Wallpaper - Lexington Views

Our Lexington Views wallpaper mural captures the striking energy and architectural verticality of Midtown Manhattan, photographed by Jan Becke. Looking down Lexington Avenue toward the iconic spire of the Chrysler Building, the composition draws the eye past classic stone facades, American flags, and the dynamic movement of city traffic below. Warm beige, sandy limestone, and earthy brick tones dominate the towering street canyon, balanced by the clear blue sky and crisp architectural lines above. Produced as a made-to-measure, PVC-free wallpaper with a subtle structure in the paper, this photographic mural brings an authentic sense of urban depth and scale to an interior wall.

In the room

Because the composition carries strong perspective and vertical lines, we particularly like using this mural on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full street canyon and rising skyscraper can be seen without heavy obstruction. In a living room, dining space, or home office, it creates an expansive focal point that opens up the visual depth of the room. The architectural detail and receding perspective work especially well across a main feature wall, such as behind a low-profile sofa or along an open dining area, where the vertical rhythm of the buildings can add height to the space.

Styling it

To let the dynamic New York cityscape remain the central focus, we suggest pairing the wallpaper with clean, contemporary furnishings and structured forms.

• Low-slung furniture with straightforward silhouettes helps keep the street-level details and lower perspective lines visible.
• Dark metal accents, such as blackened steel or bronze hardware, echo the graphic street elements and window frames in the photograph.
• Natural materials in neutral tones, including light ash, warm oak, or textured gray upholstery, ground the space without competing with the architectural pattern.

Colour combinations

The palette of the design is built around earthy stone neutrals, warm beige brickwork, and soft golden-brown building tones, contrasted by the clear blue sky and vivid red, white, and blue accents from the street flags. When decorating around the wallpaper, we recommend drawing on the neutral warmth of the masonry with soft off-white, warm sand, or stone gray paint on adjacent walls. For a bolder, more graphic interior, deep charcoal or muted slate blue accents can reflect the city street shadows and sky, tying the whole room together naturally.
