Wallpaper - Greetings from Boston - Screenprint Postcard

Our Greetings from Boston wallpaper captures the unmistakable charm of vintage American travel graphics with its classic large-letter postcard motif by The Tichnor Brothers. Each bold letter spells out the city's name while framing distinctive architectural landmarks and historic scenes, set against an energetic gradient backdrop of bright sky blue and warm orange. The screenprint-inspired graphic character and vibrant colour contrast give this design an immediate sense of nostalgia and playful Americana style. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it offers an eye-catching way to bring travel heritage and graphic personality to a feature wall.

In the room

Because the artwork is composed as a single, bold graphic statement, we see this wall mural working especially well on an uninterrupted focal wall. In a living room, placing it behind a low-profile sofa lets the full typography remain visible across the space, creating a lively conversation piece. The strong horizontal composition also suits a welcoming entryway or hallway, where the vibrant motif greets you the moment you walk through the door.

In a vacation home or casual social space, the design brings an upbeat, travel-inspired mood without overwhelming the rest of the room. Giving the pattern generous breathing room helps the detailed landmarks inside each letter stand out clearly.

Styling it

When styling around such a colourful, graphic mural, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture relatively clean-lined to let the postcard typography take centre stage. Mid-century modern pieces or simple vintage-inspired shapes pair naturally with the 1940s Americana feel of the print.

Warm wood tones, such as teak or medium oak, complement the warm orange glow in the lower part of the design, while keeping the overall room grounded and comfortable. For accent elements, simple painted finishes or understated textiles work best, allowing the lively palette of the wall to drive the room's energy.

Colour combinations

The design centres around a striking contrast between vivid sky blue in the upper half and warm sunset orange across the lower section, complemented by multicoloured architectural details within the lettering.

To create a balanced scheme, pair this mural with soft, neutral off-white or light warm grey on adjacent walls to keep the focus on the artwork. If you prefer a bolder, more enveloping palette, echoing the sky blue on adjoining woodwork or drawing out the warm orange through decorative cushions and ceramic accents ties the entire space together effortlessly.
