Decorating With Yellow: It's Not Just For Traditional Style

Written by Jaymi Naciri Posted On Sunday, 15 May 2016 08:30

It's the sunniest color of the rainbow and the one that's equated with happiness. But decorating with yellow can be a bit of a challenge, especially if your decorating style is on the modern side, right? Not anymore.

"Long a favorite color for traditional design, yellow kicks up high spirits in any style's decorating," said Traditional Home.

Indeed, when done right, the color has a way of infusing chic style into almost any space…and bringing a little bit of joy along with it.

Bet you hadn't thought about painting your wood floor yellow. Look how it brings depth and interest to the room.

"Impossible to resist! A bright yellow floor bursts with charisma, surely lifting the spirits of anyone who enters," said HOME DESIGNING. "Abundant light floods the white furniture and further fuels the sunny theme."

You may not have thought about painting your front door yellow... but maybe you should.

"Bring a burst of eternal sunshine to your home's entryway with an invigorating yellow front door," said Houzz. "Few things call out a greeting to visitors and passersby quite like a vibrant yellow front door. An association with happiness, high energy and warmth can make yellow a great choice for the entry to your home."

Don't forget to paint the inside, too, so you get to enjoy it every day!
