Wallpaper - Mysuru Skyline India

Created by Michael Tompsett, this architectural mural wallpaper captures the distinctive skyline of Mysuru, India, in an expressive watercolour silhouette. The design balances rich, dark mulberry purple tones with warm ochre and gold accents, emerging from dynamic splatters and bleeds against a clean, off-white background. The detailed outlines of palaces, domes, and spires create an engaging horizontal rhythm that anchors a room without overwhelming it. Printed made-to-measure on our PVC-free paper with a subtle surface structure, it is straightforward to hang and brings an artistic, worldly focal point to any interior.

In the room

Because this design is anchored along the lower and middle horizontal planes, it works exceptionally well on a main feature wall in a living room or a dedicated study. We particularly like how the architectural silhouette gives visual structure to a wall behind a low-profile sofa, a credenza, or a desk, allowing the detailed spires to rise naturally into the open space above. In larger, open-plan spaces, giving the mural a wider, uninterrupted wall ensures that the entire panoramic skyline and its energetic paint splatters can be appreciated from a distance.

Styling it

To let the dynamic artwork take centre stage, we suggest styling the surrounding space with furniture that features clean, modern lines. Low-slung seating or minimalist shelving ensures the horizontal flow of the skyline remains visible and impactful.

For surrounding textures, matte finishes and natural woven upholstery help ground the rich watercolour style. Introducing subtle metallic accents, like brushed brass lighting or understated bronze frames, highlights the warm ochre tones in the skyline without competing with the bold purple hues.

Colour combinations

The motif itself combines deep mulberry purple and plum tones with warm golden ochre, layered over a crisp, neutral white backdrop. For adjacent walls and woodwork, soft warm off-whites or pale stone shades maintain an airy contrast that mirrors the negative space in the wallpaper. If you want a moodier, more cohesive look, echoing the deeper purple or rich plum tones through accent cushions, a throw, or painted cabinetry creates a grounded, sophisticated setting.
