Long before butter yellow was dominating our interiors and mood boards, another timeless tastemaker was using the color to brighten her kitchen: Candice Bergen. A 1971 photoshoot captured the iconic model and actress's space resplendent with bright yellow walls, woven textures, and wooden accents.
Looking back at Candice's California home reveals that decorating with yellow is more than a fad – it's always been a hallmark of the chicest people's homes. Her yellow kitchen taps into the country kitchen style, with warm farmhouse accents that feel like a dose of sunshine. Candice sits at a wooden table lined with wicker baskets and glossy pottery. A cream-and-red rug beneath her feet adds extra pattern. One of the most interesting elements is a painting of shelves filled with antique crockery that gives the illusion of a built-in feature. All these details are pulled together with the brilliant yellow tone of her walls.
