Wallpaper - Greetings from Ocean City MD. - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Ocean City MD. wallpaper draws on mid-century travel art with its classic screenprint postcard style. Bold, graphic lettering frames individual coastal vignettes, filled with sunbathers, umbrellas, rolling ocean waves, and seaside buildings. Set against dynamic diagonal stripes in energetic orange and warm coral, the composition has an unmistakable vintage holiday feel. Printed as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wall mural with a subtle physical texture in the paper, it makes a spirited focal point for an accent wall.

In the room

We love this design on an open, uninterrupted wall where the full postcard composition and lettering can be appreciated without interruption. In a living room or a holiday home lounge, it works brilliantly as a feature wall behind a low sofa or credenza, keeping the illustrative scenes fully in view. The strong horizontal structure of the text balanced by the diagonal stripes gives the motif a lively presence, making it well suited to social spaces where you want the wall to bring warmth, character, and visual energy.

Styling it

Because the artwork is bold and graphic, we recommend pairing it with mid-century modern or relaxed retro furnishings that share its period character.

• Choose warm mid-tone wood furniture, such as teak or warm oak, which complements the nostalgic 1940s print style.
• Opt for clean-lined, low-profile seating in neutral upholstery to give the detailed beach scenes room to stand out.
• Incorporate simple accents in matte white or subtle coastal blues to echo the lettering and water tones within the mural.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by its vibrant orange and coral background stripes, contrasted with the blues, whites, and sandy tones inside the illustrated letters. When decorating around it, we suggest keeping surrounding walls in soft off-white, warm cream, or pale sand to let the warm palette take centre stage. If you want a more adventurous room scheme, deep navy or ocean blue on neighbouring surfaces or painted trim creates a striking, considered contrast with the sunny coral tones.
