The colors in my house are AMAZING because of this book.
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 17 years ago
I don't know very much about color. I just know what colors I like. And this book helped me work with those colors and match them with others so that my rooms look phenomenal. I painted two rooms before I had The Color Palette Primer and I paid to redo them once I bought it because I saw what a difference it made. Thank you to the author for creating such a great resource!
A mind opening look at color
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This interesting book is a highly informative and useful field guide to the world of color. Not only did I get useful theory and a handy book of palettes for decorating and fashion....but I also found it so much fun to browse through. After we bought a house, I kept this book at my bedside for several weeks and every night enjoyed looking through the pages, thinking about color combinations and possibilities. This will be a reference book I'll always keep.
BEST BOOK ON COLOR
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 19 years ago
The Color Palette Primer is the single best book on color out there. First of all, it has the largest number of palettes (aside from the color book--but YOU have to make your own palette--here you are given the color palette picked by an expert). There are dozens of choices no matter what your taste. This is so different than most other color palette books that give you a couple dozen palettes, and where only one or two appeal to you at most. It also has an amazing introduction that explains the basic principles of color and how to apply them to your particular situation (what kind of light you get, when you use your room(s)). I bought this book because I have Eckstut's other book, Room Redux, which is phenomenal as well. You simply can't go wrong with this one.
