About Ultimate Gray and Illuminating
Yellow
The 2021 Colors of the Year symbolize a blend of resilience and optimism, offering a refreshing modern aesthetic for any space. Combining Illuminating's bright, hopeful vibe with Ultimate Gray's solid reliability encourages a sense of possibility while keeping you anchored. This dynamic duo is beautifully captured in select framed art, enhancing interiors with their contrasting yet complementary energies. In both Stone Gardens III Yellow by Silvia
Vassileva and Neutral Abstract Floral
II by Lanie Loreth, they use these colors to convey a sense of harmony. Each color does have its
own merits as well, and they are sure to be the color trends of this year.
Illuminating is a soft and shining yellow that doesn't overwhelm. Unlike most yellows, it
isn't harsh on the eyes. It more resembles the warmth of the sun without looking directly at it. It's
also an extremely versatile color combining well with many tones. Use it as an accent to illuminate any
space. When used with gray, this color takes itself to a new level. The contrast itself is enough to
draw the eye and never let it leave. If Illuminating is the leading lady, Ultimate Gray brings it back
to the center and gives it a welcome break.
Ultimate Gray is a softer tone of the color that
doesn't dissuade from the strength that it brings. With the perception of gray being a boring color,
some may glance past it. The truth is, it can create depth and breathe life into rooms. Either as a
backdrop to more colorful wall art or a full gray living room with a white ceiling, to give a more
modern take. Combining it with Illuminating takes its dynamic properties in a new and exciting
direction. When gray is the predominant color of a room, yellow gives it a pop of color and a nice touch
of warmth.

Since daylight wakes you in the morning, this color is
great in spaces that need a bit of freshness. If you're looking for a truly bright experience, adding
oranges and pinks get you closer to a sunset look. While adding turquoise and gray will provide more of a
cooling look. You can also add this color with pillows, furniture, or living room art. This gives you the
taste of sunshine without encompassing the entire space with it. Whether you're looking for a more modern
style or rustic charm, Illuminating can do both. Yellow allows your eyes to refocus without taking away your
attention from any other decoration. This is why it's such a simple color to use to give warmth without
compromise.
