Pantone has announced two colors for 2021: Illuminating and Ultimate Grey, and they can be used in a bold combo with each other and they are sure to make your space look enlivened and bright. Such a color palette for a bedroom isn’t a frequent thing, as most of us prefer neutrals, muted shades or even moody colors but if you go for them, they will make your space unusual and unique.
Grey and yellow can be looked at in different ways, for example, you may go for bright shades to create a vivacious space, play with contrasts using graphite grey and lemon yellow, or go for softer and tender shades incorporating dove grey and light yellows into your decor. Refresh the space with neutrals, or add more bright colors of your choice and voila – a unique bedroom is done! Such a color scheme will fit many styles, from farmhouse to minimalist but of course it will look most amazing in industrial, mid-century modern and vintage or retro style.

The walls in your bedroom can be neutral or grey of your choice – I must say that yellow is not often used for walls as it’s very intense but if you are risky, go for bold wall color blocking. Bring grey furniture, you may actually go for black or even yellow pieces or prefer stained items, too. Keep the color scheme up with yellow decor and accessories you like – they are easy to add and can be easily changed, too.
