All About Colour by Janice Lindsay

Janice Lindsay has always been passionate about colour. In this fascinating and idiosyncratic journey through its history, its meaning, and its effect on everyday life, Janice shares a lifetime of discoveries about why colour, something we think will be simple to use and understand, is so complex.

Join her on a journey that combines history, biology, and interior design with personal insights from years of helping others choose colour and get it right.

"Our colour destinations on this journey are historical, biological, and personal. Some are popular hot spots – red, blue, green, and yellow – and some are off the beaten track – wabi- sabi and why beauty is a little bit ugly. Some places you might never have gone to on your own and will never want to go back to again. Other places are where you might wish we had stayed longer. You will have to go back on your own and take them at your own pace. Every journey through colour is really an exploration of self, the positive feeling of a red jacket, the benefits to be had from a pleasing room, and an exploration of the nature of happiness."

Beware: after reading this book you will never look at colour the same way again.
