Wallpaper - Greetings from the Start - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from the Start wallpaper captures an aerial perspective of a mid-century airport terminal in a vintage screenprint postcard style. At the center of the composition, a large circular fountain with water jets is framed by a curved parking area and the terminal's distinctive arched roofline, while a dark control tower overlooks the tarmac and open runways stretching toward a clear horizon. Rendered by The Tichnor Brothers in a quiet palette of soft grays and warm neutrals, this architectural design brings graphic structure and historic charm to an interior. Like all Wallism mural wallpapers, this design is custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well on an uninterrupted wall in a home office, study, or living room where the expansive horizontal layout and aerial geometry have space to unfold. Because the composition features an open horizon line and a balanced aerial vantage point, giving the wallpaper a wider wall behind a desk or sofa allows the architectural detail from the foreground fountain to the distant runways to remain clearly visible. In a hallway or entryway, it adds graphic interest without overwhelming the passage, offering an engaging sense of perspective as you walk past.

Styling it

The clean lines and graphic character of this 1960s screenprint motif pair naturally with mid-century modern furniture, industrial accents, and contemporary decor. We would look to low-profile furniture pieces with simple silhouettes so the lower half of the scene remains largely unobstructed. Matte black metal details echo the dark control tower and linework in the print, while warm walnut or natural wood tones ground the neutral gray backdrop. Keeping surrounding textiles solid and unpatterned allows the aerial composition to serve as the clear focal point of the space.

Color combinations

The wallpaper is built around a palette of muted grays, soft stone, and neutral tones. To create a cohesive look across adjacent painted walls, we recommend pairing it with warm off-white, pale greige, or soft charcoal. For accent elements in upholstery, curtains, or decorative objects, deeper slate gray or muted olive brings depth to the room while staying true to the vintage, understated feel of the original screenprint.
