Synopsis

Interiors based on predominant shades of white or cream, with the texture of bare wood for contrast, are a feature of many cultures, from the cooler climates of Scandinavia to the hotter Mediterranean countries. The effect of such rooms is calming and relaxing, the decoration is very simple to create and to coordinate, and the look is timeless. This book shows how to create beautiful interiors using neutral tones and natural materials, providing practical instructions on colour washing wood, window treatments, paint effects, soft furnishings, stripped furniture or simple display ideas. Concentrating on practicality and simplicity of style, it offers advice on creating an interior to be lived in.
