Gray brother
The gray color, which in itself is inexpressive and rather boring, is a wonderful partner for mustard. This combination is the most replicated in apartment design in recent years. The interior in gray-mustard tones turns out to be restrained and laconic and not dreary.

With gray furniture and accessories
But the gray sofa against the background of the mustard wall would be invisible if it were not supported by a gray carpet and a coffee table with a gray marble top. The bright wall echoes the soft pouf and sofa cushions. Together - a harmonious ensemble.

To bring a bit of energy and warmth into your home, we recommend purchasing a sofa in this color. An interesting solution would be to create a contrast where this will be combined with dark decorative details.
In the bedroom, we recommend combining curtains of this color with bedding in light green tones; this will make your interior comfortable and calm.

White friend
Mustard with white is the second most popular combination. White makes mustard lighter and fresher, while mustard brings out the purity and elegance of white.

In the bedroom
Mustard is most often used either to decorate walls or to create large interior accents using, for example, sofas or curtains. The most successful duets are obtained with classic light shades of warm tones. White, chocolate, and beige colors will be an excellent color partner in the bedroom.
In the bedroom, mustard color can be used as curtains, blankets, bedspreads and, of course, wallpaper. It goes great in the bedroom with soft green bed linen. Such a room will set you up for a sound, healthy sleep.
Choosing bedroom furniture is more difficult. It will require darker walls and shades of other objects in the room. Surrounded by lighter tones, mustard will seem out of place, and if the surrounding tones turn out to be cold, it will completely lose all its advantages. In dark bedrooms, mustard-colored details - curtains, paintings, vases - will look good. The room will then immediately seem more lived-in and homely.
Chocolate Guest
A rare example of such a rich mustard interior: walls, ceiling, doors, curtains, even chairs in different shades of ripe mustard seeds. And in the middle is a chocolate sofa, imposing and proud. He clearly belongs here. And the abundance of mustard doesn’t hurt the eyes so much anymore.

In bathroom
Rich shades of mustard will become a bright accent in a traditional white bath. This color scheme will fill the room with comfort, warmth, joyful and cheerful mood. A bright accent on the light background of the walls will be textiles, curtains in the bathtub, and accessories in bright mustard colors.
An interesting option is completely mustard walls. This solution carries a certain charm, especially in combination with white sanitaryware. This shade goes well with sea green accessories. Complete the interior with blue-green towels and toothbrush cups and enjoy the natural African color.
Pink Schemer
If you want to create a bohemian, slightly casual and at the same time stylish interior, combine mustard with pink. Yes, yes, mustard and pink. And so that the walls have pink stains and the chair screams: “I’m for Barbie!” And no, it's not vulgar. Mustard will add noble elegance to any dubious interior.

Specifics of mustard color and its shades
In order for the mustard color to “play correctly”, it is very important to work on the lighting.
When working with this color, lighting plays perhaps one of the most important roles. If the light is bright, mustard will take on a golden-yellow hue; subdued lighting will reveal its elegance and bring out its dark notes.
In a word, if you successfully combine and illuminate the honey color, it will give the interior peace, sophistication and mystery.
As for earlier periods, mustard belongs to the “palette of the rich” and was often used when decorating interiors in the estates of the nobility and bohemians.
Having reached our time, this color has not lost its relevance and continues to be widely used not only in interiors, but also in other areas.
It has a very good effect on a person, creates comfort, calms and generally has a beneficial effect on the nervous system.
It is the mustard color that personifies abundance and wealth, sophistication and nobility, which has a subconscious influence on a person and his mood.
Blue Helper
Is it possible to say, looking at this interior, that cold and warm shades are not on the way? They go great together when it comes to mustard and blue. Warm walls warm the room, the heavenly coolness of the furniture cools it down. All in all, a serene summer day.

In the kitchen
In the kitchen, color will create a comfortable homely atmosphere. In addition, it improves appetite, as it is a warm shade. If the kitchen is small, then there should not be a lot of mustard in it, so as not to darken the room. In a bright kitchen, it is quite enough to introduce elements of this shade - a kitchen apron and blinds, which, in combination with a light wooden floor and worktop, will make a magnificent ensemble. If the kitchen faces south and the lighting allows, you can introduce an additional element into the interior - a mustard-colored wall. In this case, you will have to try to choose the color of a harmonious companion.
If, in addition to mustard, you want to introduce another tone into the interior: for example, use mustard facades and yellow skins, then in order not to overload the room with colors, it needs to be diluted with a white background. Well, let us remind you once again that bright colors are more often used in the interior of large kitchens. A kitchen set in a wenge shade will look good in a mustard kitchen, which can be complemented with beige and olive colors.
The flight of designer imagination is limitless
Vintage style is returning extremely cautiously, as if it is afraid that it will be driven away. Just recently, girls emptied store shelves, taking with them vintage handbags and scarves with large polka dots. And today this style, feeling much more confident, appears in houses, apartments and even offices.
To introduce it into the interior, mustard color will come in handy. The main thing is to follow all the rules of combination. For example, a cocktail of light mustard and purple with shades of fuchsia will be a winning option for a spacious living room. Do you prefer white to decorate your room, but want to dilute it a little with bright colors? Place a chair in a mustard shade or paint one of the walls in this tone - you will be surprised by the result.
The color we are discussing is a derivative of yellow, so it goes well with the gray palette, diluting its gloominess with its solar energy. Cool sea freshness emanates from the combination of dim, almost transparent blue and mustard shades - this duet recently received an almost metaphorical name (a breath of fresh air).
