Remodelista Reconnaissance: The Perfect Yellow, Spotted in a Rural Retreat

March 11, 2022

This week on Remodelista Reconnaissance, we’re answering a question that’s been popping up on Instagram ever since we first featured Inness, a newly opened design-minded retreat in upstate New York. The query: What particular shade of yellow was used in the open shelving in the common dining area?

(See A Rustic, Design-Minded Retreat (with British Standard Kitchens) in Upstate New York for a full tour.)
