Carolyn Warrender's Book of Colour Scheming

An illustrated guide to understanding, choosing and using colour in your home. The colour spectrum is divided into seven groups, named after natural elements - earth, fire, air, water, wind, mineral, and natural - and helps the reader identify the colours they are happy to live with. The book is divided into two main sections: "Understanding Colour," which explains the seven elements in terms of warm and cool tones, and how these colours affect us; and "Living With Colour," which contains photographs illustrating the choice of colour schemes for different rooms. With its practical approach and the use of colour photographs, this book should give its readers confidence in their decorating decisions. By helping them to choose the home furnishing colours that are right for them, it should enable everyone to become their own interior designer.
