the pictures and colors in this book are amazing - almost edible. lee encourages you to break away from your preconceived notions about darker paint colors in your home, and helps with combinations of color i never would have thought of. even if you never use it for decorating or painting, the richness of this book makes it fun to look through.

I love the colors in this book. Each chapter addressed a specific set of dark colors and their history. It gave examples of how it could work in almost any room. I like that this book wasn't only about painting but also accents and lighting a room that has color.

I enjoy rich colors and found this book a feast for the eyes.

I am forever reading decorating bks but rarely implementing ideas (perhaps because i like so few of them... (don't sometimes covers seem much more appealing than the actual book itself?)
I took an occupation interior design class in high school and (believe) i already have an inate sense of color and design. These colours aren't so much for me~i think in the end it all comes down to doing what you like and feel (and know you can live with and in~take everyone elses' opinion with a grain of salt.
This book like so many others has great pictures and some ideas but is a little thin on content... (tho it is always nice to look at pictures...)
