Designer treatments show how paint techniques can be used over a range of surfaces from walls and floors to furniture and fabrics, offering inspiration and revealing the exciting potential of inventive colour and pattern combinations. Illustrated directories for the full palette of paint types and their properties, for the range of effects achievable with them, are put into practice in imaginative projects. These take the reader through the practical details and show how techniques can be adapted and combined to create original schemes - Klimt-inspired gold swirls, fake-fur effect walls, or a mosaic floor.
