Wallpaper - Caracas Skyline Purple & Gold

Created by Michael Tompsett, this city skyline wallpaper captures the architectural profile of Caracas through expressive watercolor-inspired splatters and painterly texture. The composition anchors deep dark mulberry purple and rich gold across the lower and middle ground, setting the cityscape against an open white background. The blend of historic domes, towers, and modern skyscrapers creates a dynamic horizontal silhouette with dramatic paint drips that give the artwork a distinctive artistic character. Our custom wallpapers are made-to-measure and PVC-free, printed on paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the skyline sits across the lower half with generous negative space above, we see this wall mural working particularly well on a feature wall in a living room or home office. In a living room, placing the design behind a low-profile sofa lets the architectural silhouettes rise cleanly above the furniture while keeping the upper wall airy. For a home office or study, positioning the mural along the main uninterrupted wall creates a dramatic, cultured focal point that does not overwhelm the room. The horizontal rhythm of the skyline also makes it well suited to wider walls where the complete progression of landmarks can unfold naturally.

Styling it

We would pair this expressive artwork with contemporary furniture that features clean, tailored lines to balance the loose watercolor splatters. Keeping surrounding pieces in muted, solid finishes helps ground the room without competing with the bold purple and gold details. If you incorporate metal finishes into lighting or shelving, warm bronze or brushed brass echoes the golden tones in the motif nicely.

Colour combinations

Our design centers on rich dark mulberry purple, warm gold, and ochre accents set against crisp white. Around the wallpaper, we suggest keeping adjacent walls in an off-white or soft warm gray to maintain the openness of the background. For larger furniture or upholstery, deep charcoal, muted plum, or rich cream provides a balanced base that highlights the vibrant purple and gold tones.
