While I love the concept that Gueniau wrote about, adding more color into your home that examples feel pretty flat and the might have been the same house throughout the entire book. She use one theme or idea of coloring through the whole book. While I like color in my home, my home does not fit the style that is in the book. I am more modern, while all her pictures are a bit eclectic and doesn't give examples of other rooms. It was a great book and I understand where she was coming from, it would have been nice to see variety of styles.
