Wallpaper - Preston England Skyline Purple & Gold

Our Preston England Skyline Purple & Gold wallpaper by Michael Tompsett translates the architectural profile of Preston into an expressive skyline mural. Set against an open white backdrop, the city silhouette emerges through painterly splatters and watercolor-like textures in deep mulberry purple, warm gold, and ochre tones. The composition captures notable landmarks with graphic clarity while allowing the lower edge to dissolve into atmospheric paint splashes. Made-to-measure and completely PVC-free, this design brings a vibrant, artistic focal point to any contemporary interior.

In the room

We see this wallpaper working especially well in a living room or a dedicated home office where an accent wall can take centre stage. Because the skyline stretches horizontally across the lower and middle composition, giving it an uninterrupted wall allows the full architectural sequence to be seen from end to end.

In a study or creative workspace, placing the mural behind a desk positions the crisp spires and classical facades in clear view without overwhelming the surrounding space. In a living room setting, positioning the wallpaper behind a low-backed sofa lets the rich watercolour texture ground the seating area while preserving the airy white space above.

Styling it

The rich contrast between deep purple and warm metallic-toned gold gives this design plenty of personality, so we recommend pairing it with considered furniture shapes and clean silhouettes.

• Choose furniture in warm, mid-tone wood or painted matte black to echo the architectural structure of the skyline.
• Introduce brushed brass or antique gold accents through floor lamps, picture frames, or side tables to highlight the golden splatters in the artwork.
• Balance the expressive wall mural with solid, neutral upholstery in cream, ivory, or soft oatmeal so the pattern remains the undisputed hero of the room.

Colour combinations

The design is built around rich, saturated shades of dark mulberry purple, plum, warm gold, and honeyed ochre, balanced by clean white negative space.

To create a cohesive scheme, we suggest painting adjoining walls in a warm off-white or soft biscuit tone that mirrors the upper portion of the mural. If you prefer a richer, more enveloping feel, drawing out the deeper mulberry or a deep aubergine for woodwork, skirting boards, or accent furniture will amplify the drama of the print. Rich mustard or ochre cushions also help carry the golden notes across the wider room.
