Wallpaper - Phoenix Skyline Purple & Gold

Our Phoenix Skyline Purple & Gold wallpaper brings an expressive architectural silhouette into the home, created by Michael Tompsett. The design captures the city skyline through dynamic watercolour-style splatters, drips, and ink bleeds, pairing deep purple and dark mulberry tones with warm golden ochre against a clean white backdrop. What we particularly like is how the sharp geometry of the urban profile meets fluid, organic paint textures. Made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings an artistic statement to contemporary interiors.

In the room

We see this design working especially well across a main feature wall in a living room or a dedicated home office. Because the architectural skyline forms a horizontal band anchored across the middle and lower portion of the wall, it benefits from a wider, relatively uninterrupted surface where the full urban silhouette can unfold. In a living room, placing this mural wallpaper behind a low-profile sofa allows the expressive splash details to remain visible while keeping the upper wall feeling light and open. In a study or home office, positioning the design behind a desk creates an engaging, artistic backdrop that introduces colour without overwhelming the workspace.

Styling it

The expressive nature of the watercolour splashes calls for furniture with clean lines and grounded forms to keep the room feeling balanced. We would pair this wallpaper with contemporary or eclectic maximalist interiors, using mid-tone or dark wood furniture that echoes the deeper pigments in the skyline. Simple upholstery in muted tones allows the vibrant mulberry and gold palette on the wall to stand out as the primary focal point. To complement the fluid paint splashes, introducing a few warm metallic accents, such as brushed brass or bronze lighting fixtures, connects naturally with the golden tones of the print.

Colour combinations

The motif is defined by rich dark mulberry, saturated purple, and glowing golden ochre, all set against a crisp white background. When decorating around the wallpaper, we recommend echoing these tones through adjacent painted surfaces and accessories. Soft warm whites or pale neutral greys on surrounding walls maintain the airy balance of the upper artwork. For a richer, more enveloping feel, drawing out the deep purple or dark mulberry onto a nearby accent piece or woodwork creates a sophisticated tonal harmony, while ochre or mustard soft furnishings highlight the warmer paint splatters within the cityscape.
