Wallpaper & Fabric 50's Patterns

The 1950s, a very inspiring period for our designers, showing up in many of our wallpapers

Le Presse Papier is particularly fond of the 1950s, we offer a wide selection of motifs inspired by the fifties, 50 vintage...

This period was marked by the revolutions of style and shape in the furniture design, architecture and decoration.

It was wonderfully innovative in the field of wallpaper and fabric designs. It remains a very inspiring post-war period nowadays because of the new and timeless shape invented.

It recalls the modernist houses, the compass feet, the clear colours of formica but also many great artists like: Jacques Tati, Le Corbusier, Jean Prouvé, Marilyn Monroe, Fred Astaire, Audrey Hepburn, Sofia Delaunay, Betty Bage, Chuck Berry, Charles Eames, Elvis... and many others.

Always contemporary and constantly reinterpreted, the design of the 1950s has survived the decades without ever going out of date.
