Mustard color in the interior of an apartment: 20 bright ideas

Among the decor, many owners especially love mustard curtains. They contain all the positivity and warmth, helping to concentrate as much light as possible in the house. Curtains can be either plain or have patterns or be combined with curtains of other colors. The most winning tandems are obtained with gray, blue and brown.

Combinations look romantic and fresh when white tulle is placed right next to the window, then there are curtains with a mustard print, and then there are plain curtains in the color of the pattern.

For the kitchen, shortened curtains are an alternative to traditional long curtains. You can also replace the classics with Roman or roller blinds.

Decorative pillows in a room with a sofa in a calm shade will also look appropriate. They can have different sizes, shades and textures, and vary in shape.

Mustard decor can also be embodied in the following items:

  1. Carpet. It should be small, have an interesting shape, thanks to which it becomes an accent.
  2. Bedspreads. Another option for a simple but effective accent for a bedroom or nursery space.
  3. Tablecloth. Kitchen textiles of the same color will become a connecting piece for all accessories in the room.
  4. Bed sheets. Choose models made of linen and satin. They always look unusual and do not require complex care.
  5. Towels. Bright textiles in the bathroom will perfectly invigorate you in the morning and lift your spirits.

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.

Combine with other shades: rules

When composing ensembles, you should focus on several principles:

  • the most successful combinations are those that can be observed in nature, especially in autumn;
  • overly bright “partners” can completely drown out mustard;
  • bright makeup with such an ensemble is not a luxury, but a necessity.

With white or black

Universal colors that can be combined with any option require special attention in this case.
White and mustard are a moderately bright pair. This ensemble will be good in an everyday wardrobe and in the office, especially in the summer: a strict white blouse + pencil skirt + beige shoes - brilliant in its simplicity! The combination with black has long been perceived as a classic, especially shown to blond and fair-skinned people. Can be used in office, evening and everyday looks . For example:

  • mustard blouse + black skirt - an image that is quite appropriate in a business setting;
  • black sweater + mustard trousers: suitable for everyday wear in the off-season;
  • mustard coat + black trouser suit;
  • lace black top + mustard silk floor-length skirt.

Important! Accessories in burgundy or brown colors will help set accents when creating an “autumn” look.

With beige or brown

The duo with beige has established itself in a casual style, which makes it suitable for everyday use.
We put on a beige suit - trouser or skirt - with a mustard turtleneck and get a fun, albeit restrained, look. An ensemble with brown color is universal - it will suit almost any color type, and only in summer its appropriateness will raise doubts . But autumn and winter are the right time for such a duet. Brown trench coat + mustard trousers (burgundy boots will go well here) - you can safely walk through the falling leaves!

With pink or lilac

Dubious ensembles! Combinations with pink are difficult in principle, but in this case they are possible if they are diluted with some dark color - you can try night blue .
Lilac is justified when creating intentionally shocking looks: we wear short mustard pants with a jacket in a lilac check - attention from others is guaranteed!

With yellow or purple

Yellow is possible in pale versions like lemon, but it is hardly successful in a bright version - you can only use details like a scarf, handbag or shoes. Suitable for spring youth bows .
Combinations with purple are possible if they are very rich shades. Suitable for the brave and young: purple short flared skirt + mustard pullover + neutral-colored sneakers (gray or beige).

With green or mint

Combinations with both bright (but not acidic!) and dark shades are wonderful. An ensemble of mustard top and marsh bottom is good for everyday use; for a holiday, a combination with herbal shades is good. The mint color impresses with its freshness, and the contrast of warm mustard and cold menthol creates a bright and cheerful set.

Important! Bright green with mustard is very fashionable, but dark skin may look unhealthy in such a “frame”!

With cherry or red

Always a win-win combination - bright and harmonious! Cherry color in combination with mustard is also suitable for business looks, if the style of clothing is quite strict, and the rules of the dress code are not very strict .
Cherry turtleneck + moderately mustard-colored suit + dark brown shoes - very stylish! All shades of red will help you put together a bright set - to brighten up everyday life and match the holiday atmosphere. A red coat worn over a mustard dress will provide a cheerful autumn mood. Red trousers + mustard sweater – you won’t get lost in the crowd!

With blue or light blue

A combination reminiscent of a cheerful autumn sunny morning! Very fresh, especially with deep shades of mustard.
It's time to think about jeans - skinny or wide - from pale blue to indigo. We match them with a coat or raincoat, jacket or blazer (pay attention to corduroy models!), a shirt or turtleneck in all shades of mustard - the option will be a win-win.

With gray

Light or dark, gray will perfectly dilute mustard. The contrast will be unsharp, which means it will be appropriate at work, on a walk, or while traveling . Wanting to make the ensemble more catchy, feel free to add blue or red, green or purple.

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.

It is not for nothing that the use of mustard color in the interior is so popular, because the warmth and brightness that it gives will not be out of place in a room for any purpose: from the bedroom and nursery to the bathroom. In the photo you can see what winning designs can be obtained with the correct use of a rich palette of shades in a large and limited area.

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.

What does color psychology say about mustard?

A deep, slightly dirty, earthy yellow, like other colors in the “yellow” family, has a stimulating effect. Mustard-colored surfaces or accessories capture the eye. A wall or pillow in this color will attract the attention of guests and will also help emphasize the uniqueness of the selected part of the interior. A darker, more noble shade of yellow is associated with energy, vitality and freshness and adds elegance.

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.
