Wallpaper - Greetings from Concord - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Concord wallpaper captures the graphic character of mid-century souvenir postcards, created from an original print by The Tichnor Brothers. The design is led by bold dimensional lettering spelling out Concord, New Hampshire, with each letter containing detailed historic scenes, local buildings, leafy views, and a horse-drawn carriage. Soft diagonal pastel stripes in pink, yellow, and green form the backdrop, grounded by warm coral tones and crisp graphic outlines. Like all of our wallpapers, it is made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because this design acts as a complete graphic composition, we see it working particularly well as a focal point on an entryway wall, in a hallway, or inside a dedicated study or home office. In an entry or hallway, the postcard format creates an immediate sense of arrival, welcoming guests with vintage Americana charm. In a holiday home or guest bedroom, the motif adds a warm, nostalgic character that feels instantly inviting. We suggest placing this design on a wall with minimal visual interruptions, such as above low panelling or behind a low console, allowing the detailed letter illustrations and large-scale typography to remain clearly legible.

Styling it

The distinct 1940s print aesthetic pairs naturally with mid-century modern furniture, retro accents, or simpler vintage pieces. To let the intricate lettering and diagonal stripe backdrop remain the centre of attention, we recommend keeping larger furniture pieces relatively simple in shape and unpatterned.

• Warm wood tones, such as teak or medium oak, complement the coral and pastel tones in the print without competing for attention.
• Clean-lined painted furniture in off-white or muted cream helps ground the vibrant typography while keeping the overall room light.
• Matte black metal lighting or simple framed prints nearby echo the crisp outlines in the lettering.

Colour combinations

The palette in our wallpaper centres around warm coral, butter yellow, soft rose pink, and pale green, balanced by crisp white and dark contrast lines. When decorating around this motif, we suggest drawing out one of the softer background shades for adjacent painted walls or woodwork. A gentle warm white or creamy buttermilk makes a natural companion for surrounding walls, while muted sage green or dusty rose on skirting boards or interior doors creates a considered, tonal link back to the stripes.
