Wallpaper - Metropolitan Vista

Our Metropolitan Vista wallpaper captures a sweeping aerial perspective of a modern city skyline, photographed by Steve Heap. Glass skyscrapers reach up towards a clear sky blue, while a winding river fringed with green trees brings an organic balance alongside the structured geometry of highways and high-rises. Dominated by light blue, soft grey, green, and crisp white architectural reflections, this design brings an open sense of depth and urban scale to interior spaces. Printed to your exact dimensions, our wallpapers are PVC-free and produced on a paper with a subtle physical structure that is straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because of its broad aerial perspective and architectural detail, we particularly like this design on a wider, relatively uninterrupted feature wall. In a living room, giving the wallpaper space behind a main sofa or along an open wall allows the skyline and flowing river to unfold without feeling cut off. The airy blue sky at the top of the composition helps draw the eye upwards, which works well in rooms where you want to maintain a feeling of height and openness.

Styling it

To balance the detailed cityscape, we suggest pairing this design with furniture that has clean, uncomplicated lines. Contemporary silhouettes with slim profiles allow the architectural view to remain the primary focal point of the room.

For surrounding materials, cooler metals like brushed steel or chrome echo the modern glass facades in the photograph. If you want to introduce warmth without competing with the pattern, smooth painted surfaces or neutral upholstery in solid colours create a grounded, comfortable setting.

Colour combinations

The palette within our design centres on sky blue, pale grey, leafy green, and bright architectural highlights.

When choosing paint for adjacent walls or woodwork, we suggest pulling from the cooler tones in the skyline. Soft off-whites, cool slate greys, or muted pale blues create a continuous, harmonious feel around the room. If you prefer to accentuate the natural elements in the image, subtle foliage-inspired greens in surrounding textiles or decorative accents will tie in naturally with the riverside parkland.
