Description
Bring the transformative power of colour into your life with the help of Hans Blomquist, whose inspiring interiors will enable you to find the right colours for your home.
Colour is powerful – it can change our moods or raise our spirits. It can be positively life-enhancing, yet so many of us struggle to choose the right shades for our home. In the Mood for Colour reveals celebrated interior stylist Hans Blomquist's passion for colour and the way in which it can affect our emotions.
Colour can soothe, enchant or excite. And, as Hans demonstrates, it has the ability to render rooms cool and calming, dynamic and stimulating or moody and intriguing. As ever, Hans draws his inspiration from the natural world, exploring shades that range from the dazzling white of newly fallen snow to the fiery crimson heart of an unfurled poppy and the inky canopy of the midnight sky.
Divided into five sections – Dark, Pale, Natural, Soft and Bold – In the Mood for Colour will make you see colour in a completely different light.
