Keep deep yellows from overwhelming the room by mixing with sharp mid-greys (and in this case, a crisp white to break it up). The colours used here are Resene Alpine, Resene Alabaster and Resene Silver Chalice, and pictured with Polar by James Dunlop, a geometric jacquard sheer with a softened angular design. 

Dusky colours are a perfect accompaniment to mustard and deep yellows. Get the look with Resene Alpine, Resene Silver Chalice, Resene Alabaster Resene Half Smalt Blue (triangle), Resene Rusty Nail (first circle), Resene Stinger (second circle) and Resene Gravel and Resene Black (rectangle). 

The colours here are paired with Infinity, on the couch and cushions, and Tabular, also on the cushions, both by James Dunlop. 

Different shades of deep yellows – from dusky to green-tinted – work so well together, as seen with this fabric, Tangent in Chartreuse by James Dunlop, against the wall in Resene Alpine, Resene Alabaster and Resene Silver Chalice.

Or keep this standout colour the hero, with one shade combined with a few shades of grey. Pictured here is Resene Alpine, Resene Alabaster and Resene Silver Chalice on the walls, and curtains in Isobars by James Dunlop.
