When you think of yellow, what do you picture? The Mediterranean sunshine? Sunbathing by the ocean on a warm summer’s day? Or perhaps you think of your own back garden. Whatever the colour yellow conjures up for your kitchen, tiles can add a pop of colour – no matter what colour your appliances are – and radiate warmth, sunshine and good energy.

If you’re going for a slightly more rustic approach with your kitchen, completely covering it in yellow brick tiles can make you feel like you’ve stepped into a whole new house. Pick a slightly darker, more subdued shade for this one, or use complementary colours against each other to create a more complex and interesting design.

Yellow can be quite a bold colour choice, especially if your preference is closer to brighter shades, like lemon. In this instance, consider pairing your tiles with another softer colour – like shades of green or blue – and use the tiles to create a pattern around the wall that doesn’t overwhelm the entire room. Alternatively, you could use yellow tiles on their own and paint around them to make the tiles even more distinctive.
