Swatch Selector: Choosing Color and Texture for Your Home

A unique mix-and-match guide to decorating that includes tear-out swatches! The clever three-part format of the selector enables anyone planning a room to see whether the colors, textures, and patterns they're considering for walls, floors, and fabrics work together. To use, just flip the split pages back and forth to find the perfect elements. There are 70 suggestions each for walls and floors, and more than 200 different fabric choices for thousands of different combinations. Each spread presents winning combinations for a wide variety of styles and finishes; when you've found the right one, just bring the swatches to the store for reference. Information on the basics of interior design, deciding on a look, selecting a color scheme--all provide a little extra help, and the spreads are grouped in colors: neutrals and naturals; reds and pink; oranges; yellows, greens; blues; lilacs and purples; coffee and chocolate; and black, white, and gray.
