A comprehensive how-to handbook for combining color and texture with 180 ready-to-use palettes.
This guide for homeowners and professionals offers 180 foolproof combinations for effective colors and welcome textures. Each example is displayed on a single spread using color and texture swatches that clearly show how to create a coordinated decor. The carefully selected palettes include flooring; paint colors and accents; fabrics for furnishings and drapes; and surface colors, textures and materials.
The book provides dozens of options to suit any taste. Each scheme starts with a floor color, whether existing or newly installed. For example, "Country Casual" features a traditional oak floor paired with muted yellow-greens, deep orange and azure blue, plus the textures of green plaid wool and mossy green chenille.
The Home Decorator's Color and Texture Bible features:
- Basic color theory
- Choosing and combining colors
- Traditional floor materials plus newer ones such as bamboo, slate, glass, wenge, smoked oak, rubber, resin, metal
- Textures such as chenille, linen, raw silk, cotton, deep pile rug
- All fundamental hues, such as red, orange, yellow, strong green, blue.
The Home Decorator's Color and Texture Bible is a valuable compendium of information and inspiration for professionals and homeowners. The lay-flat concealed-wiro binding makes it extra easy to use.
