Living with White

More about the book

"Living with White" celebrates living in a hot climate where the use of color is as intense as the heat. White is the backdrop while walls, floors, doors, and furniture painted in vibrant blues and greens, hot reds, magenta pinks, terracottas, and oranges create the drama and interest. Houses in hot climates from the Mediterranean to the Gulf Coast have been adapted to withstand the heat and chic, modern, uncluttered interiors create oases of cool and calm.
