	Learn to use color in your home just like a professional interior designer with COLOR IN THE AMERICAN HOME. The book takes the fear out of using color by offering instructions on selecting color schemes, Design Secrets - "insider" tips - will give you the confidence to design with color. Unlike the European-inspired decorating books, COLOR appeals to an American aesthetic. America's many-layered history, diverse ethnic traditions, and lively regional differences offer a rich array of color choices. Over 200 gorgeous color photographs from across the country make the case for the "power of the palette" with colors that are the essence of the American Style.

Comments: A fun read
Ms Wills has a wonderful way with words. She has a great way of presenting the detailed "why and wherefore" of the color decorating decision process, yet never runs the danger of losing her readers. A feeling of involvement throughout, i.e. "We're in this together, let's have fun." A great book to hold as a reference, and one you can easily recommend to friends.

This book had me absorbed day after day examining the photo's and advice. It's the inspiration to overcome those white walls and neutral tones you see in every house you visit on the block. To decorate with a flare and have the confidence to use color, the book is a must-have.
