I have a huge infatuation with doors that is borderline obsessive/compulsive. They add such savvy style and oomph to any room, especially when painted an unexpected color. I recently started daydreaming about yellow doors in my studio. I have 8′ doors that are painted a glossy black ( shown above) that I have grown tired of. Probably just the A.D.D designer in me wanting a fresh new look. I briefly thought about raspberry pink, then acid green, and now I am seriously considering yellow. It is such an electric and energetic color; perfect for a hectic, busy office like mine. Here are a few of my favorites!
So stunning with the black and white walls.
Oh my, so dramatic! Isn’t that pop of color just terrific?
Great pop of color in an otherwise non descript room.
Incredible barn door that is already unusual but add a splash of yellow and it’s just plain fun!
Number 2 pencil on a dutch door, does it get any better.
Such a theatrical entrance and great energy for visiting guests.
Hardly seems cold outside with these cheery doors warming up your spirits.
What are some of your favorite colors for a door?

oh I agree with the “unexpected” decorating idea, just love it. Yellow is fab, wish I could use it as well as they have in these spaces!
Beautiful! I love turquoise doors and I’ve always wanted a red or black front door.
Such bright colors. I especially love it on the exterior doors. I have wated to paint some inside doors black, but I love these examples!
I hope that you have a great day!

Do it ! I painted my front door orange and I love it.
Love the yellow, of course red is pretty common and so it green…I like mediterranean blue if I live in a mediterranean region…how about a happy orange…or an elegant birch

love to Mr Harley!
I couldn’t wait to open this! I painted my front door yellow when we first moved in this home. It did not sit well with neighbors as black and white is what everyone should have I guess! I’ve since painted it Tiffany blue, but yellow has quite the spot in my heart!!!! Hot pink is the other aspiration for doors, front or interior, I will have them by the end of my days! Have a great weekend, Kelly
I have that picture, 2nd down of “Yellow Painted Door” , in my files too. Love it, love it! Our front door needs a redo and I would love to do a yellow, or lime green/chartreuse: just have to convince my husband!
So bold! Yet everything turned out gorgeous! Have a fabulous weekend, Kellie xx
Beautiful doors with my favorite color! I think yellow is fantastic, but a red or kelly green door would be beautiful too!
Fabulous and festive, Amanda! I can’t think of a room that could be any more cheerful than one with yellow doors!? Love it!
