Decorating by Color: Yellow

The color of sunshine and daisies, yellow brightens up dark rooms and breathes warmth into cold spaces.


Bold Color
For a bold, graphic feel, add black and white furniture with strong silhouettes to a room already vivid with color.

Lemon-Yellow Dining Room
Lemony yellow walls seem to glow within the context of the home decorator original wood beams and the burnished warmth of a c. 1800 church pew, transformed into a dining table by a local craftsman.

Yellow Bathtub
A simple color scheme of white, yellow, and black makes a big impact in a cottage bathroom.

Soft Yellow Room
Pale yellow walls set a soothing tone in this guest bedroom. The hooks on a vintage French coatrack that once hung in a train now display paintings and the bed is topped with a sheer bedcover with a pin-tucked hem.
