Wallpaper - Greetings from Rhode Island - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Rhode Island wallpaper brings classic mid-century graphic travel art to the wall with the distinctive character of a vintage screenprint postcard. Designed around bold block lettering, each letter reveals a vignette of the Ocean State, from coastal sailboats and a sun-soaked beach to grand architecture, gardens, and the State Capitol in Providence. A soft, light purple background illustrated with pink violet blossoms frames the composition, balanced by warm coral and orange tones. We make each mural to measure according to your wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the motif is anchored by large typographic forms and detailed vignettes within each letter, we see this working best on an accent wall where the entire graphic has room to be appreciated. In a vacation home living area, entryway, or creative home office, giving the wallpaper a wide, uninterrupted wall allows the postcard composition to read clearly from across the room while inviting a closer look at the illustrated details.

Styling it

We would pair this expressive design with relatively calm, understated furniture to let the retro artwork carry the visual interest of the room. Mid-century silhouettes and natural light wood furniture complement the 1940s travel aesthetic without competing with the detailed illustrations. Keeping surrounding accents and upholstery in neutral textiles or simple solid tones helps maintain an open, balanced feel around the wall mural.

Color combinations

The wallpaper is built around a palette of warm orange and coral tones set against a light purple background with delicate pink floral accents. For surrounding walls and woodwork, soft off-whites, creamy linen shades, or muted blush pinks create a seamless and airy backdrop. If you prefer to draw out the warmer personality of the motif, subtle peach or terracotta accents in surrounding decor echo the sunlit scenes inside the lettering.
