Wallpaper - Split Croatia Skyline Blue & Bronze

Designed by Michael Tompsett, our Split Croatia Skyline Blue & Bronze wallpaper captures the architectural profile of the coastal city through an expressive watercolour-like silhouette. The composition pairs historic bell towers, arches, and modern waterfront buildings with splatters and flowing washes of deep indigo, petrol blue, rich bronze, and warm amber against an open white background. Made to measure on PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, this design brings a vibrant graphic focal point to living areas and workspaces.

In the room

Because the skyline runs horizontally across the lower and middle ground before opening up into clean white space above, we see this working particularly well on a wide, uninterrupted feature wall. In a living room, placing the design behind a low-backed sofa allows the varied rooflines and delicate architectural spires to remain fully visible.

In a home office or study, the contrast between the saturated blue and bronze tones and the crisp backdrop creates a distinct focal point without overwhelming the entire space. The open upper section also gives the design breathing room on walls with standard ceiling heights, keeping the overall atmosphere bright.

Styling it

To complement the rich watercolour textures, we would keep surrounding elements fairly grounded. Mid-century modern or contemporary furniture with clean silhouettes allows the detailed cityscape to take centre stage without competing for visual attention.

Warm wood tones such as walnut or teak echo the amber and bronze pigment washes within the artwork, while subtle bronze or aged brass accents in table lamps or hardware tie the metallic-inspired warmth together. Plain, textured upholstery in off-white or charcoal helps anchor the lower edge of the wall mural.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper is built around a palette of deep navy, teal, inky blue, warm ochre, and burnished bronze, all set against a clean white backdrop.

For adjacent walls and woodwork, a crisp off-white or light stone shade maintains the airy feel of the upper background. If you prefer a richer, more cohesive atmosphere, pulling out the deep indigo or deep teal for painted trim, built-in shelving, or a statement armchair creates an appealing tonal connection with the skyline.
