Wallpaper - Roadside II

Our Roadside II wallpaper by Veronique Charron brings together mid-century roadside nostalgia and playful graphic design. A stylised green cactus stands alongside retro geometric signs spelling out "Home Sweet & Wild Home", highlighted by a bold orange arrow pointing across the scene. Mid-century starbursts and diamond sparkles in yellow, teal, and peach drift across a textured, warm beige background, giving the print its distinctive vintage character. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, making it straightforward to hang.

In the room

With its distinct focal points and expressive mid-century typography, we see this design working especially well as an accent wall in a living room, hallway, or entryway. The horizontal pull of the large arrow and the open layout of the signs mean the motif benefits from a wall where the main elements can sit at eye level without being obscured by tall bookcases or bulky cupboards. In an entryway or hall, placing the mural on the main wall opposite the front door creates an immediate sense of warmth and personality. For living areas, positioning it behind a low-profile sofa or media unit allows the full composition of the signs, sparkles, and cactus to remain visible.

Styling it

Because the artwork carries strong graphic shapes and lively retro lettering, we suggest balancing the space with furniture that shares its mid-century roots without competing for attention:

• Pair the design with warm wood furniture, such as teak or medium oak sideboards with clean horizontal lines and tapered legs.
• Choose upholstered seating in solid, textured neutrals like oatmeal or warm grey, letting the colourful signs remain the central focus of the room.
• Bring in a few accents in matte black metal, such as a slender floor lamp or simple picture frames on adjacent walls, to ground the bright coral and teal accents.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a balanced retro palette anchored by a soft, warm beige background, vibrant cactus green, coral orange, teal, and subtle peach and yellow highlights. For surrounding walls, trim, or ceilings, we recommend picking up on the warm undertones of the background with a soft warm white or pale sand. If you want to create a bolder, cohesive look across the entire space, pulling the muted teal or deep olive green from the motif onto neighbouring painted walls or cabinetry creates a grounded, tailored interior.
