Monochrome

...as in the book, Monochrome, by Paula Rice Jackson. I thought I'd share some of my favorite photos from this quietly elegant book on one way to use color.

While I love color, especially how Mother Nature combines them, there is something soothing and exciting when you walk into a room and you just feel the balance and harmony of the subtle nuances of color.

The funny thing about using one color is that it takes just as much attention to detail as it does when using a range of colors.

The Venetian plaster walls in these photos are so...well, you just want to touch them! These monochrome walls are inspiring!
