Wallpaper - Greetings from Charleston - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Charleston wallpaper captures classic mid-century Americana through an authentic large-letter postcard design created by The Tichnor Brothers. Across a bold, arched layout, each dimensional block letter frames a distinct scene from Charleston, West Virginia, showcasing riverside cityscapes, architectural landmarks, bridges, and the distinctive gold dome of the State Capitol building. The composition layers cursive script over vivid powder blue, soft green, and warm orange-red striping, creating an unmistakable screenprint character. Produced as a made-to-measure, PVC-free mural wallpaper with a subtle structure in the paper, it brings graphic energy and vintage travel charm to a feature wall.

In the room

Because of the bold, centralised lettering and large graphic scale, we see this wall mural working best on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full phrase and arched typography can be appreciated at a distance. In a living room, dining area, or a dedicated home office, placing the mural behind low furniture, such as a credenza, desk, or sofa, keeps the detailed scenes inside each letter in clear view. It also makes an engaging focal point for a games room, hallway, or holiday home, where the nostalgic travel theme sets a relaxed, characterful tone.

Styling it

When styling a room around such an expressive, graphic design, we suggest balancing the artwork with mid-century modern or retro-inspired furnishings that share its vintage sensibility. Clean-lined furniture in warm wood tones, such as teak or walnut, complements the warm orange and golden accents in the lettering. To let the mural remain the primary visual focus, keep surrounding upholstery and floor coverings relatively simple, choosing textured neutral fabrics or plain, low-pile rugs rather than competing bold patterns.

Colour combinations

The palette is anchored by a soft powder blue sky, fresh meadow green, and energetic stripes of warm orange and red, alongside the architectural colours visible within the letter cutouts. For adjoining walls and painted woodwork, soft warm whites, pale cream, or light powder blue work naturally to extend the background tones without overwhelming the space. If you prefer a richer contrast, deeper accent colours drawn from the motif, such as warm terracotta, burnt orange, or forest green, can be introduced through accent cushions, ceramic table lamps, or painted trim.
