It's certainly not every day that a photograph from 1971 offers a blueprint for design in the contemporary world, but not every space belongs to Audrey Hepburn. The actress has a reputation as a timeless style icon, and a look inside her Swiss home (named La Plaisible) only emphasizes this further.
Despite originating in 1971, the photograph perfectly demonstrates how to style one of 2025's most daring color trends. The majority of the living room exhibits a white color scheme, with one key exception: bright yellow sofas. These pieces bring an instant energy to the otherwise neutral room, but because they have room to breathe, they don't feel overwhelming. The vibrant yellow makes a statement, yet feels curated and effortlessly cool – something we likely all want from our living spaces.
