| book description |

Terence Conran shares a lifetime of experience as one of the world's leading designers and retailers to explain how to make the most of color in your home Subtle and allusive, bold and invigorating, color is one of the single most powerful elements in design and decoration. Even its absence makes its presence felt. The choice of colors on offer to the home decorator is dazzling and potentially baffling - from coloured saucepans and kitchen appliances to paint and tiles - and color, like never before, is affordable and accessible. Yet handling color effectively does take both confidence and a degree of expertise. In Conran on Color, Terence Conran's shares a lifetime of experience as one of the world's leading designers, retailers and restaurateurs to explain how to make the most of this vibrant and dynamic ingredient. With reference to a wide range of sources, from nature and fashion to street markets and works of art, he reveals how to translate such examples into practical strategies for bringing color into your home. Packed with fascinating detail, sound advice and a wealth of inspiration, the book is illustrated with engaging contemporary interiors from around the world - homes that display a fresh blend of thoughtful design and individual character. As such examples reveal, using color successfully is as much about well-judged accents and focal points as it is in the choice of wall color or floor
