Wallpaper - Lausanne Switzerland Skyline Blue & Bronze

Designed by Michael Tompsett, this wallpaper captures the architectural profile of Lausanne across a striking horizontal skyline. The composition sets familiar towers, spires, and a lakeside steamer against a clean, open white background, anchored along the bottom by dynamic watercolor-style splatters and ink drips. Deep navy, indigo, and teal blend into warm bronze, amber, and ochre, giving the city panorama an expressive, artistic character. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical structure, it brings graphic energy to a focal wall without overwhelming the space.

In the room

We like this design best on a wide, uninterrupted wall where the full length of the skyline has space to unfold from edge to edge. In a living room or a dedicated study, placing the horizontal horizon line behind a low-profile sofa, sideboard, or desk lets the architectural silhouettes stand out clearly against the airy upper white space. Because the upper portion of the motif is completely light and open, the mural wallpaper adds bold color along the lower third while keeping the overall room feeling bright and spacious.

Styling it

The rich mix of indigo and warm metallic-toned watercolor lends itself naturally to contemporary and eclectic interiors. To let the artwork lead, we recommend pairing it with clean-lined furniture in warm woods or muted tones that echo the lower skyline rather than compete with it.

• Ground the room with low-slung seating or desks in warm wood tones, which pick up the bronze, amber, and ochre splashes along the base of the skyline.
• Incorporate subtle dark metal accents in lighting or table frames to reflect the deep navy and ink-toned silhouettes.
• Keep surrounding upholstery and larger accessories in soft neutral tones so the vibrant color transitions remain the clear focal point.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is defined by its interplay between deep blues, teal, purple undertones, warm bronze, ochre, and crisp white. For adjoining walls and woodwork, soft off-white or light muted greys help transition smoothly from the open upper background. If you prefer a richer palette, pull out the deep navy or dark teal for accent trims or painted shelving. For cushions, throws, or decorative ceramics, touches of terracotta, warm amber, or muted gold will draw out the glowing bronze hues in the splash effect.
