Green Mid-Century Wallpaper Feature Wall Ideas
Mid-century motifs – atomic stars, boomerangs and pebbles – capture the optimism of 1950s design.
A single feature wall lets you enjoy a bold design while keeping the rest of the room calm and painted.
Green is the colour of balance and renewal, and it brings a sense of the outdoors into any room.
