ALL YOU NEED IS COLOUR

In interior design, colour is one of the most potent instruments to create mood and personality. Whether the palette aims at quiet harmony or full-blown colour contrast, a colourful home is always fun, uplifting and welcoming. Interior photographer Helenio Barbetta shows us the way, with 20 homes that stand out thanks to their purposeful use of colour. Author Kurt G. Stapelfeldt investigates how these interiors are shaped by their hues, and how colour choices reflect the personality of the inhabitants.  When used thoughtfully, colour transforms any space into a personal sanctum. From floor-to-ceiling colour to small bursts of colour, from dark classic blue to bright citrus yellow: All You Need is Colour shows the many ways in which we can use colour to liven up our living quarters.
