Great Color & Textures Book!

This was just the book I was looking for, really covers color scheme's, color palettes and fabric coordination's well. I use it to help me begin a project or to help clients understand color schemes that will go well with what they are trying to achieve. Great Book! Elle

great idea book

This book is great. Even if you have a good color sense you will find inspiration here. I highly recommend this book. Regardless of your color expertise you will find yourself looking at it time and again.

Used one of the patterns for our house

We just painted our living/dining room and kitchen from one of the patterns. So from my perspective this is a excellent book since we actually made use of it! The only thing I had trouble with is matching the authors color names to the in-store experience. Author calls one "Clotted Cream" but that was not much help with an internet search so we matched it to one we liked (Behr color 300E-2 Calm Air). Same thing with the green which the author calls "Pastel Meadow Green". We matched this to Behr 420F-4 Sagey.
