Blue and yellow accents build a cheerful and inviting presence in a home decor scheme, making bright contrast and colourful explosions that will lift the most neutral of backgrounds. This is particularly prevalent in decor schemes with a light background, daylight filled and lighthearted in nature. However the blue and yellow theme works equally well as a muted palette at the darker end of the spectrum too. To demonstrate each side of the scale, we’ve found two of our favourite examples of the blue and yellow interior trend: Will you be drawn to the magnetic light personality of bright interior number one, or will it be seductively shaded interior number two?

Our first blue and yellow apartment interior is located in Saint-Petersburg, Russia. A background paint of palest grey sets a light yet calming atmosphere, which balances out the intensity of the brighter coloured elements in the room. A primary yellow cushion shines against a duck egg and dove lounge chair at one end of the furniture arrangement. Blue patterned cushions colour a grey modern sofa , and the window seat is an amalgamation of prussian blue and sunflower pieces.

A red planter creates even more contrast next to the blue and yellow window seat design, and a solid yellow window shade.

Visualizer:Design At Sketch

Almost completely covered in black, a few minor elements shine in chrome and wood in this kitchen interior. We love how the textures do the talking, especially through the matte table under black wood-panelled walls. But having an open approach like this means that every one of your accessories on display—including knives, wine glasses, mugs, cutting boards, teapots, cookie jars, etc.—need to be on point.

2. Add Wooden Elements

Visualizer:Bogdan Tovstyy

Visualizer:Miguel A. Ramos

This compact kitchen space follows the simple rule: white walls paired with black cabinetry and an island. Even in this nook, the space is able to make a style statement while providing optimal functionality. The window here gives a contrasting element of light to the otherwise dark modern kitchen.

34. Layer Lighting in the All Black Kitchen

We see shades of gray and black coming together to bring this modern dark kitchen to life. What we especially love is the multiple types of lighting, all layered together to bring visual interest to the space.
