Here’s how to break into the world of color without breaking a sweat

‘I’ve been 40 years discovering that the queen of all colors was black.’ — Pierre-Auguste Renoir

Slather on some bold ceiling color for an instant — and eye-catching — transformation

Perk up that old claw-foot with a hit of paint that’s as bold or subtle as you please

Blue cabinetry, Orla Kiely wallpaper and a reimagined staircase are just the right touches for a young family

Try out a new hue with pillows, upholstery and a bold accent or two

Give a tedious task a boost by surrounding yourself with a bold, happy hue

Give summer heat the cold shoulder when you chill out behind one of these stylish shower curtains

See how a dab of this sunshiny color can bring warmth and cheer to a room

You almost don't need to clean when you wash your spaces with the refreshing colors of lemons, limes and oranges
