Wallpaper - Greetings from New Hampshire - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from New Hampshire wallpaper captures the graphic charm of classic mid-century travel postcards. Created by The Tichnor Brothers, the design features bold block lettering spelling out "NEW HAMPSHIRE", with each letter framing miniature scenic vignettes of mountains, lakes, waterfalls, trains, and landmarks. Set against a gradient sky, the composition includes the State Capitol in Concord and delicate purple lilacs, outlined with striking red and black shadows. Produced as made-to-measure, PVC-free wall murals with a subtle physical structure in the paper, this design brings a nostalgic, Americana-inspired statement to any interior.

In the room

Because of its strong graphic layout and large-scale typography, we see this design working best as a dedicated focal point on a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall. It brings distinct character to a holiday home, living room, study, or hallway where the complete lettering can be appreciated without being heavily obstructed by tall furniture. In spaces with good natural light, the rich blues, warm oranges, and verdant greens in each letter vignette remain crisp and clear. Placing this mural wallpaper along a main seating wall or behind a low console table gives the detailed scenic illustrations room to stand out.

Styling it

To balance the bold graphic typography and multi-coloured postcard illustrations, we recommend pairing this wallpaper with relatively clean, understated interior elements. Warm wood finishes, such as vintage teak, walnut, or honeyed oak, complement the retro 1940s character of the print without competing for visual attention. For surrounding furniture, simple mid-century silhouettes, neutral upholstery, and tailored lines keep the focus firmly on the wall. Matte black accents or brushed metal fixtures can subtly echo the heavy linework and graphic outlines of the letters.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a lively palette built around sky blue, rich greens, earthy golds, and pops of orange-red, lilac, and black. To create a cohesive room scheme, consider pulling tones directly from the motif for your adjacent walls, trims, and textiles:

• Soft sky blue or muted lilac creates a fresh, tonal backdrop on neighbouring walls that draws out the floral and sky elements.
• Deep forest greens or olive tones anchor the space and mirror the lush landscape illustrations within the lettering.
• Warm neutrals, such as parchment, soft cream, or light taupe, provide a quiet contrast that lets the vibrant lettering pop.
• Burnt orange or terracotta accents through cushions, throws, or decorative ceramics tie in with the dynamic drop shadows.
