Wallpaper - Anchorage Alaska Skyline Blue & Bronze

Created by Michael Tompsett, this wallpaper captures the Anchorage skyline through an expressive watercolour style against an open white background. Deep indigo, navy, and teal tones blend with warm bronze, amber, and soft purple across the architectural silhouettes, accented by delicate paint splatters along the lower edge. The horizontal composition balances bold, saturated colour with plenty of crisp white space above. Made to measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface texture, our wallpapers are easy to hang and bring an artistic perspective to any room.

In the room

We see this design working particularly well on a main feature wall in a living room or a dedicated home office. Because the skyline anchors the lower half of the composition while the upper portion remains clear and airy, the mural keeps the room feeling light while still providing a strong focal point. In a living room, placing this design behind a low-profile sofa allows the silhouette to rise naturally above the seating line. For a home office or study, positioning it across from your desk creates an engaging visual backdrop that adds character without overwhelming the workspace.

Styling it

To let the dynamic watercolour artwork take centre stage, we would pair this design with clean-lined contemporary furniture in neutral shades. Low-backed seating in off-white, light grey, or muted charcoal works nicely to avoid interrupting the architectural details of the skyline. Accents in warm bronze, brass, or brushed metal echo the rich amber tones in the print and tie the room together naturally. Keeping surrounding furnishings relatively simple allows the expressive movement of the mural wallpapers to stand out as the primary decorative feature.

Colour combinations

The motif blends deep indigo, inky navy, and teal with vibrant splashes of bronze, ochre, and dusky violet against a plain white backdrop. On adjacent walls, a clean warm white or very pale cool grey provides a seamless transition that complements the upper half of the design. For larger furniture and accessories, you can draw directly from the richer tones within the skyline, such as navy blue upholstery, deep petrol accents, or warm bronze cushions and metalwork.
