Wallpaper - Riga Latvia Skyline Blue & Bronze

Designed by Michael Tompsett, this architectural skyline wallpaper brings the landmarks of Riga together in an expressive watercolor-inspired silhouette. Deep navy, indigo, and teal bleed into rich bronze, amber, and burnt rust tones, set crisply against an open white background. Distinctive city silhouettes, including the cables of the Vanšu Bridge alongside historic spires and towers, are rendered with energetic paint splatters and fluid washes. Our mural wallpapers are made-to-measure to fit your exact wall dimensions on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well on a main feature wall in a living room or a dedicated home office. Because the skyline spans horizontally across the lower and middle composition, leaving generous white space above, it anchors the room without overwhelming the upper walls. In a living room, placing this wallpaper along an uninterrupted wall behind a low sofa allows the full panoramic profile of the cityscape to remain clearly visible. In a study or home office, running the horizontal silhouette across the wall behind a desk creates a thoughtful focal point that feels creative yet uncluttered.

Styling it

To balance the energetic paint washes and strong silhouette of the cityscape, we suggest keeping surrounding furniture clean-lined and contemporary. Low-profile credenzas or sofas in neutral tones let the artwork remain the primary focus. Deep bronze, black metal, or dark wooden pieces echo the rich, darker accents in the skyline and ground the room nicely. If you want to introduce additional warmth, bring in subtle metallic finishes like antique brass or brushed bronze through desk lamps or simple picture frames nearby.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper itself features a striking contrast between cool indigo, slate, and navy blue tones against warm ochre, amber, and bronze washes, all balanced on a crisp white backdrop. To complement these tones on adjacent walls or large furniture pieces, soft warm whites, pale greys, or muted sandstone work effortlessly to keep the space open and light. If you prefer a bolder, moodier atmosphere, pull the deep navy or petrol blue from the bottom of the motif into painted woodwork, built-in shelving, or upholstery.
