Bright Yellow Breakfast Room

Lifestyle photographer Daniel Collopy chose yellow as the main color for the dining room remodel of his West Hollywood apartment. The project involved replacing wall-to-wall carpet with a white-stained plywood herringbone floor and adding architecture to the room with removable wall paneling.

To ensure the graphic impact of the wall paneling was visible from the entrance as well as from the adjacent kitchen, Daniel had the dining room's two main walls clad with the custom yellow-and-white treatment.

To give a retail pendant fixture a custom showroom look, Daniel had his contractor spray the outside white and the inside canary yellow.

To give the dining set a designer update, Daniel had the chairs and table sprayed with a glossy yellow finish and the chairs reupholstered with a traditional ethnic print.
