Wallpaper - Greetings from the Lake - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from the Lake wallpaper brings a vintage postcard aesthetic to the wall, showcasing a stately lakeside home under a quiet night sky. Created from original artwork by The Tichnor Brothers, this design features an illuminated house with a bold red roof, glowing windows, and classical white columns mirrored across calm, dark waters. Surrounded by tall, silhouetted trees in deep navy and black tones, the screenprint-inspired composition balances architectural structure with serene rural scenery. Produced as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wall mural, the paper has a subtle physical structure that complements the retro print character while fitting your exact wall dimensions.

In the room

Because of the strong horizontal reflection and deep evening palette, we see this design working exceptionally well as an accent wall in a living room, library, or hallway staircase. In a living room, placing this wallpaper mural across a wide, uninterrupted wall behind a sofa allows the full lakeside reflection and surrounding trees to unfold without visual disruption. In a home library or study, the darker tones create an intimate, atmospheric backdrop that envelops the room in a quiet heritage feel. For staircases and larger entryways, the contrast between the luminous white architectural facade and the deep midnight blues gives the space an immediate sense of scale and depth.

Styling it

To complement the 1930s screenprint aesthetic, we suggest pairing this mural wallpaper with classic or heritage-inspired interior elements that honor its period charm.

• Choose warm, dark wood tones like walnut, mahogany, or vintage oak for bookcases, sideboards, or trim to echo the depth of the dark tree line and architectural columns.
• Incorporate warm lighting fixtures with brass or muted bronze accents to mirror the soft, golden glow radiating from the printed windows.
• Balance the deep navy and black base of the mural with tailored upholstery in understated neutral textiles or deep velvet, letting the vibrant red roof and illuminated facade remain the central focal point.

Color combinations

The wallpaper is defined by rich navy blues, dense blacks, crisp architectural whites, and warm glowing yellows, anchored by the rich red of the roof. When selecting paint colors and furnishings for surrounding surfaces, deep slate or midnight blues create a continuous, wraparound atmosphere. If you prefer more contrast, soft off-white or warm cream on adjacent walls and moldings will cleanly highlight the white columns in the print. To subtly tie the room together, accents in muted rust, brick red, or warm ochre will naturally pick up the warm highlights found within the lakeside home.
