Wallpaper - Map of Stockholm

Our Map of Stockholm wallpaper presents the Swedish capital through an intricate cartographic composition, pairing a deep navy blue background with soft grey waterways and crisp white street networks. Created by Tish11, the design carries a graphic, screenprint-inspired character that balances expansive archipelago waterways with dense city street grids. What we particularly appreciate is how the detailed road layouts draw the eye inward while the broader organic shapes of the surrounding islands keep the overall piece feeling balanced on a larger wall. Our wallpapers are made-to-measure to your specific wall dimensions and printed on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure.

In the room

We see this design working especially well in spaces dedicated to focus and thought, such as a home office, study, or living room. Because the street network is exceptionally fine, giving this mural wallpaper a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall allows the full geographic span from city centre to outer waterways to unfold without visual breaks. In a study or home office, placing it behind a desk keeps the wall visually engaging without feeling chaotic, as the monochromatic navy palette anchors the room. In a living room setting, it makes a compelling feature wall behind a lower-profile sofa, where the upper waterway contours remain fully visible.

Styling it

To complement the graphic nature of our wall murals, we suggest pairing this design with clean-lined, contemporary furniture that lets the cartography remain the primary focal point. Warm wood tones, such as mid-tone oak or walnut, create a natural counterpoint to the cool navy and grey tones of the map, preventing the room from feeling stark. We would keep decorative objects simple and architectural, leaning into minimalist framing and subtle metallic touches like brushed steel or matte black hardware to echo the precision of the line work.

Colour combinations

The palette is built around deep navy blue, cool pale grey, and crisp white. When considering adjacent walls and trim, off-whites or soft greys that match the waterway tones create a cohesive flow across the space. If you prefer deeper surroundings, bringing a matching dark navy onto adjacent woodwork or shelving wraps the room in a tailored, grounded atmosphere.
