Our Favourite Yellow Paint Colours for a Home Office

Interested in transforming your home office with a lick of yellow paint? Whether you're thinking about an all-yellow interior or simply want to create an eye-catching accent wall, we've got plenty of premium wall paint shades for you to consider. 

If your home office needs a quick refresh, there are few better colours to use than Parmesan F302. This is a fairly subtle yellow shade, with its creamy pigment making it a fine choice for anyone wary of experimenting with too daring a colour. 

Ideal for smaller spaces that won't accommodate a more dramatic makeover, this subtle shade will brighten your interiors, leaving you with a home office that inspires. 

If you think your space is lacking a little sunshine, experiment with the occasional pop of something bolder. Alternatively, consider pinks, purples and jewel tones when layering in accent colours. 

Because it's a fairly muted colour, you're not restricted when it comes to office furniture choices. This shade will work well with a vintage desk and upholstered chair, as well as bulky filing cabinets and archive shelves. 

Here's another light and airy yellow that will transform any spare room into a home office to die for. Although it's fairly subtle, Lemonade H300 isn't lacking in yellow character.

Perfect used alongside other yellows for a tonal effect, this paint colour also works well with classic white and greys. You can keep things simple with modular furniture, or add personality to your space with solid wood pieces.

If you want to keep things more traditional, stick to stripped-back furnishings like Venetian blinds and open shelving. Alternatively, play around with black and white pieces to create a stark monochrome arrangement that will shine against a yellow-infused backdrop.

If you're after something more luxurious, go with a paint colour like Joy H303. This velvet yellow is fairly soft, but it still packs plenty of punch when it comes to pigment. 

A great choice for anyone who loves a pastel palette, this gorgeous yellow works well alongside neutrals and off-white shades. Use this shade to paint your office walls, then turn to an off-white hue to coat your ceiling. 

When it comes to furnishing your yellow-inspired office, you've no shortage of options. All-white furniture sets will work particularly well alongside this yellow wall colour, although grey and dark wood pieces will also make a perfect pairing. 

If you think your home office is crying out for a final kick of colour, consider using a bolder shade for an accent wall. You can also incorporate more daring colour pops with decorative pieces and artwork. 

Do you want a home office that you can truly make your own? To get the ball rolling, you'll need a standout wall colour. A light creamy yellow like Papyrus Y392 is the perfect choice, with its hints of beige and pink providing you with endless styling options. 

Take inspiration from the elegant undertones when incorporating secondary shades and accent colours. Light purples and jewel tones make a fine accompaniment to this yellow, although you can also enhance your home office aesthetic with material choices. 

When choosing office furniture, consider dark wood and brass metalwork. If you want a more contemporary aesthetic, this yellow paint colour will also make a great match with powder-coated metal and modular storage.

If you're a fan of all-white interiors and only want to dip your toe into the world of yellow, consider using a colour like Gardenia F309. This light hue combines white with a hint of yellow, making it a low-key option for those not ready for a bolder palette. 

Ideal for smaller rooms that receive relatively little light, this fresh and vibrant paint colour will leave your space feeling bright and open. You can keep things simple with minimalist furniture to make the most of your floor plan or go all out with eclectic colour accents and decorative pieces. 

This subtle colour works well with grey and white furniture but also pairs perfectly with natural materials and hardwoods. If you want to make a statement, think about furnishing your space with a dark oak desk and a vintage shelving unit to store your everyday essentials.
