THE HARMONIOUS HOME

A holistic approach to creating a home using the colors, patterns, and textures found in the natural world, from the author of Living with Color and Living with Pattern. Hailed by Vogue for her “approachable patterns and textiles” Rebecca Atwood shares a new method for styling your interiors, one guided by nature- specifically landscapes that capture your imagination. As an artist, she has found that the details of a landscape helps make design accessible, and when decorating a home, it can even direct the decisions you make. Think of a place outside that contains a mood you want to bring into your home, such as the beach or a garden you saw on your travels. Identify the colors in its landscape and you can choose a room’s paint colors. Pick out its textures and you can decide what materials-rugs, wallpaper, upholstery fabric-to bring into the room. The Harmonious Home walks you through six different landscapes-Dunes, Ocean, Field, Forest, Garden, and City-and shows you how to pull together color and pattern combinations you might not have imagined on your own that evoke the feeling of the place without looking overly thematic.
