This collection of three home tours feature fresh white and yellow interior design ideas that are sure to inspire you to put together your own little piece of sunshine. Each room inside these energised apartments are glowing with a different take on the white and yellow decor theme, from colour block kitchens and dining areas, to bright bedrooms and yellow reading nooks. There are a trio of white and yellow bathrooms to choose from, plus yellow furniture designs, and a bespoke white and yellow studio space. We’ve thrown in a bright bunch of yellow decorating tips along the way too, to help you nail the trend.
Our first white and yellow interior is a the result of 1920s apartment transformation. The original layout was opened up to provide an optimised living space for a young couple in Stockholm. The remodel focussed around three functional walls, the first one being this 7 metre long kitchen wall that is broken into clusters of separate components, each in their own articulated frame.

A column with integrated oven separates the kitchen prep countertop niche from a cosy yellow reading nook. Recessed shelves hold reading material close by plump yellow cushions. A wooden small side table is on hand to hold a coffee mug, and a yellow floor lamp provides focussed reading light. See more floor reading lamps here.

Everything inside the nook is completely yellow, from the retaining cube, seat cover and scatter cushions, to the shelves and a soft throw. The solidity of the combined yellow pieces gives the volume impact within surrounding white elements.

The one wall kitchen with island has a hidden cooker hood to keep the look streamlined – allowing the prep area to remain an uninterrupted cuboid of yellow. The kitchen island does not feature a hob or sink because it is a moveable volume, enabled by castors at its base.

Our last tour takes place in a remodelled minimalist space, which features metal, concrete, and wood textures. The space was opened up and glass walls were installed, so that the apartment is perceived as one whole undivided living area, where zones have no solid boundaries. A yellow modern sofa boldly marks this area as the lounge. Grey scatter cushions tie in with concrete surroundings.
