Colour has the power to evoke memories and create moods, to change the sense of space and bring warmth or coolness, light or dark, to an interior. Used to best effect, with a clear understanding of the way it works, colour is the key to successful interior decoration. This source book of how to use colour to enhance any interior design scheme opens up new vistas for the novice or experienced decorator. It illustrates the basic principles of colour action in an approachable way, and shows how these can be put to work in a wealth of ideas for decorating the home. A series of colour portraits demonstrates the range of hues and identifies the pigments that make up the infinite variety of colours, each of which is given in-depth treatment.

Annie Sloan specializes in decorative painting for walls and furniture, focusing on developing patinas and colour combinations. She runs courses in decorative painting and colour ideas and has developed her own range of paints - Annie Sloan's Traditional Paints - that recreate the look, texture and colour s of traditional paint finishes. She lives in Oxford. Kate Gwynn works as a mural artist and interior decoator. She is also a part-time teacher of decorative techniques and trompe l'oeil. She lives in Twickenham.
