Tricia Guild on Colour: Decoration, Furnishing, Display

by Tricia Guild, Elizabeth Wilhide, David Montgomery (Photographer)

Tricia Guild examines colour theory as well as its myriad applications. Seven individual chapters then take a detailed look at the colour families - white, blue, green, yellow, natural, terracotta and red. Each chapter of the book analyzes specific examples of good colour application, providing colour boards for specially created interiors and giving examples and suggestions for colour combinations and contrasts. Finally, a section of colour palettes provides an inspirational guide to choosing Tricia Guild's colour schemes for a variety of interiors in your own home.

[Marilyn]

Visually appealing and set up usefully by colour.

[Anita]

This is such a visually beautiful book - she creates textiles but this is also about the beauty of color in nature and creative natural combinations. I'm not sure I've ever read all the text, but the pictures still stir my soul.
