Eye candy for color lovers!
Beautiful photography. There were plenty of color drenched photos for those of us who love color. The text was good for beginners who don’t know what they’re doing when it comes to color.

Not my style
Beautiful pictures. Just not my taste. Also, seems a little superficial on color science. Some people will like it, but not for me.

Love colour
I enjoyed this look through choosing and co-ordinating a colour palette for your home. The photos of actual rooms and houses were accompanied by a colour block to show which colours were used in which proportions, not just the objects or walls we tend to focus on, and we could see if adding a touch of yellow was a good mix for us or not.I enjoy seeing beach houses on holiday, or villas, in strong colours, but I would not want to live with that all year. As for anyone with a family member with autism or ADHD, I thought a section should be given to explain that garish patterns and strong colours can be too upsetting. We are told which are calming neutral colours. We should also be told that dark colours are depressing, that paint shades are graded by how much light they reflect, and that a dark or strong paint is very hard to remove, requiring many coats of pale paint.Looking through the book, I came away thinking that I am happy to wear jewel colours or pastels, but I would only want to paint my house in pastels and add jewel cushions and books. We can all choose our own preferences.I downloaded a copy from Net Galley. This is an unbiased review.

A visual delight
Love Color is a gorgeous book filled with ideas on choosing the right color combination and incorporating these colors in your home. There are so many color palettes to choose from, and Love Color includes tips that will boost the reader’s confidence in selecting their own color style when sprucing up their homes. It also offers tips on textures, patterns, lighting and choosing colors that can improve the reader’s mood and enhance their emotional well being.The photos in this book are stunning! The colors are rich and vibrant and I like the concept used in this book where each chapter is sorted by color, thus making it easy to find ideas. Each chapter starts with a brief overview of the color discussed and then proceeds to show different color palettes used for each interior. I’m seriously considering buying a paper copy of this book. If you’re looking for inspirations for your home, this book is for you.Thank you to Anna Starmer, Quarto Publishing Group - Ivy Press, and NetGalley for an ARC of this book in exchange for an honest review.

The impact of color on our lives
With the author's creative flair, splashes of vibrant colors permeated this book. It was offered that how we feel in our home is largely dependent upon the colors we find ourselves surrounded with. Anna Starmer suggests that we be mindful of what colors complement us best. There are no right or wrong colors to choose from. The colors that we come in contact with in our daily lives could very well hold positive or negative effects upon our emotions. Usually trial and error will determine what works best for us individually. Many of the Illustrated inspired crafts in this well-written book jump right off the pages. Resources with contact information were carefully listed in the back followed closely by an index. This is a must-have resource for the world of color that we live in.I offer my thanks to NetGalley and Quarto Publishing Group - Ivy Press for this digital edition in exchange for an unbiased review.

Cover scratched and dirty
The book itself is beautiful and an excellent table top read. Unfortunately, my book arrived dirty and title page is all scratched up. Disappointed with how this book must have been treated before/ during delivery. I regret buying off Amazon, should've tried to find it at at a book store.
