DECORATING with COLOUR

Colour is amazingly powerful: re-paint a room and we can instantly change its mood and how it makes us feel. Colour can also help us maximise the light or act as a counterbalance to the direction a room faces. We choose different tones, often without even realising it, to suit the purpose of an area – yellow for a morning or breakfast room, and deep reds and inky blues for night-time rooms used for sitting or dining. This magazine offers an array of decorating suggestions for every room in the home, incorporating all the shades and hues available to us. Happy decorating!
