Wallpaper - Reims France Skyline Purple & Gold

Our Reims France Skyline Purple & Gold wallpaper by Michael Tompsett translates the historic architecture of Reims into an expressive skyline mural. Set against a clean white backdrop, the city silhouette is rendered in deep purple and dark mulberry watercolor-style washes, blended with warm ochre and golden tones along with splatters and drips. The iconic twin towers of Notre-Dame de Reims rise at the center, flanked by prominent spires, domes, and arcades. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, this wallpaper brings an artistic focal point to any space.

In the room

We see this design working especially well in a living room, study, or home office where the skyline can span a main feature wall. Because the architectural forms and vibrant watercolor splashes occupy the lower two-thirds of the layout while the top remains open and bright, the mural grounds a room without feeling heavy.

In a study or home office, placing this wallpaper along the wall behind a desk or low shelving allows the detailed spires and paint splatters to remain fully visible. For a living room, running the mural across an uninterrupted accent wall creates an eye-catching backdrop behind a sofa or credenza.

Styling it

To let the rich tones and graphic silhouette take the lead, we would keep the surrounding interior relatively clean and contemporary. Furniture with simple, low-profile silhouettes prevents the lower skyline details from being cut off, while dark metal accents echo the deeper purple hues in the print.

We also like pairing this design with warm timber finishes or brass lighting, which naturally pick up the golden ochre washes flowing through the watercolor motif.

Colour combinations

The design is built on a high-contrast palette of deep purple, dark mulberry, warm gold, and ochre against a crisp white background. To complement the wallpaper, consider surrounding walls in soft off-white or light warm grey to mirror the airy upper half of the motif.

For upholstery and accents, rich plum, aubergine, or warm mustard tones create a cohesive look that draws out the varied shades in the city silhouette.
