“Our first house had a yellow kitchen… we promptly painted it white,” my friend shared with me the other day. And she’s certainly not alone. It’s true, the thought of my yellow kitchen ideas would be enough to make you cringe. Bright, bold, and slightly too kitsch, they’re often a blemish of bygone times; the first thing to go. But with soft shades of butter yellow making more than a subtle comeback over the last few years, could yellow kitchens be due for their own?
And it’s not just the pastel shades we saw in the ‘50s, or the mustards that made their mark in the swirls of the ‘60s and ‘70s. Interior designers are increasingly making a case for something a little bit bolder. After all, kitchens aren’t spaces we hide away anymore — they're the center of the action, so why wouldn’t you want a kitchen color to match the vibe?
