Wallpaper - Pudong Sunrise BW

A striking black and white photographic skyline rises above still waters in our Pudong Sunrise BW wallpaper, created by photographer Jan Becke. Tall skyscrapers create a powerful urban composition, anchored by the distinctive spherical profile of the Oriental Pearl Tower and mirrored in sharp reflection across the calm river below. Rendered in a refined monochromatic palette of smoke and neutral grey tones, the design balances sharp architectural geometry with open water and clean skies. Our mural wallpapers are made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle paper structure, giving you an easy-to-hang urban vista tailored to your wall dimensions.

In the room

Because of the strong horizontal division created by the waterline and the height of the skyscrapers, we see this wall mural working particularly well on a wide, uninterrupted wall in a home office or study. Giving the composition sufficient width ensures both the towering skyline and its complete reflection remain visible without interruption. In a study setting, placing a low-profile desk or seating area along the lower half of the wall lets the architectural verticality draw the eye upward, maintaining a sense of scale and calm focus.

Styling it

The sharp lines and monochromatic photographic character naturally complement contemporary and minimalist interiors. We recommend pairing the wallpaper with clean-lined furniture that shares its architectural restraint, such as matte black metal framing, charcoal upholstery, or slender shelving. To keep the visual focus on the skyline, avoid overly ornate decorative details and introduce subtle texture through smooth concrete accents, polished stone, or simple woven textiles in quiet, unpatterned finishes.

Colour combinations

The motif itself relies entirely on neutral tones, ranging from deep charcoal and smoke through mid-greys to crisp pale highlights in the sky and water. Around it, we suggest working with cool neutrals like off-white, soft ash, or slate grey on adjacent walls and woodwork to maintain a clean, modern aesthetic. For a warmer touch, deep muted charcoal cabinetry or dark stained finishes provide grounding contrast without competing with the monochromatic photography.
