Color Palettes: Atmospheric Interiors
Using the Donald Kaufman Color Collection
by Suzanne K. Butterfield, Donald Kaufman, Jacqueline Goewey
Hardcover: 208 pages
ISBN: 060960144X
Filled with information that takes the mystery out of how color works in a room. Twenty six amazing interiors are shown with explanations of why each palette was chosen, and how individual colors affect each other and the rooms in which they are used. The color palettes are shown as swatches to provide ready-made color groupings that we can adapt for our own homes.
I was introduced to this book by a Client who had just completed a very modern, but fairly neutral, ocean front home. I was there to design custom runners and placemats for her 12 foot long kitchen table. I immediately fell in love with this book and bought a copy. I warn you, it’s hard not to head out to the paint store after looking at the pictures in Color Palettes! The ideas it contains will work in any home, large or small.
