Yellow living room décor is an instantly uplifting and joyful way to welcome spring into your home. Yellow is said to bring positive energy to spaces and is a perfect way to introduce warmth and contrast to neutral colors and modern furnishings. You’ll often see yellow contrasted with grey for exactly this reason.
Opting for yellow décor works wonderfully in spaces with ample natural light by appearing brighter in the middle of the day and offering a warm glow into the afternoon. Regardless of the level of light in your space, there is a shade of yellow for any room –from soft lemon cream to deep and dramatic ochres. The benefit of this spectrum is that you can incorporate layers of décor, such as rugs, pillows, and throws in different shades of yellow, without it becoming overwhelming.
For creative ways to add yellow décor in your living room and usher in spring, read on!
