Colour Inspiration

Using photographs of contemporary interiors, this book shows colour used in exemplary and sometimes unexpected ways. Chapters are dedicated to different colour schemes and demonstrate how to use different coloured paint and combine it with soft furnishings and accessories to create the best results. It shows how to create different effects from subtle tones and shades to dramatic focal points. It examines the effect that colour has on mood and atmosphere and how this can be used to the best advantage. A practical section gives information on materials and techniques to provide all the technical know-how needed to re-create these colour schemes together with paint swatches to ensure that identical paints can be made up.
