Wallpaper - Lausanne Switzerland Skyline Blue & Bronze

Our Lausanne Switzerland Skyline Blue & Bronze wallpaper brings an expressive urban silhouette into the home, created in collaboration with artist Michael Tompsett. The design captures the historic architecture and lakefront landmarks of Lausanne across an expansive horizontal composition, set against a crisp white background. A rich watercolour-inspired blend of deep indigo blue, bronze ochre, teal, and warm aubergine forms both the architectural profile and the energetic splatters that bleed downwards along the lower edge. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design offers an artistic, graphic focal point that balances architectural precision with fluid painterly movement.

In the room

We find that horizontal skyline wall murals work best on wider, uninterrupted walls where the complete city profile has room to unfold from end to end. In a living room, placing this mural wallpaper behind a low-profile sofa allows the silhouette to anchor the seating area without having its distinctive towers and spires obscured. The design also makes a striking backdrop in a study or home art studio, where the creative energy of the watercolour splashes can set an inspiring tone across the main feature wall. Because the upper portion of the composition is clean white, it keeps the room feeling open and bright, while the saturated colour concentration in the lower half grounds the surrounding space.

Styling it

When styling around such an expressive mural, we suggest balancing the fluid paint splatters with clean-lined furniture and thoughtful material contrasts. Mid-century modern or contemporary pieces with low horizontal profiles work particularly well, allowing the architectural silhouette to take centre stage. Warm wood tones, such as teak or dark oak, naturally complement the bronze, amber, and deep aubergine shades in the lower artwork. To echo the metallic-leaning bronze and cool indigo tones, subtle accents in antique brass or matte black iron bring an intentional, cohesive feel without competing with the wall.

Colour combinations

The motif itself is defined by a dynamic interplay of deep indigo, rich bronze, burnt orange, teal, and soft violet against an off-white field. For adjoining painted walls and woodwork, a crisp, clean white provides a seamless continuation of the wallpaper's upper background, keeping the room expansive. Alternatively, picking out the deep navy or muted bronze-ochre for an accent alcove, trim, or upholstery creates a moodier, enveloping palette that draws direct inspiration from the city silhouette.
