I love this very fun & cheerful book! It's definitely true to its title: it's a celebration of color, by a wonderful and maximalist designer who loves color. I haven't read any of the other Happy Chic books, so I can't speak to how this compares to those. As much as the book is very self-indulgent and the featured decor choices are not exactly for the average consumer, I feel that this book would have been so bland and ordinary if it were not written by Jonathan Adler. This book stands out (from a zillion other books that have covered this topic) because of his unique & irreverent perspective.

Adler out does himself again. Beautifully presented, interesting choreography,a scenic look inside the head and rooms of the man himself. Some obscure references that could be useful to adventurous designers. It's a play for more color; it invites you to play with color. A great browse for anyone that is addicted to drab. Burst out of your box but don't expect any heavy reading.

Great book but too similar to Happy Chic Accessorizing

I love Jonathan Adler. His positive energy and enthusiasm comes through in this book. I bought both this book and the accompanying Happy Chic Accessorizing. My only complaint is that both books use many of the same rooms and furniture just with different camera angles. Maybe Jonathan doesn't realize how popular he is. Didn't he know true fans would buy BOTH books? I want to see MORE of his ideas not less. That is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. But if you are only buying one, each is fun, inventive, chic and obviously Happy. I look forward to his next book.

Jonathan Adler has produced another easy book to help decorate in style and of course in color. This book, as his others, almost looks like a child's book, but it is full of advice for those who are afraid of using color in their decorating plans. For those who already have navy blue walls and red couches in our family room, it will just reassure us that we are on the right track...for those who need some help and hints and reassurance to be bold and brave...the chapters on blue, yellow, black and white, red, beige, orange, green and metallic- will guide the way to a brighter house and surroundings.
