Average customer review:Product Description
Angela Wright explains exactly what colour is and how it works, discussing traditional ideas about its influence on behaviour and mood before going on to describe the discoveries she has made over the last twenty years. It shows you how to apply the theory of colour to yourself and your wardrobe, whatever your gender, race or colouring, and expands on applications in your home, your workplace and in commercial design. Personality types and their relationship with specific colours and tones are described fully. Quizzes and practical examples help you to work out your 'personal palette' and identify which colours are most supportive for you. The combination of practical advice and insight into the human condition is irresistible.

This is the best colour book ever!
I have read many books on colour by various authors. This is undoubtedly the best in my opinion.
Angela Wright is nothing less than brilliant in her understanding of colour and her skill in using it as well as her ability to pass her knowledge on to the reader.
If you love colour and are interested in the unconscious effects of colour then this book is for you.
I was originally interested only in my personal pallette ie which colours suited me to enhance my personal colouring (they turn out to be autumn colours).
However, the book covers colour in nature as well as colour at home, at work and in business.
I find it totally fascinating from start to finish and have read and re-read it and continue to dip into it whenever I have a colour query to be answered.
If you want to know the most supportive colour to use when you are bereaved (not black) or which colour to use for meditation or why NOT to use yellow in a certain room in the house then this book is for you.
You will love it.
This book changed my life!
I always had problem with sleepness nights, until I've read this book. I found out that I was a 'winter' charater, my previouse bed rooms has too much yellow in it, it made me hyperactive and stressed during the night. I slept painlessly for the first time after change the scheme to white and silver. I nerver looked back!
An exceptional book which you will keep going back to....
Have you ever wondered why you have a favorite colour, or why an advertsing campaign has effected you so much? Have you ever walked into an office and wanted to work there or buy their products? What about some of your friends homes - why do you just relax and chat away in some while always feeling its time to go in others....
Angela Wright takes us through both the theory and practical application like a breeze. Whether a novice or an expert you won't regret picking this one up.
Buy it....enough said!
