Resumen:
The Color Design Source Book. Here, leading authority on interior design, Caroline Clifton-Mogg, guides you expertly through every aspect of using color in the home, from choosing the right scheme for the right room to adding the perfect finishing touches. The first hurdle is finding inspiration, so advice is offered on applying the lessons of nature, art, and history to your home. Caroline then explores color in depth, delving into the nuances of the interior decorator's palette. All colors have hidden subtleties and resonances - think of the rich brown of tanned leather, the gray-blue of a frozen pond, the faded purple of old velvet - and, depending on how they are used, they can make or break a room's design. No color works in isolation, and successful color combination is the only way to achieve a winning design scheme. "The Color Design Source Book" shows a wide range of classic and unusual looks - sometimes subtle and sophisticated, sometimes bold and humorous, but always stylish and inspirational. The book also offers advice on using colors to create the atmosphere you want or to affect the shape or size of a room. |
