In the interest of full disclosure, I was provided with a copy of this book for review purposes. This review originally appeared on my blog.As the title suggests, this book focuses on the importance of color in the world of interior design. The first part of the book is devoted to instruction, as Chasworth shares the various types of color schemes.The next part of the book is devoted to discussing each of the major colors, and how they make people feel. Chasworth provides recommendations for which rooms would benefit from a particular color, and which colors would be detrimental in certain areas of the house. For example, red is not good for rooms that are intended for relaxation, and turquoise can inspire creativity.After discussing color placement, Chasworth provides an exercise that determines the reader’s color, and whether s/he is a “spring”, “summer”, “autumn”, or “winter”. Once that has been assessed, Chasworth shares recommendations for color scheme. I took the test, and discovered that I am a spring. Chasworth says, “You will gravitate toward colors that are light, bright, and clear…your room should feel light, airy, and uplifting.” Chasworth even provides tips for accommodating more than one season in the home.The final part of the book is devoted to advice about the home: tips and tricks, making rooms look bigger, and different types of paint. Chasworth includes “worksheets” that allow the reader to brainstorm each room of the house. What do you want to achieve in regards to the living room, the dining room, etc. Each of those pages includes advice and insight for things that generally work/don’t work in each room.I will admit that I was a little nervous when I began reading this book.
