Riassunto:

Paint is one of the easiest and most creative ways to give your home an exciting new look, adding color and individual style to any room. Whether the desired look is soft colorwashes or cool stripes, elegant trompe l'oeil schemes or fantastic faux finishes such as marble or wood, The Complete Book of Paint provides the creative ideas, the techniques, and even the recipes for achieving truly professional results. For every conceivable surface - walls, floors, ceilings, furniture, fabrics, and metalwork - The Complete Book of Paint offers you everything you need to know before you even pick up a brush: what to buy, how to prepare and apply paint to a number of different surfaces, how to mix paints, and ideas for using color inside and outside the home. In addition, 20 step-by-step projects illustrate a variety of unique designs and useful techniques, each one presenting a dazzling array of colors, patterns, and textures.

Dalla quarta di copertina: ok to cover virtually every paint technique and every conceivable surface: walls, floors, wood furniture, and even upholstered fabrics and metalwork from a hot new designer. The book's 35 projects provide beautiful results and are also accessible to those with a less-than-practiced hand. 200 full-color photographs.
