Yellow walls

Having the decorator in in a few weeks to do quite a bit. It's going to be all white as the house is quite dark downstairs. We've not decided which white yet. Possibly Crown Sail White. I was thinking of doing a wall or two in yellow to help brighten the place up. Not the bright canary yellow of my teenage room but also not as deep as mustard. I'm looking for a rich, warm, bright yellow.
Has anyone used one like this? Please share...google has so overwhelmed me with options and it's so hard to tell from swatches.

Maybe you could get a big vibrant picture? More stylish and fun that a feature wall.

My daughter's bedroom is a light primrose yellow. It looks great in a bedroom, not sure I'd do a livingroom in it.

Babouche F&B

(or a copy)

But could be a bit much for a large room

Just used Zoffany’s Vermeer Yellow on our guest room/study and en-suite. It’s gorgeous and has a rich velvety matte finish.

I've just painted a fireplace in babouche today! (Well, I colour matched at Johnstone's) it's very yellow- slightly more buttery than we wanted, I think we wanted more mustard. It would be very statement as a whole wall but googling images it can look good
