Wallpaper - Uppsala Skyline Blue & Bronze

Designed by Michael Tompsett, our Uppsala Skyline Blue & Bronze wallpaper brings an expressive architectural silhouette to life through rich watercolour-like textures and energetic paint splatters. The design captures the recognisable landmarks of Uppsala, anchored by the towering spires of its historic cathedral, set against a clean white backdrop. Deep indigo blues, teal, warm bronze, and burnt amber tones bleed and blend together across the city's profile, giving this skyline a dramatic artistic character. Like all our wall murals, this design is made-to-measure to fit your exact wall dimensions and is completely PVC-free.

In the room

In a living room or creative home studio, we see this design working especially well as a focal accent wall. Because the architectural skyline forms a strong horizontal band with open space above, it creates visual interest without feeling overcrowded. We would give this wallpaper a wide, relatively uninterrupted wall area, such as behind a low-profile sofa or along a main feature wall, allowing the full breadth of the city silhouette and its delicate paint droplets to be appreciated.

Styling it

Because the artwork has such a bold, expressive presence, we prefer balancing it with relatively calm, clean-lined furnishings. Low-profile contemporary furniture keeps the lower edge of the skyline visible, while accents in warm bronze, copper, or aged brass naturally echo the golden-amber highlights within the watercolour wash. Keeping surrounding surfaces minimal allows the rich visual texture of the wallpaper to remain the centre of attention.

Colour combinations

The wallpaper features a vivid palette of deep navy, teal, warm bronze, ochre, and soft plum, all resting on a crisp white ground. When choosing colours for surrounding walls and woodwork, a clean off-white or soft warm grey creates a fresh contrast that mirrors the negative space in the design. For a moodier, enveloping scheme, picking out the deep midnight blue or a muted bronze tone for adjacent walls or textiles creates an immediate sense of cohesion.
