Wallpaper - Memphis Tennessee Skyline Purple & Gold

Our Memphis Tennessee Skyline Purple & Gold wallpaper features an artistic silhouette of the Memphis city skyline, created by Michael Tompsett. Set against a clean, open white background, the architectural forms, including the Hernando de Soto Bridge and prominent downtown landmarks, emerge through expressive watercolor-like splatters and painterly stains. Rich dark mulberry purple blends into warm, earthy gold and ochre tones, grounding the bottom half of the composition while leaving generous negative space above. Our wall murals are made-to-measure to your exact wall dimensions, printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making them straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because the skyline sits across the lower portion of the design, this wallpaper works particularly well on an uninterrupted feature wall in a living room or home office. Placing the mural behind a low-profile sofa, a credenza, or a desk allows the detailed architectural contours and dripping paint effects to remain visible without feeling crowded. The large area of white space at the top keeps the upper wall open, making it an excellent match for rooms with standard or lower ceilings where you want visual weight anchored lower down.

Styling it

We recommend styling this design in contemporary or eclectic spaces where its expressive, artistic character can take center stage. Pair the wallpaper with clean-lined furniture in matte black or dark walnut to echo the deeper purple and shadowy tones of the silhouette. To balance the vibrant gold accents within the motif, subtle brass hardware, minimalist floor lamps, or warm amber decorative glassware create an intentional visual connection without overwhelming the room. Keeping surrounding textiles relatively simple ensures the focal point remains on the skyline artwork.

Colour combinations

The artwork itself relies on a striking contrast between deep mulberry purple, warm earthy ochre, and a crisp white background. When painting surrounding walls or selecting large interior elements, consider soft, muted off-whites that blend seamlessly into the mural's background. For a richer, more moody environment, deep plum, aubergine, or warm taupe on adjacent walls will draw out the darker watercolor tones in the cityscape.
