Wallpaper - Islamabad Pakistan Skyline Purple & Gold

Created by Michael Tompsett, this city skyline wallpaper captures the architectural profile of Islamabad through an expressive watercolour-like technique. Splatters and blooms of rich purple, dark mulberry, and warm gold blend along the base of the skyline, rising into distinct silhouettes of modern towers and historic landmarks against a clean white backdrop. We make all of our wall murals to measure according to your wall dimensions, printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure.

In the room

Because the skyline sits across the lower half of the composition with generous open space above, this design works especially well along a wide living room wall or behind a desk in a home office. Placing low-profile furniture beneath the skyline allows the intricate splatters and architectural silhouettes to remain completely visible. In rooms with high ceilings, the open white upper area gives the space an airy, expansive feel while anchoring the visual focus at eye level.

Styling it

We like pairing this artistic skyline with contemporary furniture that carries clean lines and unpainted brass or warm metallic accents, which echo the gold tones in the watercolour motif. Keeping surrounding soft furnishings in neutral tones ensures the expressive purple and mulberry splatters remain the centrepiece of the room.

Colour combinations

The design centres on deep purple, dark mulberry, and ochre gold set against a crisp white ground. When decorating around it, we recommend drawing out the richer tones with deep plum upholstery or warm amber accessories, while using muted off-white or soft cream on adjacent walls to keep the room cohesive and bright.
