Wallpaper - Brussels Belgium Skyline Concrete

In this wallpaper mural, artist Michael Tompsett captures the Brussels skyline through a striking silhouette rendered with paint-splatter and ink-bleed effects along the lower baseline. Recognisable landmarks such as the Atomium, the Law Courts of Brussels, and modern high-rises emerge in deep charcoal grey against a weathered, neutral concrete-look backdrop. The horizontal composition creates an architectural horizon that anchors the lower-to-middle portion of the wall, while generous open space above lets the mottled texture breathe. Made to measure and completely PVC-free, our wallpaper brings a graphic, contemporary urban character to interior spaces.

In the room

We see this skyline design working exceptionally well as a feature wall in a living room or a dedicated home office. Because the architectural detail runs horizontally along the center of the mural, positioning it along a wider, relatively uninterrupted wall allows the full progression of the city skyline to be appreciated. In a living room, placing this wallpaper behind a low-profile sofa lets the skyline sit comfortably above the furniture line, keeping the silhouettes and paint drips visible. In a home office, it creates an inspiring, artistic backdrop behind a desk, adding depth without visual clutter thanks to the quiet neutral ground above the skyline.

Styling it

The graphic contrast between charcoal ink and concrete texture lends itself naturally to contemporary, industrial, or minimalist interiors. We would lean into the architectural feel by styling the room with clean-lined furniture and simple silhouettes that echo the urban theme without competing with the mural.

• Choose darker painted metals or matte black finishes on lighting, shelving, or table frames to tie in with the deep charcoal silhouette of the buildings.
• Pair the wallpaper with muted textiles and uncluttered surfaces so the expressive ink splatters remain the focal point of the space.
• Opt for mid-toned or natural timber furniture to introduce warmth and soften the cool urban character of the concrete-textured background.

Colour combinations

The palette of our design is grounded in neutral concrete tones, pale stone greys, and deep charcoal black. Around this mural, we recommend keeping surrounding painted walls in soft off-whites, warm pale greys, or muted stone shades that harmonize with the background texture. For a bolder, moodier feel, an adjacent wall painted in deep charcoal or dark slate grey creates a seamless, enveloping atmosphere that highlights the crispness of the city silhouette.
