Wallpaper - Thun Switzerland Skyline Purple & Gold

Our Thun Switzerland Skyline Purple & Gold wallpaper captures the historic silhouette of Thun through expressive watercolour textures and rich, earthy tones. Created by artist Michael Tompsett, this design brings together deep purple, dark mulberry, and warm golden ochre across a clean white background. What we particularly like is the balance between architectural detail and fluid paint splatters, giving the iconic towers and bridges an artistic, dreamy quality. Printed made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, it creates a striking focal point while remaining straightforward to hang.

In the room

Because the skyline runs horizontally across the lower and central portion of the wall, we see this working especially well on an uninterrupted feature wall in a living room or a dedicated home office study. Positioned behind a low-profile sofa, a credenza, or a clean-lined desk, the crisp architectural profile has enough open space above it to let the room feel airy and expansive. In larger living areas, the horizontal band anchors the space without overwhelming adjacent walls, making it an ideal choice when you want a distinct artistic statement.

Styling it

To complement the rich watercolour character of this mural, we recommend keeping surrounding elements clean and purposeful:

• Choose furniture with low horizontal profiles, such as mid-century sideboards or low-backed seating, so the silhouette of the Swiss landmark remains visible.
• Introduce dark timber finishes or matte black accents to ground the deeper mulberry and purple tones in the lower paint splatters.
• Incorporate brass or warm ochre accents in lighting or decorative pieces to echo the golden tones in the skyline.

Colour combinations

The palette of our wallpaper is anchored by deep purple, dark mulberry, and rich golden ochre, set against a crisp white backdrop. When selecting surrounding colours for adjoining walls or woodwork, we suggest pulling from the warmer earthy hues with soft linen, cream, or muted sand tones to maintain a gentle contrast. If you prefer a bolder interior direction, a deep plum or charcoal on an accent trim can mirror the darker pigment clusters along the base of the design.
