How obvious it is that color has its various connotations-hue, value, and intensity - and without the basic understanding of these three determining factors, we are somewhat limited in the proper use of color in rooms.

It is general knowledge for anyone interested in color that subdued value, intensity and hue make for quieter, less adventuresome interiors. Stronger approaches need stronger knowledge, more experience and flair.

Remember, color is not just color, but mood, temperature and structure.

The overscaled compositions being produced by so many abstract painters, which are full of movement and use of color, are ideal example, ideal transformations of an entire wall and entire room.... There is no denying that one of the major attractions of these successful large compositions is their structural decorative use in the contemporary scene... That these large canvases can be superbly decorative may not be considered complimentary by some of the artists involved.

Interiors speak! Rooms emphasize whether one exists or lives, and there is a great difference between the two!

Better rooms better furniture, better objects d'art can only be created for a society interested in living - not existing.

Too many bright colors make for congestion. Too many bright colors need, above all, contrast in value, to eliminate vibration.
