Wallpaper - Mumbai Skyline India Bombay Purple & Gold

Created by artist Michael Tompsett, this architectural wallpaper design captures the Mumbai skyline through an expressive, watercolour-style silhouette. Rendered in deep mulberry purple and warm ochre gold tones against a crisp white background, the composition balances recognisable landmarks with fluid paint splashes and textured splatters. As with all Wallism wallpapers, this design is made to measure to your exact wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, making it straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because the silhouette anchors the lower portion while the upper area remains open white space, this design works especially well on wider, uninterrupted feature walls in a living room or home office. Placing the mural behind a low-backed sofa or a clean-lined desk allows the full architectural profile to remain visible without feeling crowded. The horizontal spread of the skyline brings an expansive feel to modern open-plan spaces, giving the wall a defined focal point while preserving an airy atmosphere overhead.

Styling it

To complement the artistic quality of the skyline, pair this design with contemporary furniture that features clean, unornamented silhouettes. Dark walnut or painted charcoal finishes will ground the richer purple elements, while brushed brass lighting or warm metallic accents subtly pick up the golden ochre tones across the skyline. We recommend keeping nearby wall art minimal so the mural can comfortably remain the primary visual focus of the room.

Colour combinations

The palette within the wallpaper centres on deep mulberry purple and rich gold set against a clean white backdrop. When selecting colours for surrounding walls and woodwork, crisp off-white or light stone greys keep the room bright and let the skyline stand out. For a moodier, more cohesive aesthetic in a dedicated study or seating nook, deep plum, aubergine, or warm taupe on adjacent surfaces will beautifully echo the darker tones in the print.
