The color yellow conveys energy, optimism, and warmth. In this article, we explore three trending shades of yellow and the color palettes they ensue.

Yellow is one of those colors that can instantly liven up any room. Even if you’re not the biggest fan of it, there’s no denying that yellow grabs attention like few other colors can. One thing to keep in mind about yellow is that it can be incredibly polarizing; while some people might find it to be cheerful and uplifting, others might find it aggressive and visually strenuous. 

“The radiant color of yellow promotes happiness and optimism in the observer. Yellow is said to promote happiness more than any of the other major colors. Believed to have an influence on the left side of the human brain, yellow helps foster strong analytical thinking.” – David Kelly via Medium

Yellow in the Home

Bedroom

The color yellow tends to bode well in the realm of interior design. According to HGTV, yellow can serve to activate memory, stimulate senses, and promotes communication and creativity. This being said, overuse of it can lead to visual fatigue. If you plan to use yellow in a big way within your home, opt for a spectrum of shade of yellow, which will increase the versatility of the color.
