Helps you really understand how colors affect you

I bought this book mostly for advice on decorating my home. I chose the right book. It has helped me understand colors that will suit me & make my guests feel welcome. The book provides background on color science & our perceptions of different colors. It then explains the four color palettes corresponding to the seasons and how these groups in our environment affect our lives. Next you discover the colors & palette best suited to your personality through testing & detailed descriptions. Using this information, I discovered clothing colors that really bring out my personality & help me be more productive.There is also a section on color in commerce which explains the concepts behind color in advertising. This is a much deeper subject than I had imagined and this book effectively explains the significance of the colors around us.

An exceptional book which you will keep going back to....

Have you ever wondered why you have a favorite colour, or why an advertsing campaign has effected you so much? Have you ever walked into an office and wanted to work there or buy their products? What about some of your friends homes - why do you just relax and chat away in some while always feeling its time to go in others....Angela Wright takes us through both the theory and practical application like a breeze. Whether a novice or an expert you won't regret picking this one up.Buy it....enough said!
