spaces and wall collages. I really love that the painted
frame on the wall looks like molding. Putting a frames
within a frame is not a new idea but this is a pretty
fun example.

like.













many colors you can paint a house in. It's not for everyone
but it's interesting indeed. The trim, doors, floors and etc
are all different colors!

of the color that none of it actually clashes. For
example, red and green in the above room are
complementary colors.

The black ribbons around the edges of the room
really complement the silhouettes.

soothing to the eye. When I was young, my mom told
me that looking at greenery was good for my eyes. I
never quite understood why that would be but it sure
feels soothing.

so commonly use it. It's a common color in countries
such as India where they use very saturated colors
and dyes.

ok in this one. The black really helps anchor the room. I
can just imagine it at night with candle light to reflect off of
the red walls.

funny since I seem to be able to tolerate red rooms but
there's something about this color that unsettles me when
there is too much of it. I love it as an accent color though.

The Language of Color
I truly believe that color affects many areas
of our lives. I find it fascinating how it can
change our moods and make us feel differently.
I found some books that are really neat on color
and color therapy. The Language of Color has a
simple 14 question test in it that evaluates our
individual color peferences SICA (Self-Image
Color Analysis). Each of us have colors that we
are drawn to and everyone is different in how they
feel about different colors. This book explores that.

Color Therapy at Home
This book focuses on color in the home.
Rockport Publishers publishes this book
and they are one of my favorite publishers.

Color My World - Color Inspiration for Your Home
I absolutely adore color. The living space above is so vivid
and alive with color. I love the way the designer chose a yellow
colored flooring to contrast with the walls. The tufted sofa is to
die for!

Jamie Drake's New York City Loft
I've been seeing this photo here and there lately and didn't
realize that it was from Jamie Drake's own NYC loft on
Fifth Avenue. His use of magenta is fascinating and really
draws your eyes. It doesn't hurt that I love this color.
It was really fun to explore the rest of the house instead of
just seeing the above photo.
More use of the magenta in his living room. It's a very
vibrant and unexpected color. His style is definitely
eclectic which I love as I can never seem to stick to one
style since I love so many!
He did his own room in shocking yellow. I'm not sure I
could live in a room quite this bright. To each their own.

Här kommer sockersöt inspiration till landstället. Allt för att liva upp denna galet ruggiga måndag. På torsdag bär det iaf väg till Formland. Ska bli så himla spännande. Ska ta med kameran och smälla av massa bilder från vår finfina Tine K monter (och lite annat såklart). Nu ska jag tända en brasa så blir det varm soppa till middag. Hälsar ruggugglan. xx
