Wallpaper - Map of Stockholm

Our Map of Stockholm wallpaper turns the geography of the Swedish capital into an intricate, screenprint-inspired cartographic mural. Designed by Tish11, the motif captures the sprawling archipelago, waterways, and detailed street grids in a clean, high-contrast palette of deep navy blue, soft grey water bodies, and crisp white road networks. The composition balances open expanses of water with dense, fine linework across the islands, giving the design an architectural and graphic presence. Like all of our wallpapers, this mural is made-to-measure to your specific wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well in a dedicated home office, study, or living room. The fine network of streets and waterways invites closer inspection, making it an engaging focal point across a wider, uninterrupted wall. In a study or workspace, placing the wallpaper behind a desk creates an orderly, thoughtful backdrop that feels calm yet visually detailed. In a living room setting, giving the design a primary feature wall behind a low-profile sofa allows the full scope of the city layout and archipelago to remain visible across the room.

Styling it

Because the cartographic linework carries a strong graphic rhythm, we recommend keeping surrounding furniture relatively clean-lined and uncluttered. Mid-toned or lighter woods work beautifully against the deep navy backdrop, softening the contrast without competing with the street details. For seating and larger upholstered pieces, tailored fabrics in muted charcoal, warm stone, or simple navy continue the structured feel, letting the intricate map remain the central visual feature of the room.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built on a defined palette of deep navy blue, cool grey, and sharp white. To complement the navy foundation, we suggest pairing the wall with surrounding paint in muted off-whites, architectural light greys, or rich inky blues for a cohesive, enveloping tone. Deep charcoal or matte slate grey accents across shelving and cabinetry echo the darker grounds, while pale stone or chalky white trims keep the adjacent walls crisp and bright.
