Wallpaper - Greetings from Seattle - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Seattle wallpaper brings the graphic energy of a classic 1930s linen postcard to a larger wall scale. Designed by The Tichnor Brothers, the motif features bold white lettering spelling out "Greetings from Seattle", with each character revealing a distinct regional vignette, including Mount Rainier, the downtown skyline, a totem pole, and the lively waterfront. Set against a warm gradient blending coral orange, bright yellow, and soft blue tones, this design functions as a vibrant piece of vintage Americana. Our made-to-measure mural wallpapers are PVC-free and printed on paper with a subtle physical structure.

In the room

Because the motif is anchored by large typographic lettering and intricate scenic illustrations within each letter, we see this working best on an open, relatively uninterrupted feature wall. In a living room or a dedicated entertaining space in a holiday home, placing the mural behind a sofa or along a primary feature wall allows the complete postcard layout to remain legible. The high visual energy of the coral and yellow gradient naturally draws the eye, making it particularly effective where the wallpaper is intended to serve as the main graphic focal point of the room.

Styling it

To balance the bold graphic quality and bright palette of this design, we suggest pairing it with clean-lined furniture that does not compete with the scenic detail.

• Mid-century modern or retro-inspired furniture pieces in warm wood tones, such as teak or medium oak, harmonise naturally with the 1930s Americana aesthetic.
• Neutral upholstery in off-white, muted grey, or soft denim blue grounds the space while allowing the saturated coral and yellow backdrop to stand out.
• Simple black metal accents in lighting or table frames provide a crisp, modern outline that echoes the graphic typography of the print.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper's palette is defined by a vibrant backdrop of coral orange and warm yellow transitioning into cool sky blue, framed by crisp white lettering. When planning the rest of the space, we recommend drawing from the cooler tones in the design, such as soft slate blue or muted navy, for adjoining walls or larger textiles to balance the warmth of the orange. Alternatively, warm off-white or creamy neutral paint on trim and surrounding surfaces will keep the overall room bright while giving the central motif room to breathe.
