Yellow is a good way to cheer up and create a comfortable, relaxing atmosphere in the house. Different manifestations of color define the character of the house and are suitable for decorating any room. Below are photo examples of the use of yellow on the walls in rooms for various functional purposes.

The atmosphere in our home largely depends on the color of its walls. Even psychologists have recognized the fact of the influence of color on a person's perception of the surrounding space. That is why it is so important to make the right choice.

In this article, we'll take a look at one of the most positive, warm colors on the spectrum, yellow. How will he behave in the bedroom or hall?

Are there any features of finishing with yellow wallpaper for the walls of the kitchen or corridor? We will try to answer all these questions.

Yellow wallpaper in rooms for different purposes. Color Features

Yellow color has many positive qualities, but at the same time, its use in interior design has its own characteristics. We will talk about them in this article.

The meaning of yellow in the interior

Yellow is one of the primary colors of the spectrum, and in addition, it is the brightest of them. It is warm, and always evokes a feeling of warmth and the most positive associations. Wallpaper in yellow tones will always “save” the most shaded room and fill it with light. According to psychologists, this color contributes to the active work of the brain, cheerfulness and good mood.

It is also worth noting the features of the gradation of shades of yellow. This includes shades from bright - almost orange, golden, warm, to cool - completely pale. And in what particular shade to buy wallpaper - depends on the specific room and on the characteristics of your perception.

Decoration of the hall and bedroom

It is worth starting with the fact that the yellow color is quite active, and, as mentioned above, has a stimulating effect on our brain. Therefore, if you are relaxing in the hall after work, then the color of the wallpaper should be as pale as possible. Or you can choose a shade that is closest to beige, as in the photo. In this case, the rest will be more complete.

But the yellow wallpaper in the bedroom can be brighter - a little cheerfulness and good mood in the morning will not hurt at all. However, we don’t go to extremes, it’s not worth making the walls completely “chicken”. In addition, it makes sense to “mute” the wallpaper due to light textiles, as well as the color of the floor or ceiling. And do not forget the rule regarding the color of furniture and accessories.

Finishing the kitchen and corridor

They say that yellow promotes a good appetite - and in the kitchen, such an effect is only at hand. In addition, you get the opportunity to fill a small room with light and visually enlarge it. The yellow wallpaper for the walls, the photo of which you see, has a muted shade, close to beige. However, for the kitchen, you can use almost any tone. Unless the brightest ones should be diluted with inserts, for example, white.

In the corridors and hallways we are a scanty amount of time. Therefore, there is no need to particularly think about how this or that color can be active or oppressive. This means that in the design of the corridor, you can afford some liberties regarding the choice of color.

Actually, this was done by the authors of the corridor design from the photo below: the color of the walls is very bright, it is difficult to imagine such a thing in living rooms. The only thing to remember is that such active shades can distort the colors of clothes in your reflection in the mirror.

Corridor decoration

Wall decoration and color combination

As you have noticed, looking at the photo of the first part of the article, there is almost no ornament on the yellow wallpaper. And if you look at the catalog in the store, then there will not be a wide variety of drawings either. And the reason for this is not the price. The fact is that the color is bright in itself, and the pattern can simply become superfluous. However, rarely does not mean “never”.

Wallpaper ornament options

What does not happen on yellow wallpaper for walls is huge gaudy flowers and monograms. What you see in the photo below can be considered the limit of the size and intensity of the color of the ornament. As a rule, this is not a large drawing, up to 10 cm in diameter, made with thin lines or no color at all, due to the texture. Line colors are white or shades of grey. If we talk about the types of ornament - most often these are primitive floral ones - for example, roses or tulips, as well as floral and geometric patterns.

Striped decoration in the bedroom

A good option is single large drawings. They are located only on one of the walls, and the rest are finished with plain wallpaper. The color of such a pattern can be white, gray or black. True, in the shops of finishing materials there is no particular variety of such wallpapers, and most likely they will have to be made to order.

Combinations of wall finishes

As always, the most popular color used "in company" with others is white, boiled or milky. In this case, it is designed to muffle, cool the brightness of yellow, dilute it. It can be used in a 50/50 combination, and in a minimal amount. If you take the photo below, then the rejection of white when using yellow of such brightness could make the interior uncomfortable for perception.

Here is another option for using white wallpaper in the interior. Here the combination is triple: a border with stripes along the bottom of the walls, and a panel with a floral pattern a little higher. The design is rather controversial due to the brightness of the main shade. It is best to use it in the hall or in a spacious hallway.

A good result can be obtained by combining shades of green and yellow. Green will slightly muffle and cool the yellow. This option is equally well suited for the bedroom, and for the hall or living room. Tones should be chosen as the lightest, as the excessive intensity of the finish will negate all the benefits of this combination.

Green trim inserts

The brightness of yellow shades allows them to choose even black and dark gray in a pair, which is sometimes difficult to do with other colors of the spectrum. However, you should not finish too small rooms in this way, walls with gray-yellow wallpaper will “crush”. Please note: the room in the photo does not look too dark or gloomy at all.

It is believed that yellow is a positive, uplifting mood, a charge of vivacity. Such color possibilities are usually played up in the interior. But you can go too far with cheerfulness if it is too intrusive. Therefore, it is worth considering not only the possibilities of yellow, but also its side effects.

Yellow is not "friends" with everyone. If you are an optimistic person by nature, prone to adventures, easy-going, yellow is definitely your color. It will be a logical addition to your little world, which materially embodies your own home.

For people prone to depression, yellow can become the color of oppression. A special rich yellow that overwhelms other colors in the interior.

And psychologists also say that if you go too far with yellow in the interior, this can affect the change in criticality. This means that a person who has been in such a room for a long time will begin to find fault with himself and others. There is such an expression “does not find a place for himself”, it is characteristic of a person getting from a calmer environment into an exciting, active yellow room.

Yellow wallpaper in the interior

The yellow color has a huge gradation of shades, and this circumstance must be used wisely. Yellow, surprisingly, can be cold, can turn into golden hues, or can become a retro mustard color.

Just a yellow wallpaper, without any color combinations - a bold move. Therefore, dilute them at least with paintings on the walls, for example, in thick white frames. Or choose other color combinations.

The best partners of yellow:

1. yellow plus white. This classic, which is appropriate in virtually any interior. White goes well with absolutely all shades of yellow.
2. Yellow plus beige. And this is an option for those who want to create a very warm room. Although this is not so bad, given that beige shades soften the activity of yellow.
3. yellow plus brown. Another classic combination that helps make a room in such colors energetic and dynamic. It also affects the perception of the room, the interior of which in such a range becomes more mature and solid.
4. Yellow plus blue. There is a game of contrasts. By choosing faded shades of these colors, you can create a very soft, gentle, calm atmosphere in the room. A good option for a growing girls room.
5. Yellow plus burgundy. This tandem influences the creation of a luxurious, majestic environment. But the furniture should also be matched - expensive in appearance, with curves and other design tricks.

What color furniture goes with yellow wallpaper

Again, you need to start from a specific shade of wallpaper. For example, wallpapers closer to gold are combined not with the color of the furniture, but with its design.

For yellow walls, white furniture is considered an almost win-win option. Milky color and other shades of white always look very comfortable against the background of yellow walls, while restrained, subtle, interesting. And a little white takes on the brightness of yellow, calms the atmosphere.

Furniture is also suitable for yellow wallpaper:

• noble brown;
• Pale green and all light shades of this color;
• Beige tones;
• Soft and faded blue;
• In not very large quantities of dark chocolate, close to black.

The color of coffee with milk is another partner of yellow wallpapers. This combination looks very stylish. For example, such a sofa against the background of a yellow wall is soft, cozy, tasteful.

Yellow wallpaper: color book

With such a pun, you can approach the topic of gradation of yellow flowers. There is a famous book by Charlotte Gilman "Yellow Wallpaper", which unwittingly gave rise to a surge of interest in yellow wallpaper. And the choice of them is very busy, given the huge selection of yellow.

Gradations of yellow color:

1. Pearl. Delicate color, white with a yellowish tint. For rooms where you need to create an atmosphere of peace and an optimistic view of the future.
2. Pale yellow. It is a pale yellow color with a pink tint. It can be used in a vintage interior, where it will be at ease.
3. Citric. It is a cool yellow with a light green tint. A good option for arranging small rooms.
4. Canary. Bright yellow color, appropriate in the nursery, but not in very large quantities.
5. Straw. Light yellow shades are a good option for a cold small room.
6. Saffron. A brown-yellow color that doesn't have to be overwhelming.
7. Narcissus. A warm yellow spring color that pairs well with other spring primrose shades.
8. Mustard. This is what dry mustard looks like. For an interior in a retro style, in an aristocratic setting, it is very good.

And there is also corn, amber, tobacco, cream, sand ... When choosing a yellow wallpaper, you may encounter the “eyes run wide” effect. Do not forget to evaluate the available data: furniture, textiles, room size, which side this room faces.
