flipping through the august issue of one of my favorite american magazines {which i do not believe is at all available in the uk. trés triste}, suddenly this brilliant article, demonstrating the power of color to transform the very same space. j'adore the painting of the crown moulding and the ceilings & particularly appreciate that juxtaposed with each space is a beautifully arranged set of objects in the same palette that can also be used to bring the colors to a space {especially for those of us sans walls to paint in apartments}. which is your favorite palette? i've always been drawn to sunny yellow, but i also appreciate the calm of the blue & grey, the femininity of sage & light pink, & the festive, traditional qualities of the blue-green & burgundy.
the transformative power of color is often something we are often forced to imagine without comparison & i was just floored by the clear illustrations here. bravo, real simple! also, would you ever actually paint your ceiling and crown moulding? it's quite bold, non? may your late-summer saturday be perfectly lovely. xx hillary
