Seventies Retro Wallpaper for Bedrooms
For a seventies retro bedroom, use stripes, abstract wallpaper – we have 31 designs suggested for bedrooms. Rattan and smoked glass lamps are period-appropriate. Calming palettes and organic patterns help bedrooms feel restful.
Bedrooms are the perfect place to experiment because they are private and lived in mostly at night. A papered wall behind the bed acts like an oversized headboard.
