Installation
Simple steps for the best long-lasting results
PREPARE THE WALL
Ensure the wall is clean, dry, smooth and stable. Remove dust, grease, loose paint and old wallpaper. Repair any holes or cracks.
CHECK PAINT
The paint should be fully cured (minimum 3–4 weeks). Use a matte or eggshell finish. Avoid fresh, damp or peeling paint.
ALIGN & APPLY
Check the panel order and pattern alignment, then apply each panel carefully with a soft smoother to remove bubbles and secure the edges.
DRY & SET
Allow the wallpaper to set for 24–48 hours. Avoid washing, heavy cleaning or placing items against the wall during this time.
ROOM CONDITIONS: Install wallpaper in normal room conditions on a clean, dry, smooth wall with fully cured paint. Avoid very cold, hot, humid, damp, or freshly painted surfaces for the best long-lasting result.
Frequently Asked Questions
What defines mid-century design?
Mid-century murals often feature geometric shapes, atomic patterns, abstract motifs, and warm color palettes like mustard, olive, teal, and burnt orange. These designs reflect the optimistic, functional, and artistic spirit of the 1950s–70s.
Is mid century modern out of style?
Not at all. Mid-century modern remains a popular and versatile design style. Its clean lines, functional forms, and warm tones continue to influence both furniture and wallpaper trends. While certain patterns or colors may evolve.
Does mid-century modern use wallpaper?
Yes, wallpaper was a key feature in mid-century interiors. Bold geometrics, abstract shapes, atomic motifs, and muted colors were often used to add personality to walls. Today, modern reinterpretations of these patterns help bring mid-century charm into contemporary spaces.
How do I style a room with mid century wallpaper?
Try pairing it with walnut or teak furniture, brass accents, cone lamps, or clean-lined upholstery. Keep clutter minimal, and use a few vintage-inspired pieces to enhance the mural’s nostalgic appeal.
Can mid century wallpaper be subtle?
Yes. Not all mid century murals are bold. You can find designs with soft curves, neutral tones, or faded patterns that still bring retro charm without dominating the space.
