Features of yellow sofas
At the mention of yellow, associations with the sun, warmth, light and pleasant emotions immediately arise. Many people are impressed by this joyful touch in the interior, so modern manufacturers offer a wide selection of sofas in this color scheme. According to psychologists, color adjusts a person to an optimistic mood, improves mood, gives courage. It is proved that yellow contributes to the generation of new ideas, and by surrounding himself with objects of this color, a person accepts alternative points of view much more easily.

However, yellow has both positive and negative effects. With an excessive amount of shade, it causes such unpleasant conditions in a person as:
- excessive criticality;
- uncontrollable desire to argue;
- excessive self-confidence;
- intolerance.
However, in order for this unpleasant effect to manifest itself, there must be a lot of yellow in the interior. Therefore, in the design of the apartment, one sofa in this color scheme will be quite enough.

Varieties
Depending on the purpose of the yellow sofa, there are three main options for this type of furniture.
- Folding. This is a sofa bed that performs several functions at once: in the daytime, this furniture is assembled and is used for communicating with friends, relaxing with a book, watching TV or gadgets, and at night it moves apart and creates a full-fledged sleeping place. Such models usually have the highest technical and operational characteristics, and depending on the transformation mechanism, they can be performed in different versions: "book", "eurobook", "click-gag", "dolphin", "accordion" and many others.

Thanks to a wide variety of sofas of different designs, each owner of a living space can equip his interior in accordance with personal preferences and room dimensions.
Materials (edit)
The appearance of the yellow sofa and the duration of its operation largely depend on the correct choice of upholstery. That is why, even at the stage of purchase, it is important to take into account the peculiarities of using this furniture. So, if you are planning to place a sofa in a nursery or there are pets in your house, then it is better to turn out right away from expensive materials that require a very careful attitude. In this case leather furniture should be avoided, since leather is very capricious and at the same time expensive.

Let's consider more practical options.
Velours
Dense warm fabric that creates a cozy feeling in the room. This material is perfectly combined with the style of shabby chic and boho. Velor has an aesthetic appearance, and a wide range of shades allows you to choose the optimal tone that will harmoniously fit into the interior.
The material is quite durable, breathable well and retains its shape even with strong pushing... Cleaning the velor is also not difficult: the simplest cleaning agent and a vacuum cleaner will be enough to care for the coating.

Flock
The material is ideal for homes where animals live, as it retains its shape and condition even under the influence of cat and dog claws. It is resistant to most cleaning agents, it is hypoallergenic, therefore it is safe for people with pathologies of the respiratory and skin systems. The undoubted advantage of such a material will be the fact that the flock does not fade, even if direct sunlight falls on it. This quality is very much appreciated when it comes to upholstered furniture.

Jacquard
Quite expensive material that directly indicates the social and financial status of home owners. The canvas is completely free of lint and includes both natural and artificial fibers. Jacquard is an environmentally friendly and hypoallergenic material with high strength parameters.
Jacquard is cleaned from dirt using detergents that do not contain aggressive components.

Tapestry
It is a natural material that is most often used in classic interiors. Such upholstery usually contains images of landscapes in a variety of colors. This canvas is very pleasant to the touch, it can take any shape and is easy to clean. That's why tapestry is very popular in the manufacture of corner and modular furniture.

Chenille
The fabric is similar to tapestry and belongs to the category of expensive materials. This is due to the long life of such surfaces.However, chenille is rather tough and does not conduct heat well: sleeping on such furniture is inconvenient, most often the upholstery is used for the production of stationary sofas. Cleaning is allowed only dry, without the use of water and liquid compounds.

Unusual matter, on the surface of which the fibers form nodules of a dense structure. This structure gives the material additional strength, abrasion and wear resistance. However, such furniture is strongly not recommended for installation in homes where cats, dogs and large rodents live.

Sizes and shapes
Usually, yellow sofas of the following shapes are used in the interior.
- Angular... Due to their decorative appearance and durability, such structures have become quite popular models. Corner sofas harmoniously fit into any interior, regardless of the style and footage of the room. They look organic, tend to transform and create a full-fledged double sleeping block for a night's rest. Usually, a corner sofa is additionally equipped with a storage unit for bedding.

Special attention should be paid to the issues of combining yellow with other colors in the interior. First, let's look at contrasting combinations.
- The combination of yellow and purple is very cozy and warm. Lilac and blackberry tones are not so bright, but at the same time they favorably set off yellow. Usually, a yellowish sofa is decorated with lilac pillows, complemented with curtains or a purple carpet.

- Black and yellow combinations usually used to decorate a room in modern pop art and art deco styles. In this case, the dark color of the walls is diluted by an expensive chandelier with a golden glow and furniture of a deep yellow color scheme.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/337-253/2019/10/zheltye-divany-ispolzovanie-v-interere-sochetanie-cvetov-16.jpg)

- Combination with green At first glance, it may seem too bright, but if you use light colors, then it will add a little spring warmth and freshness to the interior. However, lovers of rich colors can always try an interesting tandem of a canary sofa with bright green pillows.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/cropped/337-253/2019/10/zheltye-divany-ispolzovanie-v-interere-sochetanie-cvetov-18.jpg)

How to choose the interior?
The yellow sofas can be installed in a wide variety of functional areas: in the living room, children's room, as well as in the dining room, in the kitchen and even in the bedroom.
A yellow sofa looks best near a window. Then the light falling on it will add comfort to the room. A small square coffee table will be appropriate near the sofa, and it is better to use wall sconces for lighting. It is advisable to purchase an armchair of the same shade and style in the set for the sofa and put it opposite. In order to achieve maximum immersion in style, throughout the room you need to arrange large vases of flowers and hang pictures.
In the kitchen, a brightly colored sofa is usually installed in the place where the family dines daily. The set includes a glass table and several stylish chairs in black or graphite color.

A safe option for placing upholstered furniture of such a rich shade will be a children's room, because kids prefer everything bright. It is best to purchase a transformer model, and you can decorate the sofa with turquoise or blue pillows. When choosing a yellow sofa, it is extremely important to choose a shade: it should be pleasing to the eye, not cause irritation and anxiety.
The yellow color is quite easily soiled, because you will have to deal with surface contamination on a regular basis.
The best option would be products with removable covers. If the model does not provide for this possibility, try to purchase a product with such upholstery that it will be easy and quick to clean.
