magical color

"What made me fall in love with color?"
There are many things but I will never forget the day I found a book at the Fashion Institute of Design and Merchandising Bookstore. Tney always had tons of books and all of them were wonderful. I have never been trustworthy in a bookstore unless of course you trust me to buy books. I love books.

There was this one book that called to me and it was by Donald Kaufman and Taffy Dahl and it was called simply - Color. They have such a wonderful approach to color. Many times you see the magazines and the colors scream at you or they may all work together but something seems amiss. I opened this book and I saw none of that. They believe that color should evolve naturally from the environment. Color should blend in with the environment. The colors are magical. The rooms are so cozy and comfortable. I looked at this book for months. It is what I aspire to in my rooms.
