I would love to start doing some distant design can anyone advise where to start?

I teach colour theory to art students and it's such a vast subject in terms of interiors. I read something once that said' how do you want a room to feel' and I think that's a good starting point. I recently bought a house that has some rooms that are a bit dark but it had a slightly seventies vibe. I have gone for this vibe throughout the house and used a limited palette based on what I already owned and the feel I was after. I picked out pale neutral colours that would work in light spaces, and related deeper ones that would work in darker spaces and a woodwork colour that could be used through out. The only difficult issue I find is not colour but temperature. Mixing cool neutrals and warm neutrals is difficult, light rooms can take anything but a north facing room with grey tiles and grey walls will not feel 'on trend' it will feel cold. So - make sure there is wood, and consider a palette that has some warmth (and that doesn't mean just reds and oranges but warm greens, warm greys etc). Also consider if the rooms are day rooms or night time rooms, that is important. Hope this helps.

Thank you that's an excellent guide. I have signed up for your newsletter. When you purchase power tools do you trust Amazons reviews or do you use a power tools review site like thespruce or toolinspector.com to decide?
