Seventies Retro Wallpaper for Kitchens
For a seventies retro kitchen, use geometric, mid-century wallpaper – we have 59 designs suggested for kitchens. Rattan and smoked glass lamps are period-appropriate. A breakfast nook or dining end of the kitchen is the ideal spot.
Wallpaper in kitchens adds personality to a room dominated by hard surfaces. Choose a scrubbable paper and keep it away from direct splashes behind hobs and sinks.
