Why Choose Yellow?
Yellow is cheerful, uplifting and bursting with joy. You simply can’t resist smiling when you walk into a space with a yellow colour scheme. It always adds warmth to a space, like ready-made sunshine. Whether your home is traditional or contemporary, in the city or country, yellow colour schemes will always feel welcome.

How to Create a Yellow Colour Scheme
Choosing colours is half the joy — and half the challenge — of decorating. You could create a tonal scheme, layering several yellows together for a cohesive, gentle feel. This works wonderfully for a nursery or playroom. For something a little bolder that makes yellow the centre of attention, pair your yellow with its complementary white. This will add a little more contrast but still creates a harmonious, put together feel.
With such beautiful yellows to choose from, it can be tricky to narrow them down. That’s why we asked our in-house experts Joa Studholme and Patrick O’Donnell for three of their favourite yellow scheme suggestions.
