Pls recommend a gold/yellow for whole first floor

I generally prefer neutrals however a family member has a sunny yellow family room and I love it.

Yellow is my favorite color. We have a two story foyer painted Wyndham Cream, which is really more ivory than yellow, and Hawthorn Yellow in a few other rooms.

To each their own though!

Exactly how I felt as I painted over our bright red kitchen. I have no idea why you would paint a kitchen red.

I see a red wall and I want it painted black.

I can't stand yellow walls either and while i like great, it's just so ubiquitous. We painted our dining room Valspar Churchill Hotel Maple and it's a nice warm lighter brown. I really love it.

Red is supposed to make you eat more, so that's why people painted dining rooms and kitchens red. Although considering how fat America is, I don't know why anyone would want that...

Ben Moore Shooting Star - we varied from 50% - 100% throughout the first floor except for two v diff dark blues in a couple rooms. An interior designer helped us pick & we love it.

Whenever I see houses with vibrant red and yellow walls I feel like I'm at a fast food restaurant. Yuck.

We use Behr Country Dairy on our first floor. It is a nice cream color with yellow undertones.

We have used Benjamin Moore's Rich Cream in our last three houses and in rooms with lower light- it is a nice butter yellow color. I think it would be great for a first floor.

Also I like the rec for SW's Butter Up. It is a great yellow.

We used Hazelwood by Dunn Edwards and it's been perfect http://www.myperfectcolor.com/en/color/94972_Match-of-Dunn-Edwards-DE5281-Hazelwood

If you house-hunted in the late 90s/early oughts there were so many red kitchens and dining rooms, it was crazy.

We used BM Weston Flax for our basement, which has some light (it's a walkout with large windows), but needed some warmth on the walls.

BM Soleil looks great in the north facing living room/kitchen of our 1920s bungalow. I'm from Europe where all walls are white, but in a room with little sun soleil is just what we needed.
