Great decor book
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 22 years ago
I love the décor in this the book. The rooms shown here tend to have clean and modern lines yet they are richly and elegantly decorated, rather than flowery, rustic or cluttered. The book is arranged by color and includes a chapter for each of the primary and secondary colors as well as chapters on pastel and neutral color schemes. Each section first gives background information on the color including its characteristics. It then shows 5-6 example rooms with swatches of the colors used. There are designers' comments on the colors as well which I really enjoyed reading. It was really nice to see rooms that use purple as their primary color. I personally love purple and it is such rarity to see it used well, without being overpowering. Though not a big fan of orange in past, seeing some of the rooms using it here has inspired me to take a second look at using it in my home. I found the chapter on setting mood with color to be very helpful.It's great that a directory of designers and photographers is included as well. If you love color and want to see it expertly used this is the book for you.
