces pair effortlessly with the nostalgic 1940s postcard mood, while avoiding heavily patterned upholstery ensures the room remains visually harmonious.

Colour combinations

The design features a rich palette anchored by ocean blues, soft sandy tones, and earthy greens, accented by bright pops of primary red, sunny yellow, and sunset pink in the town and sky. When choosing colours for surrounding walls, woodwork, or larger textiles, we suggest pulling directly from these softer background tones. A warm off-white or soft sandy neutral on adjacent walls keeps the atmosphere light and airy, while a muted ocean blue or sage green on trim or cabinetry echoes the landscape and creates a cohesive, considered look.
