Cones wallpaper from Little Greene: Playful 50s charm with a modern twist

The Cones wallpaper from the 20th Century Papers collection by Little Greene is an ode to the characteristic retro style of the 50s. Originally from the wallpaper book Onward Décor , this design brings together nostalgia and playfulness in a contemporary, minimalist version. Perfect for lovers of vintage design with a modern twist.

A classic 50s motif

The original design of Cones comes from the decorative archive Onward Décor , a well-known wallpaper book from the 1950s. Characteristic were the graphic cones, framed by a border of lines and dots — typical of the geometric style of that time. These playful elements gave the design a cheerful, dynamic look.

Modern reinterpretation by Little Greene himself

In the contemporary version, Little Greene chose to remove the border. This makes the cone motif appear simpler and cleaner, while retaining its original character. The result? A versatile, retro-inspired wallpaper that fits perfectly into both modern and classic interiors.

A subtle eye-catcher

Cones is a design that stands out without being overwhelming. The graphic cones create rhythm and structure, while the colour options provide variation in atmosphere. Ideal for accent walls in living rooms, home offices or kitchens – but also surprisingly stylish in a hallway or stairwell.

The Cones wallpaper by Little Greene is a playful retro statement with a timeless character. A perfect choice for anyone who loves an interior with personality, history and style.
