For those who want to spruce up their New York City and Chicago apartments with just a hint of color, but you’re not sure which color to choose from, we suggest picking yellow. Yes, it’s a bit out there and a lot of color in your face, but we find that yellow is highly underrated as a color. Just check out these seven perfect, yellow additions, and you’ll see why.
7 Yellow Pieces to Add to Your Apartment
1. Skyline Furniture Made to Order Modern Chair in Twill Bright Yellow
Buy from: Overstock.com
Price: $371
A simple and classic chair is always a great addition to any apartment. You really can’t go wrong! We like this one, as it both looks great and it looks comfy.
2. Andy Warhol Poster Banana Velvet Underground
Buy from: Etsy
Price: $6
You just need this. That’s that.
3. & Tradition Flowerpot Pendant VP1 Yellow
Buy from: Houseology
Price: $230
We love this pendant lamp. It is an old classic but by changing the color from the standard color choices (white, black, gray, etc.) and picking a yellow version makes this a different and bolder choice.
4. Surya Cotton Velvet Bright Yellow Throw Pillow
Buy from: Zincdoor
Price: $34
One of the best and safest purchases for the apartment might be pillows. A simple pillow, in either a neutral color or in a vibrant display. We pick this yellow pillow. It is low in price, and you can put it in any room! Well, maybe not the bathroom.
5. Cyan Design Small Mellow Yellow Vase Mellow Yellow 12.5 Inch Tall
Buy from: Build.com
Price: $103
Small items have a tendency to stick out as well if they’re a particular color or a different design. While this is a rather average looking vase, the colors make it more vibrant, and therefore you have another item in your house that draws the attention of your visitors.
6. New Yellow Over-Dyed Moroccan Hand-Knotted Rug
Buy from: Chairish
Price: $1,975
A great rug can go a long way when it comes to spruce up your apartment. Just like a couch or any other big statement piece, a vibrant looking rug is one of the things people tend to notice when they walk into an apartment.
7. Grace Sofa Reviews
Buy from: All Modern
Price: $1,485
Most people tend to go for a neutral color when it comes to their couch. We get it. It’s easier to clean off any stains or mess, and if there’s a stain that you can’t get out, it’s less likely anyone notice. Another reason for having a big statement piece like the couch be a natural color is that you can then play around with interesting and different smaller items for your place. But we say go for the big, colorful statement piece. Like this couch.
