The first way is by applying several types of yellow simultaneously. The combination of these different colour tones will create a dynamic ambience in the room. With yellow as the main colour theme, you can apply a darker shade of yellow to a wide area like the walls, then apply a lighter shade of yellow to the decorations. This arrangement of colours can also be done vice versa, in accordance to your preference.

Yellow Sofa

If you don’t want the room to be entirely in yellow, pick only one part of it, for example yellow for the sofa that becomes the main furniture piece. Yellow sofa will be the focal point, especially if accompanied by other softer colours at the other parts of the room. Besides sofa, other furniture pieces can also be painted yellow, such as the bed’s headboard, the table, or the dining chair.

A Touch of Artwork

Who says that the application of colour is limited to wall paint? Applying colour can also be carried out through paintings or artworks in the room. For example, like this room that looks livelier through the addition of a painting in yellow theme. Don’t forget to pick a size of an artwork that is suitable with the size of the wall in the room.

An interplay with texture can also be opted for when you want to add a touch of yellow in the room. The natural texture and colour of exposed brick will go well with the bright yellow colour. The natural colour can also serve as a balance so that the touch of yellow won’t seem too flashy.
