"Yellow stands out as the most visible colour in daylight, making it an ideal paint choice for adding vibrancy to any room. Its light-reflecting properties are particularly advantageous in small or dimly lit spaces, where it can enhance brightness and create a sense of spaciousness. Historically, yellow has been used to uplift spirits, a practice dating back to London in 1917. Additionally, yellow is known to stimulate appetite, making it a perfect selection for kitchens where a lively, engaging environment is desired."

He also offers colour pairings for Dulux’s Colour of the Year, in addition to examples of how to incorporate the colour pairings within the kitchen and bedroom.

Grey

This hue adds a bold yet inviting touch, and it brings a sense of class and elegance. For example, yellow cabinetry combined with grey granite countertops in the kitchen can create a striking and sophisticated look.

Naturals

Incorporating elements like timber, jute, and linen can beautifully complement yellow. Consider pairing yellow cabinetry with timber worktops and adding jute placemats and linen napkins as softer furnishings. These natural materials help to temper the vibrancy of yellow and create a balanced, uplifting kitchen environment.

White

For a contemporary feel, white is an excellent choice to neutralize the intensity of yellow while preserving its brightness. A white tiled backsplash can provide a crisp contrast to yellow features, or yellow and white bedding can lend a positive yet almost regal ambiance to a space.
