Photo Gallery: Yellow Rooms

Modern Neoclassic Living Room Design
Bold yellow paint adds punch to an otherwise traditional living room.
The desire to reinterpret periods long past continues with a nod to neoclassical. In this new ode to a Grecian urn—as well as busts, vases and goblets—Palladian principles of scale and symmetry mix with fun colours, while decorative laurels, pearls and rosettes add authenticity. Black chairs and lampshades offer striking contrast to the yellow wall.
