From color-drenched spaces to micro color-pops, the hues we choose to live with have a huge impact on our wellbeing. Step inside 12 homes that use color as a backdrop for everyday life.

Color is a universal language and a channel for creativity and imagination. It taps into our minds, evokes emotions, and gets under our skin. In this book, Sara Bird and Dan Duchars share how to be inventive with color while making soulful and sustainable choices. In the first section, Color Chemistry, they begin with the color wheel and explore tonal and complementary schemes as well as how to choose the right finish, whether a flat matt or glossy glaze. They also explore the psychology of color and consider ways to highlight stand-out features. In part two, Color for the Soul, the authors visit 12 real homes with palettes that nod to individuality, where naturally pigmented materials bring charisma through chroma. Arranged in four chapters (Natural, Minimalist, Maximalist and Accents), these case studies show how to add heart and soul with sustainable choices and eco-friendly ideas. Be inspired to bring new ideas to your home and create a positive place that enhances your life.
