Wallpaper - Kuala Lumpur Skyline Purple & Gold

Designed by Michael Tompsett, this architectural skyline wallpaper captures the recognizable silhouette of Kuala Lumpur, including the Petronas Twin Towers and KL Tower. The design balances a graphic urban profile against an expressive, watercolor-style wash across the lower portion of the skyline, blending dark mulberry purple, rich violet tones, and warm golden ochre against an open white backdrop. Splatters and fluid paint textures give the city silhouette an artistic, contemporary character that makes an immediate visual impact. Like all our wall murals, it is made-to-measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

Because the skyline motif runs horizontally across the lower and middle zones while leaving the upper section light and open, we see this working particularly well on a main feature wall. In a living room, placing it behind a low-profile sofa lets the architectural spires rise clearly into view without feeling cluttered. It also brings a bold, creative backdrop to a home office, where the contrast between crisp architectural landmarks and fluid watercolor splatters provides visual energy across an uninterrupted wall area.

Styling it

To let the artwork take center stage, we suggest pairing this mural wallpaper with streamlined, contemporary furniture. Low-slung silhouettes in dark or neutral finishes keep sightlines clear to the silhouette. Warm brass or aged gold metal accents in lighting or hardware tie naturally into the golden tones within the watercolor base, while clean-lined upholstery in charcoal or off-white keeps the surrounding space grounded.

Color combinations

The design is defined by deep purple, mulberry, and golden ochre set against clean white. Around the wallpaper, we would combine crisp white or soft warm gray on adjoining walls to preserve the open, airy feeling of the upper background. If you prefer deeper contrast, deep charcoal, plum, or muted gold decorative accents draw out the richer pigments in the watercolor wash.
