Yellow, the Color Every Design Editor Warns You About

Designer Angie Hranowsky has taken on one of the most divisive colors on the paint wheel. Yellow is a shade that reads as sunny in a swatch and wrong on a wall more often than any other, and Hranowsky has built a reputation for getting it right. Her approach treats the color as a technical problem as much as a stylistic one, the kind of choice that separates a room that glows from one that simply looks yellow. It is a small detail, a paint chip and an expert's eye, but it is the sort of decision that determines whether a house feels considered from the moment you walk in.
