Home Furnishing and Decorating

The Home Decorator's Bible offers five accessible sections dedicated to the key aspects of the home - each containing style guides, product directories, and detailed information on the inspiration, preparation, and tools and materials necessary for carrying out hundreds of decorating techniques: "Design and Detailing" is packed with ideas for choosing and interpreting a decorating style using light, color, texture, and pattern. "Walls" covers wall decoration, from basic painting, tiling, and wallpapering to the more adventurous techniques of painted faux finishes, wood paneling, and fabric. "Floors" guides the reader through the latest flooring choices available, from laying wood strip, corking, sheet vinyl, and terra-cotta tiles to creating dramatic effects with paint, such as checkerboarding and stone blocking. "Windows and Doors" focuses on the vast number of options for curtain and blind styles, and tells how to make them. Included are bold ideas for painting the woodwork on doors and window frames and suggestions for patterning and coloring glass. "Furniture and Furnishings" reveals a wealth of ideas to bring style to your home. Included are innovative decoupage and mosaic techniques, as well as ideas for using soft furnishings for beds, tables, and chairs - from choosing fabrics to final trimmings and fastenings. The Home Decorator's Bible is complete with a comprehensive, international listing of suppliers and manufacturers. Unmatched in its scope, this beautiful, practical, and inspirational book is the one volume you will need to carry out the decorating work in all areas of your home.

From information on essential colors and the use of different paints, to an unequaled step-by-step section on a vast range of decorating techniques, Kevin McCloud's Complete Book of Paint and Decorative Techniques is a definitive guide to the subject, showing how to decorate any home with originality and style. From the earthy hues of Italian farmhouses to the cool elegance of Scandinavian interiors, color has always played a crucial role in decorative schemes. In the first section of the book a unique cut-out color selector illustrates the eight essential earth colors on the decorator's palette and shows how to create and combine them successfully by clever intermixing of pigments. These essential colors, together with five secondary colors, are then used in the techniques throughout the book, so that all the stunning decorative effects can be easily recreated. The techniques section that follows contains instructions and step-by-step photographs for more than 35 glorious decorative effects, plus countless variations. Each technique contains a list of essential ingredients, step-by-step photographs and a close-up of the finished surface or object. All elements of the home are covered, from walls, floors, and woodwork to furnishings and even individual objects such as lamp bases and picture frames. As well as the basic technique, further swatches illustrate a range of alternative colorways. Many of the effects featured in the book can be equally at home in contemporary or historical, sophisticated or informal settings, and to illustrate this versatility further, inspirational photographs show the techniques in different settings.
