Wallpaper is back; so is the chandelier; and white goods aren't white any longer. A new generation of designers has restored spirit and vitality to our interiors, using vivid color, bold pattern and more than a touch of exuberance. After years of minimal, monochrome spaces, homes are once again sources of delight. New Decor provides a wealth of inspiration from which to create joyful interiors: fresh approaches to color and pattern; the latest in floor coverings and window treatments; new technology in lighting; mixing old and new. Palettes of colors and pattern books of wallpaper and fabric designs demonstrate the breadth of contemporary decorative choice; stunning examples reveal how the look comes together to create vibrant and original interiors. Alongside the visual treats, informative text and tips give clever ideas and practical advice on making your home lively but also harmonious - from using color, mixing and matching patterns and choosing fabric, to collecting and displaying objects and creating a personalized wall, window treatment or upholstery with digital prints. The book ends with an essential overview of decorating know-how, along with a comprehensive directory.

Focusing on the principal elements comprising a home--walls, floors, windows and doors, furniture, storage, and display--"Contemporary Decorating offers 14 projects that sample such possibilities as glass brick walls, concrete floors, and metal doors.
