Sunshine Yellow Interiors
Make a statement with bright sunshine yellow furniture or painted pieces such as window frames or interior doors. Sunshine yellow works particularly well when paired against fresh white walls and light wooden floors or furnishings – creating a bright airy homely atmosphere with a zing a colour!
Mustard Yellow Interiors
Mustard or golden yellows give a room a cosy yet sophisticated feel. Team it with darker shades such as teal, navy or plum to create a more opulent setting, or mix it with blush pinks and natural wood to create a modern Scandi look. Mustard yellow really is a very modern versatile shade!
Yellow with Monochrome and Grey Colour Schemes
For a modern yet industrial look pair sunshine or mustard yellow tones with a monochrome or grey backdrop. The dark and neutral colour scheme will really make the yellow features pop.
