Yellow is getting a lot more love these days- adding warmth and joy to interiors and mixing with deep, earthy tones for stylish complexity. The kitchen benefits especially well from bold bursts of yellow so here’s a little inspo and the tiles to match.
1) Sunny zellige
A fabulous feature of yellow zellige adds light and texture to this gorgeous kitchen. Get the look with Indian Saffron from Clé Tile, Cadmium Zellige from Zia Tile, or Canary Yellow from Mosaic Factory.




2) Geometric
Colourbloack in style by matching a patterned backsplash with monotoned cabinets. The tiles used here are bespoke from Alhambra Tiles in pattern T88 but you can get a similar look with Sol from Maitland & Poate, Limet Mono by Neisha Crosland, or Adam Sulphur Encaustic from Ca’Pietra.



3) Mustard Metro
Mature mustard tones in a classic, artisan style metro tile offer a grounded design that’ll work for years. Get the look with Little Greene Bassoon from Bert & May, Carnival Oro from Fired Earth, or Mustard Seed from Fireclay Tile.




4) Playful Pattern
A patterned splashback creates a joyful feature in this otherwise neutral kitchen. Get the look with Jardín de Luna Honey Rabbit from Clay Imports, Mustard Jaffa from Jatana Interiors, or Op Art from Popham Design.



5) Trippy triangles
Yellow and white play together in this diagonal design kitchen splashback. Get the look with Harlequin Gold from Milagros Tiles, Flotilla Yellow from Claybrook Studio, or Yellow Alalpardo from Bert & May.
