Colour NowSynopsis: Do you want to add some colour to your life ? In this beautiful book Kevin McCloud of Channel 4’s Grand Designs shows you how to master colour, how to use it in sophisticated ways and how to employ it to transform your surroundings. Featured are 65 tried-and-tested palettes built from over 100 compatible colours that can be used as decorative blueprints for your own home-whether period, modern, rustic, or urban. Useful tips and trade secrets on colour relationships and how to manipulate the palettes are included, while every swatch is also matched to a commercially available paint. Informative, accessible, authorative and inspiring, Kevin McCloud’s Colour Now will enable you to unlock a world of colour.

Hot Brands Verdict

We are fascinated by colours here at Hot Brands, like Kevin McCloud we believe that colours influence our moods and can trigger powerful emotions. What we love about this book is his down-to-earth approach to colour. Completely unpretentious, this book examines where colour comes from, the origins, how they work, either in isolation, or in combination, and how to apply them in a context of interior design. Throughout the book there is a commentary, quotes and photographs illustrating the use of different colour palettes. If you are looking for colour inspiration this book is perfect, and if you are living with a decorating disaster, this handy little book will help you find your way back to harmony! We loved it!
