Wallpaper - Roadside II

Our Roadside II wallpaper, created by Veronique Charron, brings a spirited retro feel to the wall through vintage-inspired roadside graphics and bold illustration. A central green cactus stands among colourful geometric signs reading "Home Sweet & Wild Home", anchored by a prominent orange arrow and scattered retro sparkles in yellow, teal, and peach. The composition rests against a textured-looking beige background that balances the lively palette of coral, orange, teal, and green. Made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it works wonderfully as an accent wall in entryways, living rooms, and creative spaces.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well as a focal feature wall where its graphic composition and typography have room to be read clearly. In a living room, placing it along a main seating wall or behind a low credenza allows the full height of the cactus and sign motif to remain visible. In an entryway, hallway, or staircase landing, the playful direction of the arrow and the welcoming quote create an inviting, energetic first impression. The warm beige backdrop keeps the overall contrast grounded, so the design brings character without feeling visually chaotic in smaller transitional zones.

Styling it

Because this design carries strong mid-century and 1970s revival energy, we like pairing it with warm-toned wood furniture and clean, low-profile silhouettes. Mid-century credenzas, simple benches, or retro lounge chairs in teak or warm oak complement the nostalgic aesthetic without competing with the bold shapes. Keep surrounding decorative objects relatively uncluttered so the graphic lettering and starbursts remain the main visual focus.

Colour combinations

The motif combines vibrant orange, coral, and teal alongside vivid green, soft peach, and bright yellow over a warm beige ground. For surrounding walls, we recommend pulling the warm neutral beige outward to create a seamless transition around the room. If you prefer more definition, soft coral or muted terracotta accents on adjacent surfaces pick up the tones of the lettering, while deep olive or forest green on trim or furniture anchors the cactus motif.
