Wallpaper - Greetings from Oregon Coast - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Oregon Coast wallpaper captures a scenic stretch of coastline in the distinctive style of a vintage 1930s screenprint postcard by The Tichnor Brothers. Rugged cliffs, rolling green hills, and a winding coastal highway lead the eye toward the open Pacific horizon, where gentle waves meet the shore under a pale sky dotted with soft clouds. Rich earthy tones across the rock faces balance naturally against the deep blue of the ocean, punctuated by touches of burnt orange that give the motif its nostalgic warmth. Produced as a made-to-measure mural, this PVC-free design features a subtle paper texture and is straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because the scenic landscape unfolds with a strong sense of horizon and distance, we like giving this design a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall where the full perspective can breathe. In a living room or a dedicated sitting area of a vacation home, it works especially well as a focal accent behind a low sofa or credenza. Placing lower furniture along the wall keeps the winding road and dramatic cliffside visible, letting the vintage screenprint aesthetic anchor the room without feeling visually crowded.

Styling it

The nostalgic 1930s screenprint character pairs naturally with mid-century modern or warm vintage-inspired furnishings. We would lean into simple furniture profiles with clean silhouettes so the graphic landscape remains the primary visual statement in the space.

Warm wood tones like walnut or teak bring out the earthy base of the coastal cliffs, while unlacquered brass or matte black accents echo the graphic line quality of early twentieth-century printmaking. Keeping surrounding upholstery relatively quiet in plain weaves or muted textures allows the burnt orange and ocean tones in the wallpaper to lead the color story.

Color combinations

The palette within our design balances cool ocean blues and soft sky tones with warm burnt orange, lush greens, and earthy rock shades. To create a cohesive look across adjacent painted walls and architectural trim, we recommend pulling from the softer, neutral elements of the landscape.

A muted sandy greige, off-white, or warm stone creates a gentle transition that lets the coastal vista stand out. For spaces where you want a richer, more enveloping feel, echoing the deep ocean blue or burnt orange on a nearby accent chair, window drape, or built-in shelving ties the entire room together effortlessly.
