Our relationship with colour is emotional it affects our moods, senses and happiness, so colour choices are among the most important interior decisions you will make.

Seeing so much colour in my work, I wanted our home to feel calm, and this approach has helped keep my chameleon stylist tendencies under control. I hope what I've learned will help you too.
