Wallpaper - Dublin Ireland Skyline Purple & Gold

Our Dublin Skyline Purple & Gold wallpaper brings together the iconic architectural silhouette of the Irish capital with expressive, watercolor-style splashes. Designed by Michael Tompsett, this contemporary city skyline captures landmarks like the Ha'penny Bridge, the Spire, and the Samuel Beckett Bridge in rich shades of dark mulberry purple and warm earthy gold set against a clean white background. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle physical surface structure, this piece adds an artistic focal point to any room.

In the room

In a living room, we see this wall mural working exceptionally well as an accent wall behind a low-profile sofa or media console. The horizontal composition stretches across the width of the room, while the generous white space above the skyline prevents the design from overwhelming the space. Because the artwork anchors its visual weight along the lower and middle sections, it gives a sense of structure without feeling heavy near the ceiling.

For a home office, placing this mural wallpaper behind a desk creates an inspiring backdrop that balances urban character with fine-art expression. The clear white background allows plenty of breathing room around furniture, making it just as effective in compact studies as it is on larger, uninterrupted walls.

Styling it

To complement the rich purple and ochre gold tones of our wallpaper, we suggest pairing it with clean-lined modern furniture that lets the skyline silhouette remain the center of attention. Low-profile seating and open shelving in warm wood tones, such as teak or light oak, echo the earthy golden hues in the watercolor splashes while keeping the overall atmosphere relaxed and grounded.

For accent pieces and decorative hardware, subtle brass or warm metallic finishes harmonize naturally with the gold elements in the motif. Keep surrounding textiles quiet with unpatterned fabrics in neutral creams or soft off-whites to maintain an open, balanced feel throughout the space.

Color combinations

The wallpaper features a dynamic blend of deep mulberry purple, warm earthy gold, ochre, and soft violet washes, all set against a crisp white ground. When selecting colors for surrounding walls, trim, or large furniture, we recommend taking cues from this palette.

A soft warm white or pale parchment on adjoining walls maintains the bright, open background of the design while adding subtle warmth to the room. If you prefer deeper contrast, grounding adjacent surfaces with a deep plum or a muted charcoal pulls out the darkest shadows in the cityscape. For textiles and decorative details, muted mustard, ochre, or warm honey accents highlight the golden watercolor undertones.
