Welcome to this week’s blog which comes courtesy of Nina Bertok at Futon Company and the team at elledecoration.co.uk, bestowing the benefits of decorating and accessorising with the colour yellow.
Colour, according to colour-therapists, can affect our emotions, mood, and possibly even our health. So when it comes to decorating and accessorising your home, the shades you choose have the power to affect how you feel.
“Few colours are as good at projecting luminosity and sunny warmth. Describing it as “the workhorse of the colour world” yellow projects optimism and confidence. Its welcoming nature makes it ideal for entrance halls, and it is fresh with white; bold with greys, blacks and blues; and opulent with shades of purple. The vast array of yellow hues available mean it is possible to create a spectrum of different moods with just this colour. Muted, golden shades can feel timelessly elegant, while splashes of yellow signal sharp modernity.”

– Futon Company
In 1980 Futon Company first introduced the futon to Europe and it was an immediate and amazing runaway success. By 1995 they’d become the world’s largest producer of futons and now have 21 retail stores throughout the UK, including at The Pantiles.
Nowadays, Futon Company is so much more than futons. They sell everything for your sitting room, bedroom and hall including a wide range of beds, sofa-beds, storage furniture, lighting, textiles and other items designed for a comfortable, space saving, modern lifestyle. Almost all of which incidentally, are designed by themselves, exclusive to them and available at very short notice.
