Decorating with Your Seasonal Colors
Smith and Gilbert
1985

In the 1980s, having your colors done, was quite the thing. I remember quite a few books and tv talk show segments devoted to figuring out color palettes that worked for your skin tones. People were either a Summer, Winter, Fall, or Spring. I remember trying to figure this out for myself and coming up with nothing. I still don’t really understand how this works.

This book takes this process to decorating your home. Do rooms exude a certain color preference or is just a palette of colors to try. Aside from the Spring room which looks like an Easter basket exploded, the other examples aren’t too bad.

Even though I haven’t heard this discussed since the late 1980s, it’s possible there might be some interest in the topic. This book can probably retire and the seasonal color folks of today would probably head right to the Internet.
