new here & would like to learn how to choose colors/textures/etc
I'm a 50 year old single male and have had the house 18 years. I'm sure you'd all have thought it needed paint when I moved in. Well now I think it needs paint. I'm sure when all the walls/ceilings are painted that will make the carpet look bad, so that will happen also. Is there somewhere I can go (on the computer) or maybe some books to read that will teach me how to choose colors, which ones go together, etc. Maybe some accepted rules on what shapes go together, as in lighting fixtures/mirror shapes. At this point I'm open to All Input. Thankyou for your time and knowledge. dudevato in southern california
Hi, there are two websites that you could have a look at. one is www.mycolour.com.au which gives you different rooms and you can play around with colour and get an idea of what you like and what would look good together. these are australian paints but at least it gives you a look at colours. the other is www.603010.com.au which is a sort of quiz and is fun to do, to see what sort of colours you tend to go towards. brigitte dudevato <dudevato@...
