Review:
Color Therapy at Home presents an imaginative investigation into the subtle yet powerful effects of color in our everyday lives. Mark McCauley, an accomplished interior designer, explains why we associate certain emotional, physical, or intellectual traits with reds, yellows, greens, or blues. Blues, for example, provide feelings of restoration and clarity. Reds, on the other hand, lend an active, dynamic energy to a room. Dozens of dramatic photos illustrate how colors work alone and in combination to achieve desired effects. A clear vase of vibrant red cherries, for example, forms a witty complement to a wall painted a nurturing pale green. McCauley's writing is extremely associative, as when he asserts that "brown is the homburg hat of life. It is the furtive sip from the little brown jug that provides momentary warmth on cold winter afternoons."
From the Publisher:
Practical designer tips, such as how to test your color choices, tint ceilings, or dress your interiors in colors you love to wear, enhance the inspiring photographs and engaging text. The book closes with a chart of 264 traits one may wish to increase in one's life--such as healing, trusting, or understanding--then keys each trait to specific colors. For anyone planning to redesign an entire home or simply repaint the kitchen pantry, Color Therapy at Home is provocative guide to color's profound effects on our interior well-being. --Mary Ribesky
Packed with photos of real-life inspiring interiors, this book will help you select your favorite hues and color combinations and understand why certain colors strike a chord with you.
