If there’s one color dominating interior design in 2025, it’s yellow. Vibrant, optimistic, and versatile, this shade is standing out in various applications like paint, ceramic objects, pillows, throws, and more recently, in an unexpected piece: the statement chair in Justin and Hailey Bieber’s New York apartment.

Model Hailey Bieber shared a snapshot of the living room she shares with her husband, revealing details of a sophisticated and contemporary décor. While the iconic Dune sofa, designed by French designer Pierre Paulin, grabs initial attention, it’s the yellow armchair that stands out as the true focal point of the space.
Incorporating yellow into décor can seem challenging, especially in minimalist spaces. Still, the Biebers’ choice shows how it’s possible to balance sophistication and playfulness. The chair’s vibrant tone adds an unexpected, cheerful, and modern touch to the room’s neutral palette, proving that this color can be used elegantly — and without excess — in any space and with any budget.
According to Amthal Karim, Head of Design at Furniture And Choice, the key to successfully using butter yellow lies in how it’s paired with other colors, always keeping the desired mood in mind. Hailey opted for neutral tones like beige and off-white, which enhance the space’s elegance. But there are other equally effective combinations.
“Butter yellow with baby pink, for example, creates a soft and feminine vibe. Meanwhile, neutrals like light gray and cream offer a contemporary and elegant look,” explains Amthal. She also recommends experimenting with vibrant earthy tones — such as petrol blue, turquoise, or deep green — for a more natural and expressive effect. For those preferring a light and relaxed atmosphere, pastel tones like mint, lilac, and baby blue pair well with yellow.
Another important aspect highlighted by the expert is the piece’s design. To maintain a modern and timeless look, even when incorporating vintage furniture, it’s essential to go for contemporary silhouettes.
“To avoid a dated feel, invest in clean lines and modern shapes. Styles like Scandinavian, mid-century modern, or contemporary farmhouse highlight organized and functional spaces,” Amthal advises.
The Biebers’ chair proves that yellow is far from a risky choice — in fact, when used well, it can completely transform a space, bringing energy, style, and freshness to the décor.
