5. Yellow and Green:

Warmer and colder undertones complement each other which is why this home looks classy yet timeless. Due to the wide shade range of both colors, different shades of yellow and green give completely different results.

Do you see how unique this house looks as compared to other houses in the neighborhood at the back? Due to the slanting road, it looks like this house stands on a hill. It must be so fun to live here.

The hints of reds and browns in the roof introduce a sense of regality which is even more emphasized by the vintage gate at the front. White windows stand proudly like accent pieces and intensify the subtle statement this house is making.

7. From Intense to pastel:

Yellow comes in various saturation levels, and if you like yellow, it is possible that you like all shades. If you are indecisive as to which shade to go for, you can use two to three different shades like this house.

Not only will it make your house look unique, but you also will not be bored of seeing only one color. You can choose from pale or pastel yellow, bright yellow, intense mustard, and lime yellow. Why stop at one shade?

8. Cabin in the woods:

If you are a sucker for small and isolated houses, take a look at this tiny bright yellow house in the woods. The grey stones add a natural architectural effect to the house making it look vintage and classic at the same time.

Now we all have our fair share of mixed feelings about cabins in the woods, but if one could smell freshly baked cookies and hot chocolate from this house, tell me who would think twice before stepping in?

9. A Victorian castle:

Step right into the Victorian era with this vintage yellow Victorian-themed house. The industrial-strength brick sidelines ornament the yellow color perfectly, making it look even more spectacular.

However, keep in mind that it is a good idea to stay away from bright colors to ornament your yellow house. Stick with whites and browns and you will be okay.

This house on the hill feels like a home that you might go to during your summer holidays to visit your grandmother in the countryside. It is a lively cottage that reminds you of all things sweet.

I love the seating area on the porch and how it is decorated with plants. Imagine the view that you might have while sitting there and sipping tea in the mornings.

13. Stucco Cream with Tile Roof:

A neutral color scheme is opted for by many house buyers nowadays. However, neutral does not always mean white and beige. To make your house unique yet minimalistic, you can go for a yellower shade of cream to give your house some oomph.

REMEMBER!

DO A PATCH TEST BEFORE PAINTING

Yellow has the tendency to look different in different lighting. Do a patch test on a corner of your home to see if you like the results before going all in.

Happy painting!
