Exploring the Palette: Sun-Kissed Yellow

"Yellow adds vitality to other colors, making hot hues seem even more brilliant and bringing cool colors to life. It's therefore a consistent favorite in the home, filling any room with warmth, good cheer, and light. However, a little goes a long way as prolonged expose to bright lemon can provoke too much mental stimulation and create anxiety. In many countries yellow suggests success, prosperity, and power. In Japan, it means grace and nobility, an association that goes back to ancient warriors who wore yellow chrysanthemums into battle as a pledge of courage."
