At Home With Color

by Matthew Dennison

We all have favorite colors that make us feely happy, comfortable, and relaxed. When it comes to decorating our home, these are the colors to which we turn. But there is more to successful decorating with color than navigating our way through paint charts. The appearance of color alters in changing light, in small or large spaces, in rooms with high and low ceilings, in interiors that are heavily or sparsely furnished. At Home with Color by Matthew and Grainne Dennison addresses all these issues and shows you how to achieve a stylish, cohesive look in every area of the home. In contemporary homes living spaces are arranged one area flows into another in increatingly informal arrangements. At Home With Color reflects this trend, showing you how to use color throughout your home, in spaces for entertaining or relaxing, in bathrooms, kitchens, and bedrooms. Whether you lean toward a fashionable retro look, country-inspired relaxed chic, or cool, sleek modernity, At Home With Color will inspire you to look again at the potential of color to transform your home. Great ideas for living spaces of all shapes and sizes, whether old or new, urban or rural. Beautifully photographed by Chris Everard.
