Wallpaper - Egham England Skyline Purple & Gold

Our Egham England Skyline Purple & Gold wallpaper brings an artistic skyline composition to life through a rich blend of deep mulberry purple and warm golden ochre tones. Designed by Michael Tompsett, the motif captures recognisable architectural silhouettes set against an expressive, watercolour-like splatter across the lower edge. Crisp white negative space above gives the architectural detail room to breathe while grounding the design along the bottom. Made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it offers a distinctive way to bring local character and rich colour into a room.

In the room

Because the artwork is weighted along the bottom and opens up into clear white space above, we see this working particularly well as a focal point in a living room, dedicated study, or home library. In a study, placing this mural wallpaper along an uninterrupted wall behind a desk or low shelving allows the full horizontal span of the skyline to remain clearly visible.

The high contrast between the dark mulberry tones and the white background makes it an ideal feature wall in a room with generous daylight, where the delicate paint-bleed effects and smaller architectural cut-outs stand out in sharp relief. In a library or living area, we would position larger seating so it doesn't obscure the dynamic splatters that give the baseline its artistic energy.

Styling it

The rich, warm gold and deep purple palette lends itself naturally to eclectic and contemporary interiors. We would pair our design with darker wood furniture, such as stained oak or rich walnut, to complement the depth of the mulberry tones while maintaining a grounded, sophisticated feel.

To balance the expressive watercolour texture, keep surrounding upholstery relatively calm with smooth woven fabrics in off-white, warm cream, or deep charcoal. Warm lighting from directional brass or matte black reading lamps will pick out the golden undertones in the evening, highlighting the horizontal rhythm of the town's silhouettes without overwhelming the clean negative space above.

Colour combinations

The design itself is defined by dark mulberry purple, plum, and warm golden ochre, contrasted against a crisp, clean white background.

When decorating the surrounding space, we suggest pulling the warm white from the top of the wallpaper across adjacent painted walls and woodwork to maintain an airy, open feel. For trim, cabinetry, or accent furniture, deeper tones like aubergine, rich plum, or charcoal create a strong tonal dialogue with the cityscape. Muted mustard or warm brass accents also work well to draw out the golden splatters scattered through the lower motif.
