Wallpaper - Roadster Plans

Our Roadster Plans wallpaper, created by artist Avery Tillmon, captures the spirit of vintage automotive drafting. The design centers on a 1930s-style sports roadster rendered in rich emerald green, surrounded by technical sketches, overhead schematics, and handwritten engineering notes on a warm, weathered parchment ground. The contrast between precise drafting linework and painterly gouache-style color gives this wall mural a refined, nostalgic presence. Like all our mural wallpapers, it is custom made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working exceptionally well in spaces dedicated to focus, reading, and personal projects, such as a home office, private study, or home library. The composition features a bold frontal vehicle view anchored low in the frame, balanced by lighter technical line drawings and annotations across the upper sections.

Because the primary visual weight sits near the bottom center, we recommend placing this design on a main wall behind a desk or reading chair where the emerald car body remains visible. On an uninterrupted wall, the drafting lines extend comfortably upward, creating a sense of height and workshop character without overwhelming the room.

Styling it

To complement the vintage motoring motif, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with warm, tailored furnishings that reflect its classic mid-century and retro craftsmanship.

• Choose warm wood furniture in tones like walnut, warm oak, or stained teak to echo the grounded, historic feel of the drafting table aesthetic.
• Introduce dark metal finishes, such as matte black iron or antiqued brass, on desk lamps and shelving brackets to align with the fine technical lines in the artwork.
• Keep surrounding upholstery understated, using charcoal wool, cognac leather, or deep olive fabrics that let the emerald green front of the car stand out as the primary focal point.

Color combinations

The artwork is defined by its deep emerald green vehicle body, warm off-white drafting background, and soft charcoal-to-sepia pencil notes, accented with warm ochre and chrome highlights on the grille and license plate.

For adjoining painted walls and trim, we like using warm ivory, muted parchment, or soft putty tones that extend the paper background naturally into the rest of the room. If you want a moodier, more enveloping space, a deep forest green or rich charcoal gray drawn directly from the car's paintwork makes an excellent pairing for painted millwork, baseboards, or built-in bookshelves.
