The harmonious home : designing peaceful, personal spaces inspired by nature. by Atwood, Rebecca.;
"A holistic approach to interior design that uses the colors, patterns, and textures of your favorite natural landscapes to make your home an oasis, from the author of Living with Color and Living with Pattern. Designing my first house proved to me how helpful our favorite landscapes -- the ones that nourish our souls -- are for making decorating decisions in our homes. They're where you find the colors, patterns, and shapes that make your home feel like you. Hailed by Vogue for her "approachable patterns and textiles" Rebecca Atwood has shared numerous design tips for utilizing color and patterns in the home. In The Harmonious Home, she details a new approach to home design, one guided by mood or the feeling that spaces can evoke. And because nature has such a strong pull on human emotion, she shows you how to use the language of real landscapes to inform your own design. The language of landscape can help make design accessible -- more so than thinking about designing a room in a specific style, like midcentury modern, bohemian, or contemporary. Think of a place that contains the mood you want to create in your home. Identify the colors in its landscape and you can choose paint colors. Pick out its textures and you can decide what materials -- rugs, wallpaper, upholstery fabric -- to bring into the room. You can look to a beach, field, garden, or even a cityscape to find color and pattern combinations you might not have imagined on your own and elevate a room with contrasting finishes and textures borrowed from nature. With gorgeous images from real homes around the country and practical tips for selecting the elements you want to include, The Harmonious Home offers endless inspiration for building a room around a mood-taking you from collected swatches to spectacular results"--Library Bound Incorporated
