The first interior decorating and lifestyle book from former fashion
designer Matthew Williamson, who has been designing with bold,
contrasting color for almost three decades, is an invitation to find your
own style and embrace color and pattern to live bright .
Think beige, grey, and white are the only neutrals? Think again. As a lifelong
fan of rich jewel tones, fashion designer turned interiors expert Matthew
Williamson makes the case for living cocooned in color. Pink can be subtle,
warming, and very livable; while used sparingly, fiery red can get you going.
Let Williamson help you find your style DNA, and you'll soon be getting out the
paintbrush and turning bland corners of your home into a technicolor paradise.
Packed with inspirational images of interior decorating projects, including
Williamson's own homes in London and Mallorca, as well as visual references
that will transport you to places close to his heart, Living Bright is the
hardworking handbook to take on your journey to colorful living.
No space is too small and no project too big. Just follow Williamson's simple
instructions, work out which shades speak to you, and discover a lifetime of
kaleidoscopic color that awaits. Now is the time to banish boring and learn to
live bright with joyful interiors that will lift your mood without punishing your
bank balance. Whether serene soft pink or lively mustard yellow, earthy olive
green or rich regal purple, there's a color palette that will work for everyone
and every home.
