Wallpaper - Greetings from Lake Sunset - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Lake Sunset wallpaper brings the nostalgic charm of classic 1930s postcard art to a full-wall scale. The composition features a glowing orange and sunshine yellow sky meeting calm, rippling water at the horizon, framed on one side by the silhouette of a leafy green tree and anchored by distant landforms. Created in collaboration with imagery from The Tichnor Brothers collection, the design has a distinctive screenprint-style character with delicate visual striations and a block-print aesthetic. As with all Wallism wallpapers, 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

In a living room, we see this scenic landscape working naturally as a primary feature wall behind a sofa or across a main sitting area. The horizontal spread of the horizon line and the expansive golden sky give the room a sense of visual depth, while the silhouetted tree on one side helps frame the space. It also feels very much at home in a dedicated meditation room, quiet study, or a holiday cottage where the warm sunset tones and peaceful lake vista set a restful visual tone. Because the artwork relies on a clear focal horizon and scenic composition, it benefits from a relatively uninterrupted wall where the full landscape can unfold without being heavily obscured by high storage units.

Styling it

To let the vintage character and golden palette lead the interior, we suggest balancing the wall with simple, unadorned furniture shapes rather than competing patterns.

• Ground the room with warm, mid-tone wooden furniture, such as walnut or teak, which complements the rich amber and yellow tones in the sky.
• Choose plain upholstery and textiles in soft natural tones, such as unbleached cotton or muted canvas, keeping large surrounding fabrics quiet so the mural wallpapers remain the visual focus.
• Incorporate subtle matte black or dark bronze metal accents in lighting or table frames to echo the strong silhouette of the tree and foreground shoreline.

Colour combinations

The design is defined by its warm palette of glowing orange, sunshine yellow, and soft water blues, grounded by deep olive green in the foliage and dark silhouettes along the shore. For adjacent painted walls, we recommend pulling out a soft, warm off-white or a very pale honeyed cream to keep the room light without jarring against the golden sky. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, a muted deep olive or warm moss green drawn from the leafy tree silhouette creates a handsome, cohesive contrast on adjacent woodwork, panelling, or skirting.
