+FUNDAMENTAL CONDITIONS
+
+LIGHT, COLOR, FORM, PROPORTION
+AND DIMENSIONS
+
+
+Whatever is good in interior decoration is the result of consistent
+relationship between Light, Color, Form, Proportion and Dimensions. The
+choice of Color should be guided by the conditions of Light. The beauty
+of Form and the symmetry of Proportion can exist only by a balance with
+Dimensions.
+
+Therefore, apart from any knowledge of historic or period decoration,
+effective or successful work must observe the technical laws governing
+conditions.
+
+
+#LIGHT#
+
+1. The white light of the sun is compounded of an almost innumerable
+number of color elements, as shown by the phenomena of the rainbow or by
+experimenting with the prism. (See ¶ 7.) When a ray of sunshine passes
+through a glass prism it is decomposed or separated, and if the
+prismatic colors are received upon a white screen you will find on the
+spectrum among the colors generated a pure blue, a pure red and a pure
+yellow. These are the primary colors, and it is necessary when thinking
+color to bear these prismatic colors in mind as standards.
+
+2. Color is an internal sensation originating in the excitation of the
+optic nerve by a wave action which we call light.
+
+3. The theory of light, the wave theory, is based upon the assumption
+that throughout all space there is an infinitely thin medium called
+ether. Scientists differ as to what this may be, but its movements
+constitute light, a reflection from a luminous body.
+
+4. Everything which we see is visible because it either emits light,
+like a flame, or reflects light.
+
+5. A piece of black cloth upon a white plate reflects but a small
+proportion of the light. The plate reflects a large proportion. A piece
+of black velvet reflects less light than black cloth and gives the
+effect of absolute blackness, or an empty and dark space.
+
+6. In practical demonstrations the study of color will be confusing
+unless it is understood at the outstart that pure prismatic colors can
+seldom be found in manufactured pigments, hence any demonstration of the
+theory of color composition is usually unsatisfactory.
+
+7. The theory which brings out of a ray of sunshine the disunited
+prismatic colors carries with it the deduction that before separation
+these colors constitute white light; but it must be manifest to even the
+superficial reader that such colors are mere spectrum colors--vision
+colors--and any amalgamation of material or pigment colors, so far from
+producing white, produces almost black.
+
+8. The theory that red and yellow make orange, and that a red and blue
+make violet, is correct; but if one attempts to demonstrate the theory
+with pigments, one is confronted not only by the lack of standard
+manufactured colors but by impurities, adulterations and chemical
+reaction in the pigments. The adulteration may not be perceptible in one
+primary color, but it is manifest when that color is brought into action
+with another primary, for it is seldom that a pure secondary results.
+
+
+#COLOR NOMENCLATURE--HARMONIES#
+
+9. Color nomenclature includes primary, secondary and tertiary colors,
+and innumerable hues, shades and tints. All these colors bear relations
+to one another, either relations of analogy, or relations of contrast.
+(See ¶ 18 and ¶ 19.)
+
+The Circle Diagram I shows the manner in which the various colors are
+formed. (See also Diagram III.)
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM I]
+
+The third circle shows how slate, citrine and russet are made. For
+instance, slate is one part of violet and one part of green. Hence, a
+tertiary color is made of equal parts of two secondaries.
+
+The outer circle, buff, sage and plum, can be analyzed in the same way.
+
+This Diagram I is arranged to show not only component parts of a color,
+but the parts that properly harmonize.
+
+
+#CONTRASTS#
+
+10. In music it is an established fact that certain notes used in
+pleasing combination produce sounds we call harmonies. The moment that
+more than one note is struck, there is danger of discord, and when ten
+notes resound to the touch of the player, they must be the right notes,
+or they jar upon the sensibilities. In the use of color the same
+immutable law applies.
+
+11. In Circle Diagram II the letters RV mean reddish violet, being a
+violet having more red than blue in its composition. BV means bluish
+violet, being a violet having more blue than red in its composition. BG
+means bluish green, being a green having more blue than yellow in its
+composition. YG means yellow green, being a green having more yellow
+than blue in its composition. YO means yellowish orange, being an orange
+having more yellow than red in its composition. RO means reddish orange,
+being an orange having more red than yellow in its composition. Thus we
+may advance from red to yellow by graduations almost imperceptible, by
+the addition of yellow, to a reddish orange, and so on gradually to
+orange, continuing on to yellowish orange, finally revealing pure
+yellow.
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM II]
+
+12. The contrasting color at any stage may be determined by proceeding
+in a direct line across the circle: Red has for its contrasting color
+green; hence, reddish orange would have for its contrasting color a
+bluish green, for the simple reason that if red contrasts with green
+and orange contrasts with blue, the color between the red and the orange
+would contrast with the color between the green and the blue. Let us
+determine the contrasting color for crimson. Crimson is simply a red
+slightly tinged with blue. If red contrasts with green, a shade a little
+to the left of red slightly tinged with blue would contrast with a shade
+a little to the right of green slightly tinged with yellow. In other
+words, crimson, RV, would contrast with yellowish green, YG. Determine
+at what point of the circle any color that you have in mind will come,
+and the contrasting color would be immediately opposite.
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM III]
+
+13. The harmony of analogy consists of the harmony of related colors or
+tones of one color. (See ¶ 17.)
+
+14. The harmony of contrast consists of colors in no way related. As an
+example of the harmony of analogy, we would mention red and orange,
+because both of these colors have ingredients in common, red being one
+of the two component parts of orange. As an example of the harmony of
+contrast, we suggest red and green, because there is nothing in common
+between the two, red being a primary color, and green a secondary,
+composed of the other two primaries, yellow and blue. (See ¶ 17.)
+
+15. Green is called the complement of red. The complement of blue
+would be orange, because orange is formed by combining the remaining
+primaries, red and yellow; and the complement of yellow would be violet,
+because violet is composed of blue and red, the other primaries.
+
+16. In Diagram II we have arranged at opposite points the primaries 1,
+the secondaries 2, the tertiaries 3, the quaternaries 4.
+
+But Diagram III goes further into the subject.
+
+It is easy to understand the composition of secondaries, but it is not
+so easy to know the tertiaries and quaternaries. (See also Diagram I.)
+
+
+#CONTRAST ANALOGIES#
+
+17. Diagram III is of the utmost value to the colorist, illustrating not
+only the composition of color, but showing the origin of each secondary
+from the two primaries, the origin of each tertiary from two
+secondaries, and of each quaternary from two tertiaries. It shows by
+groupings the harmonies of analogy or related colors; also the harmonies
+of contrast: By moving on the board one color on one line to another
+color upon another line, like the moving of a knight in a game of chess,
+and confining the moves always to adjoining lines, like yellow to
+violet, violet to citrine, citrine to plum, plum to brown. Yellow and
+violet are true contrasts, the one color having nothing in common with
+the other. The citrine and the plum, however, are approximate contrasts.
+For greater convenience, we have numbered the contrasting colors A's and
+B's. Absolute contrast is where the two colors have nothing in common.
+For composition purposes, however, citrine and violet may be considered
+contrasts, or correctly speaking, contrast analogies. (See ¶ 19.)
+
+18. A harmony of contrast means the utilization of a primary color with
+its complementary, or a color in conjunction with another color in no
+degree related: a primary with a secondary. But when we soften these
+contrasting colors by the addition of white we have in the lighter tints
+a scale of chroma that is a form of analogy.
+
+19. All combinations of secondary and tertiary colors, while apparently
+harmonies of contrast (the tertiary being made by the composition of two
+secondaries), constitute, in fact, contrast analogies, because by
+analysis we find that all tertiaries possess color components occurring
+in the apparently contrasting secondaries. (See Diagram III.)
+
+20. The harmony of contrast, literally, can only occur in the pure
+primary colors juxtaposed to the pure secondary colors, for in no case
+does the color formed by the combination of the two primaries have
+anything in common with the third primary; while a tertiary composed of
+two secondaries invariably has qualities possessed by the third
+secondary.
+
+21. In a room which is small or dark, the light tints in harmonies of
+analogy are advisable.
+
+
+#PROPORTIONS#
+
+22. In the use of one color with another of contrasting character the
+question frequently arises, what proportion of each should be used to
+obtain the best effect? Illustrative color books show usually samples of
+color of the same size, leading one unconsciously to the error that
+contrasting colors should occupy the same surface dimensions.
+
+23. In every room there must be a prevailing or dominant color, and the
+use of a contrasting color must be limited to proportions which give
+simply a pleasing emphasis. Let us assume that a room has a deep frieze
+pronouncedly green. To treat the rest of the wall in red of a direct
+contrast would be ineffective.
+
+24. If a rule can be applied we would say that no strong normal color
+should be used in large surfaces. If we were dealing with pigments we
+would say that if one-sixth of a side-wall is devoted to a frieze in
+green, the balance of the wall space should be treated with the same
+amount of red, mixed with the same amount of gray.
+
+25. For a room that is small and well lighted the fresh tints are not
+as desirable as the gray shades or tertiaries in conjunction with
+secondaries.
+
+
+#COLOR IN LARGE OR SMALL ROOMS#
+
+26. For a large room well lighted, yellow, red and orange in delicate
+shades are not as desirable as orange, violet and russet in light
+shades. This rule, however, may be reversed for a large room that is
+dimly lighted.
+
+A superabundance of light gives an uncomfortable glare.
+
+27. One may mechanically obtain harmony of analogy in proper proportions
+for the treatment of a room or a design by following the guidance of
+Diagram I. It will be noted in this diagram that the inner circle is
+blue, red and yellow, the primary colors.
+
+The second circle is composed of the secondaries; the third circle, the
+tertiaries, and the outer circle, the quaternaries.
+
+There is a nice distinction in the combination of primaries for the
+formation of secondaries, and exact proportions are quite necessary.
+
+An orange, for instance, would be off shade if it did not consist of
+half red and half yellow, but in the making of the quaternaries, which
+are, at best, gray shades, exact proportions are not necessary.
+
+Nevertheless, in Diagram I we have observed exact proportions in order
+to make our demonstration clear.
+
+The harmony of analogy is the combination of colors related, but the
+relationship must be displayed in proportions consistent with the origin
+of each and every color used.
+
+Let us assume that the prevailing note in a room, in either the
+side-wall or floor, is sage.
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM IA]
+
+We can tell by drawing lines from the center of Diagram I to the
+extremities of the space marked sage that there is a little blue and a
+little yellow, some green and slate and citrine used in the composition
+of sage, and hence the use of these colors constitutes the harmony of
+relationship or analogy.
+
+
+#COLOR PROPORTIONS#
+
+28. But to arrive at proportions we must reduce the circular table to a
+geometrical table. We must straighten out the lines so that the exact
+proportions are apparent. We need not confuse the reader by mathematics,
+but to establish our theory we produce the Diagram IA, and it will be
+here seen that the relative proportions existing in the segments of the
+circles have been observed in the triangles.
+
+Thus we have thirty-two right-angled triangles.
+
+Sage occupies fourteen-thirty-seconds of the entire composition; slate
+occupies five-thirty-seconds; citrine, five-thirty-seconds; green,
+six-thirty-seconds; blue, one-thirty-second; yellow, one-thirty-second;
+and these colors, to observe the proper harmony of analogy in a room,
+should be used in the proportions above indicated.
+
+Sage should be in the preponderance; citrine and slate should occupy
+nearly one-sixth of the entire composition, green about one-fifth, and
+the whole should be picked out with touches of sharp blue and sharp
+yellow, representing each one-thirty-second.
+
+Let us take, for instance, a room that is in white woodwork, and apply
+the sage to the walls and the slate to the floor, and lighten the sage
+with citrine and lighten the slate with violet, and intersperse orange
+and green in a way permitted by the proportions at our command. When the
+work is completed we find a harmony of analogy which can be then
+relieved by touches of the primitive colors, blue and yellow, in the
+proportions shown.
+
+29. Good examples of contrast color effects may be found in the
+following series of combinations:

+
+30. We do not wish to be understood as stating that the work of the
+colorist is solely mechanical; but we would emphasize that the
+influences of color are very largely the result of studied proportions.
+The basis upon which one operates must be soundly constructed upon the
+theory of scale, and scale is mechanically determined. If red is
+lightened by the addition of white, or darkened by the addition of
+black, it is removed to another scale, and can only harmonize by
+contrast with its complement by adding to green the same amount of white
+or black that has changed the character of the red, and this should be
+mathematically accurate.
+
+31. To place white by the side of a color heightens or intensifies the
+tone of that color. To put black beside a color has the opposite effect.
+It weakens the color. Every woman looks better in white, hence white is
+the universal wedding gown, the universal party dress for children, and,
+wherever practical, the universal Summer dress for adults as well. White
+is worn universally by men and women next to the face, in collars or in
+neckwear, and the reason for it is that the contiguous white intensifies
+whatever color they may possess. Black, on the other hand, lessens the
+color or lowers its tone.
+
+32. Gray is a medium between the two. While it renders an adjacent color
+less brilliant, it takes to itself at the same time a tint that is a
+complement of that adjacent color. In other words, gray by the side of
+green appears faintly pinkish.
+
+33. Black is always desirable as an associate with luminous colors.
+Black does not associate as well with two colors, one of which is
+luminous and the other sombre, as when associated with two luminous
+colors.

+
+ ORANGE GREEN GREEN YELLOW
+ WHITE WHITE WHITE WHITE
+ VIOLET BLUE VIOLET VIOLET
+
+ _The violet being bluish, the green yellowish._
+
+
+#ROOM COMBINATIONS#
+
+34. The harmony of analogy is a subject that is little understood. It
+may be color sequence, progression, development or succession.
+
+ [Illustration: Showing Four-Color Combinations.
+ DIAGRAM IV and DIAGRAM V]
+
+ [Illustration: #SEQUENCE OF HARMONIES#
+ DIAGRAM VI
+ As these twenty-one sections are arranged, one has the layout for a
+ suite of seven rooms; following the top line across in a light scale,
+ the harmony is complete; following the center line across in a normal,
+ the harmony is complete; so also with the bottom line in a lower scale.
+ Follow the colors diagonally and you find they are repeats, or very
+ close to repeats--red, russet, red, for instance; violet, violet,
+ violet; blue, slate, blue; green, green, green; yellow, citrine, yellow;
+ orange, orange, orange. To the colorist the combinations here suggested
+ are full of inspiration.]
+
+Thus we may combine red, green and blue by starting with crimson and
+maintaining the following sequence: Crimson, red, scarlet, orange,
+yellow, greenish yellow, green, bluish green, blue, violet, and with
+added red get back to crimson.
+
+A room or a series of rooms may run to all colors and be still a harmony
+of analogy if the sequence or succession is gradual.
+
+35. No more delightful harmonies can be imagined than those provided by
+nature. One may start with the brown of the earth and run into several
+shades of green, and from that touch upon yellow, and from yellow to
+orange, and from orange to red, and red to violet, and violet to the
+blue of the sky. Or one may follow the colorings and the proportion of
+colorings in flora and never go astray. (See ¶ 22.)
+
+36. In the application of color to the home nothing is more pleasing
+than the harmony of sequence; the coloring of all rooms must be in
+sympathy with contiguous rooms. (Diagram VII.) (See ¶ 34.)
+
+37. All rooms are subject to the influence of a north or a south light,
+or much or little light, and the colorings must be considered
+accordingly. The ceiling and the upper parts of a wall require more pale
+colors where more light is needed. On the floor, however, where the
+greatest light falls, a little black may be added to soften the tone.
+
+38. Red and green are sharply contrasting colors; violet and yellow and
+blue and orange sharply contrast, and while their combinations may be
+used in adjoining rooms, it will be seen that in Diagram IV these
+contrasting tones are not in contact, but by their arrangement form
+analogies of contrast combinations.
+
+39. Yellow, orange, red, violet, blue and green are related; orange,
+russet, violet, slate, green and citrine are related; red, violet, blue,
+green, yellow and orange are related. Viewing the ceilings, the
+side-walls or the floor, there is the harmony of progression that we
+observe in the tinting of a flower. Viewed collectively the harmony is
+the same.
+
+40. To illustrate further our point we would take the ceiling line. We
+start with yellow, a primary color; orange possesses yellow; orange
+likewise possesses red, the adjoining color; violet possesses red, and
+it likewise possesses blue. On the side-wall, russet possesses orange,
+and it also possesses violet; it is the tertiary color made of these two
+secondaries. Slate is made of green and violet, and is thus also related
+to citrine.
+
+We do not wish it understood that these colors are to be applied flat,
+but simply in the predominating expression. (See ¶ 27.)
+
+41. The value of the diagram is obvious when one considers that in no
+particular is there a break in the sequence; but if we wish a harmony of
+analogy in a room, or a harmony of related parts, and wish the adjoining
+room to be in absolute contrast, we simply adopt the red, violet and
+blue for one room, and the green, citrine and orange for another; or the
+orange, russet and violet for one room, and the blue, green and yellow
+for the other. If, however, the sequence of color is desirable where we
+move from one apartment to another, and the eye is pleased by a gradual
+changing color, we can adopt any of these combinations in the order as
+presented.
+
+42. A vital point in the use of color, regarded usually with
+indifference or totally misunderstood, is the Unity of Composition to be
+preserved in the treatment of a series of _floors_ in a house; for on
+each floor of a house the conditions of light vary. As we ascend the
+stairs we find each floor requires an altered treatment, because of the
+added light given from the skylight. (See ¶ 37.) Moreover, in the
+arrangement of a floor the relation of one room to another is frequently
+so influential that no one room should be treated without due
+consideration to the adjacent apartment. (See Diagram VIII.)
+
+Too frequently the whole question of color is dismissed when the matter
+of north or south exposure is discovered, but the north room on the
+lower floor of a house is by no means so well lighted as the north room
+of the fourth or fifth floor, and the scale of color which would lend
+warmth to such a room would be weak in a more exposed apartment.
+(See ¶ 30.)
+
+43. Where the artist has but one room to consider there is little scope
+for his application of color knowledge. He must frequently compromise to
+meet the conditions. But presuming that he must treat a floor
+through, he should adopt a Unity which will apply harmoniously to all
+the rooms and hallways.
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM VII]
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM VIII]
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM IX For Key to Numbers see Diagram VII.]
+
+
+#CONTIGUOUS HARMONIES#
+
+44. For the lower floor he must arrange his colors so that while they
+moderate the direct glare of a sunny exposure or brighten the
+cheerlessness of a north light, they will also form a composition that
+pleases when seen from a point of common observation.
+
+45. On the upper floors the scale of color should be gradually softened,
+for the yellow or ivory tints that are pleasing on the first floor would
+be harsh and glaring where there is greater light. Exterior conditions
+must be borne always in mind.
+
+46. Recalling that the primary colors are yellow, red and blue, and that
+the secondary colors are orange, violet and green, and that the tertiary
+colors are russet, slate and citrine, all with many tints and shades,
+let us arrange a series of five rooms seriatim, so treating ceiling,
+side-wall and floor (See Diagram IX) that in passing from one room to
+another they will be in sequence of color harmony--each complete from
+floor to ceiling and all in harmony along the ceiling lines, the wall
+lines and the floor lines.
+
+Let us take the suite of rooms suggested in Diagram IX. We must consider
+desirable colorings in all of the rooms to be treated, and so far as
+possible adjust the sequence of treatments, as shown in Diagram VIII, so
+that the approach to each room will be in harmonious order as viewed
+from any room. We have five rooms to treat. The library happens to be
+on the north side, hence we wish to treat it in colorings that supply
+the deficiency of sunshine. The hallway is rather dark. The living-room
+has only one window, and requires more warmth of color than the
+billiard-room and dining-room, which being sunshiny can be treated in
+more sombre tones. Therefore we select combination 6 for the hallway.
+The one room on the right we treat in No. 1. The rooms on the left we
+treat in Nos. 5, 4 and 3. We have, therefore, as we stand in room No. 6,
+treated in green, citrine and orange, a view to the right of yellow,
+orange and red, which is in harmonious juxtaposition. To the left we
+have a glimpse of rooms, the floors of which adjoining the orange floor
+of the entrance hall, are yellow, green and blue. The wall spaces
+adjoining the citrine wall space of the hall treatment are green, slate
+and violet. The frieze lines adjoining the green of the hall treatment
+are blue, violet and red--all juxtaposed harmonies. The floors of all
+rooms are of one deep scale; the walls lighter scale; the friezes and
+ceiling still lighter. If viewed from room 4 the harmonies are equally
+effective.
+
+47. Diagram VII is useful for many reasons. In its present shape it
+shows the harmonies of analogy or related parts. To arrange harmonies of
+contrast, combine the colors of the first room with the fourth room, the
+colors of the second room with the fifth room, the colors of the third
+room with the sixth room. (See ¶ 37.)
+
+
+#HARMONIES FOR THE ROOM#
+
+48. The floor should usually enter into the color scheme as the low
+note in the scale. It is the background for the furniture, and should be
+deeper than the dado or wainscoting. The wood trims--baseboard, doors,
+plate-rails, and everything of that character, except the picture
+molding--should be like the woodwork of the furniture. This brings the
+woodwork into contrast with the wainscoting (unless the wainscoting be
+wood) and into harmony with the side-walls, although the degree of
+harmony is far removed. Thus, if the woodwork of the furniture is
+mahogany, the wainscoting green, the side-walls pink and gray, we would
+find the window trims of mahogany, or imitation mahogany, in harmony
+with the side-walls. (See ¶ 51 and ¶ 52.)
+
+49. I would lay down the rule that the wood trims of a room should
+harmonize by analogy with the side-walls where such walls are provided
+with a contrasting wainscoting; but if there is no wainscoting, or the
+wainscoting be also of wood, then the wood trims and furniture contrast
+with the side-wall.
+
+Substitute green side-wall for the pink, ¶ 48.
+
+White woodwork is always permissible. Study Diagram VI on page 22.
+
+50. The picture molding may harmonize with the ceiling. Indeed, a white
+picture molding frequently is better than one matching the general
+woodwork (See ¶ 37); a dark upper molding, moreover, reduces the
+apparent size of a room.
+
+51. Where black furniture is used, or gold furniture, it will of course
+be understood that the wood trims shall not be black or gold; but so
+long as they are in harmony, that will be sufficient. White wood trims
+are nearly always permissible as a substitute for colored wood.
+
+52. Tones of gray with soft colorings (See ¶ 32), are always safe.
+
+To summarize (Note ¶ 37):
+
+53. In harmonies of contrast the side-walls, the furniture woodwork,
+wood trimming, cove, ceiling and the curtains should be related.
+
+54. The rugs, frieze, wainscoting or dado, furniture upholsterings and
+the curtain borders should be related. (See ¶ 49.)
+
+55. If the curtains have no borders, then the curtains contrast with the
+wood trims.
+
+56. Remember always cove and ceiling should be the palest tint of the
+side-wall color, and the rug should be of the deepest contrast to the
+side-wall, in harmony with the wainscoting, if there is a wainscoting.
+Remember, also, that the colors here prescribed are never to be of the
+same scale. The rug or carpet is of the deepest, and the ceiling of the
+palest. While certain colors are to contrast, they are not to contrast
+in the same scale. (See ¶ 37 and ¶ 40.)
+
+57. If we find that the tone of color of the wainscoting, for instance,
+is a bluish green, the side-wall should be of a reddish orange; for the
+reason that if green contrasts with red, and if blue contrasts with
+orange, a bluish green would contrast with a reddish orange.
+
+58. Exception to ¶ 56. Only large or well-proportioned rooms can stand
+the diminishing or reduction effects of contrast. In low ceiling rooms,
+leave out the contrasting frieze, and let border, cornice and ceiling be
+in receding colors. (See ¶ 89.)
+
+59. We all know that a northern exposure gives a room a deficiency of
+sunlight, and the wall treatment should supply this. A southern room, on
+the other hand, gives so much sunlight that counteracting wall
+treatments in cold color are permissible.
+
+60. In the color treatment of a room one has either to adopt a harmony
+of analogy or a harmony of contrast, and this is a matter which depends
+upon so many conditions that it should be carefully considered.
+(See ¶ 88 and ¶ 89.) Where a plate-rail is used one must remember that a
+great deal of color may be furnished by the bric-à-brac, and that the wall
+behind this plate-rail should be of a color in contrast to the contents
+of the plate-rail.
+
+61. When we follow a scheme of _contrast_ the borders should be usually
+complements, and if the reader has studied our diagram he will very
+readily understand how to determine the exact complementary color.
+
+
+#WALL PROPORTIONS#
+
+62. The wainscoting or dado should be the same as the top border or
+frieze, but of a darker tone. The intermixture of white or black is
+always permissible; thus a paper as a side-wall might have as its
+frieze the complementary coloring with more white, while the wainscoting
+or dado should be the complementary with black added.
+
+63. The cornice should be lighter than the border, and its members may
+show several tints, with the ceiling lighter still. (See ¶ 92.)
+
+64. As a rule the color of the chair coverings should be the
+complementary of the side-walls, and the color of the furniture frames
+should be complementary to the wainscoting; so by following this rule we
+find that the wainscoting serves as a contrasting background to the
+chair frame.
+
+65. Let us imagine a room wherein the side-walls are of a reddish tint;
+the wainscoting, being a complementary color, is of a greenish cast. The
+furniture is of mahogany, and in contrast to the wainscoting, while the
+chair covering, being greenish in contrast to the chair frame, is also
+in contrast to the side-wall. Here we have, then, the color relations of
+side-wall, wainscoting, furniture-frames and covering; but it is
+undesirable that these tones should be in the same scale. (See ¶ 62 and
+¶ 92, also tables pages 42 and 43.)

+
+#ROOM PROPORTIONS#
+
+66. In small rooms harmonies of contrast are unsafe, because contrasts
+must involve advancing colors, which make a room look smaller. (See ¶ 86
+and ¶ 90.) Harmonies of analogy are far better; and as frieze,
+wainscoting and dado are not recommended in the small room, we suggest
+that the furniture woodwork and the wood trims should be of one color
+note, unless it is desired that the wood trims should be white; and that
+the side-walls, curtains and chair upholsterings should be of a note in
+some degree related and of receding color, picked out with just a touch
+of contrasting color. (See ¶ 90 and ¶ 91.)
+
+This contrasting color may be introduced in the accessories, the
+pictures, bric-à-brac, flowers (natural or artificial) or books.
+
+ [Illustration: "... pronounced patterns must balance," etc.

+
+#DECORATIVE PROPORTIONS#
+
+(SEE CHART)
+
+On the preceding pages we present a quick-reference chart of rules that
+should be followed in furnishing rooms under various conditions of Light
+and Proportion.
+
+ 67. A large room with high ceiling and well lighted.
+ 68. A large room with low ceiling and well lighted.
+ 69. A large room with high ceiling and poorly lighted.
+ 70. A large room with low ceiling and poorly lighted.
+ 71. A small room with high ceiling and well lighted.
+ 72. A small room with low ceiling and well lighted.
+ 73. A small room with high ceiling and poorly lighted.
+ 74. A small room with low ceiling and poorly lighted.
+
+There are two considerations to bear uppermost in mind: Proportions
+affected by Color and Proportions affected by Design.
+
+75. It is easily understood that a large room may be safely furnished
+with large pieces of furniture, but where there is a wide expanse of
+floor space care must be exercised to secure broken heights: In a
+high-ceilinged room the furniture must not be all high; in a
+low-ceilinged room the furniture must not be all low.
+
+Avoid straight line effects in the furniture heights and in the
+wall-paper, which, if in pronounced patterns, must balance in
+conspicuous wall members and show the broken junctures or bad matchings
+in inconspicuous or obscure corners.
+
+
+#COLORS THAT GIVE SIZE TO A ROOM#
+
+76. The wall and fabric designs must be of a size proportionate to the
+size of the room. The color treatment of a well-lighted room must be
+subdued to offset the glare of the natural illumination, and the natural
+illumination be subdued to soften the color treatment; glare must be
+avoided.
+
+77. Advancing colors are colors which contain red or yellow in the
+ascendancy; _receding_ colors are those which contain blue in the
+ascendancy. Green in its purity, being half yellow and half blue, is
+almost neutral. In the same way violet, being made up of half red and
+half blue, is theoretically neutral, although the blue tone is usually
+more assertive than the red and makes the color recede. Any color or hue
+possesses advancing or receding qualities according to the ascendancy of
+red, blue or yellow in its composition.
+
+78. Orange is an advancing color; so also is violet in the shades
+approaching red; green in the shades approaching yellow.
+
+79. Of the tertiary colors russet is an advancing color, because while
+it contains some blue in the violet of its composition, it contains a
+preponderance of red and orange.
+
+
+#ADVANCING AND RECEDING COLORS#
+
+80. Citrine is an advancing color, because while it contains some blue
+in the green of its composition, it contains a preponderance of yellow
+and orange; slate is a receding color, because while it contains some
+yellow in the green of its composition, it contains a preponderance of
+blue; in the same way plum may be regarded as an advancing color,
+because of its preponderance of red; buff is an advancing color, because
+of its preponderance of yellow; sage is a receding color, because of its
+preponderance of blue.
+
+81. The carpet should always be in the low tone, and in a small room a
+bordered carpet should be always tabooed. So also should one avoid the
+use of one rug so placed that a border of woodwork shows around it,
+because this gives the border effect and makes a small floor space look
+still smaller. Better use small rugs. The use of a lot of narrow rugs
+lengthwise along a narrow room will make the room look all the narrower,
+but the same rugs placed crosswise would make a room look wider.
+
+The diagrams which we have prepared will give even the man who
+understands it all a quicker grasp of the points involved.
+
+82. Width effect and distance effect are obtained best by arranging the
+smaller pieces at the farthest points.
+
+83. It is the same with pictures. While a room should be balanced, and
+the pictures placed in a manner to give this result, it is best, where
+possible, to keep the larger pictures, larger effects, always near the
+eye. The crowding of large pieces at the farthest point diminishes the
+apparent size of the room.
+
+
+#FLOOR TREATMENTS#
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+84. Continuous design in ceiling or carpet weakens the size effect;
+hence rugs which break the continuity by being laid across the room
+instead of lengthwise are preferable. (See Diagrams and ¶ 81.)
+
+85. It is a safe rule to do a small or narrow room in harmonies of
+analogy or related colors, colors of a light tone and of receding
+character. Apart from any effect which color may possess decoratively or
+pictorially, its value cannot be overestimated in its application to the
+laws of proportion.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+86. Borders may be safely used on the wall or on the carpet of any large
+room with high ceiling, but wall friezes should be avoided where the
+ceilings are low, for they foreshorten the height effect.
+
+87. We would avoid borders on the floor of a small room to make it look
+larger, and we would use wide borders in a large room with a low ceiling
+so that the floor may be foreshortened.
+
+88. One may utilize in a large, poorly lighted room masses of luminous
+colors to give artificial sunlight to the room deficient therein, but in
+the small, poorly lighted room this treatment should be avoided.

+ * * * * *
+
+It is impossible to tabulate directions for using color without an
+understanding of the conditions, the size, light and height of a room.
+(See pages 34 and 35.) The above tables relate only to normal
+conditions.
+
+White woodwork can be used effectively in the trims of a room and give
+greater light and size. The darker the wood trims the smaller the room
+appears. We have left out of consideration the window treatments which,
+as a rule, should be of white lace, perhaps overdraped in colored
+stuffs. If the room is poorly lighted, it is obviously undesirable to
+cut off any light from the window by even laces; the curtains,
+therefore, in a poorly lighted room should be draped back. Colored
+laces, grenadines or madras stuffs are frequently used to give period
+style or color tone, and wherever they are used, such curtains should
+harmonize with the wall. So also with the overdraperies to the lace
+curtains.
+
+89. Luminous or advancing colors make a small room look all the smaller;
+therefore in small rooms we suggest the use of white woodwork, and in
+the color treatment we would avoid contrasts, but would suggest
+harmonies of analogy in receding colors, soft grays, greens and blues.
+These are not luminous colors and will make a small room look the
+larger, while the white will give light effects, and if the room appears
+a trifle somber it can be easily relieved by the bright colors of the
+bric-à-brac and by a touch of gold here and there on the wall. (See ¶ 66
+and ¶ 85.)
+
+90. There are cases where a small room has a northern exposure, and
+while apparently expedient to treat such a room in warm colors to supply
+the deficiency of sunlight, such a course would make a room look
+smaller.
+
+91. Under the circumstances treat the room in light hues, gray
+preferred, and get the deficiency of sunlight through some warm isolated
+details and in the lace curtains.
+
+
+#THE WALL THE KEYNOTE COLOR#
+
+92. Our theory of color as applied to room furnishings provides always
+that the side-wall is the keynote and this keynote is usually fixed for
+practical reasons in sympathy with the furniture; above to the ceiling's
+center the note ascends and below to the floor center it descends; it
+goes into tints as it ascends and into deeper shades of gray and brown
+as it descends.
+
+If, for instance, blue is the keynote, by adding black you have drabs,
+slates or grays for the floor, while if the keynote be red you have
+écrus and browns for the floor light or gray, according to the color
+scale of the keynote.
+
+93. It must be understood that in designating a color we do not mean
+that it shall be solid or pure, but merely that it prevails. (See ¶ 29.)
+
+A side-wall may be treated in several colors, but as long as orange
+prevails, it follows the conditions of the combination, pages 42 and
+43. The factors included in the line designated A are all of one color
+family. The factors indicated by B are also family colors. It will be
+seen that the A or B colors taken by themselves form HARMONIES OF
+ANALOGY; it is only by combining the A's with the B's that we have
+HARMONIES OF CONTRAST.
+
+If a room is to be done in harmonies of analogy, use the A colors alone
+or the B colors alone, but never A and B together.
+
+
+#THE PSYCHOLOGY OF COLOR#
+
+94. Whatever may be the charm conveyed by design there is a reason for
+it. We can analyze it.
+
+It has an inherent quality of beauty or historic interest, and there is
+a definite and distinct reason for our liking it.
+
+But the effect of color is exciting or disturbing, tranquilizing or
+pleasing, inexplicable and inexpressible, affecting the senses like an
+appeal to the passions or the appetite. One might as well explain the
+love of sport, literature, art or vice. The sense of color is a nerve
+sense, and this sense varies in the individual. We know that colors
+which are strongest in direct sun rays, like red and orange, arouse the
+normal senses, while the blues and violets quiet.
+
+Nature provides vast fields of green because favorable in its effects
+upon humanity. Experiments prove that men of extreme sensibility exposed
+to the influences of red light finally show excitement which gives
+muscular development fifty per cent. in excess of the power possessed by
+the same subject when exposed for the same period under the influences
+of blue light.
+
+
+#TO DETERMINE THE COLOR SENSE#
+
+Color, like music, while subjected to positive rules of harmony, appeals
+to natures according to the responsiveness of their nerve sense, and the
+practical decorator in dealing with a customer should discover at the
+outstart the character of that nerve sense. Some natures respond to the
+normal colors, barbaric colors. Some respond to the softer tints and are
+disturbed by the sharper tones. A dulled sense requires sharp contrasts;
+a quickened sense is satisfied with the soft gray tones. Apart from any
+question of propriety or environment the individual taste for color must
+be determined before the individual taste can be pleased.
+
+A demonstration of four examples in color may serve the purpose of
+determining one's color sense.
+
+First. Combinations of normal primary and secondary colors, (_a_)
+arranged in contrasts, (_b_) in analogies.
+
+Second. Combinations of tones of the above colors, (_a_) arranged in
+contrasts, (_b_) in analogies.
+
+Third. Combinations of tints of the above colors, (_a_) arranged in
+contrasts, (_b_) in analogies.
+
+Fourth. Combinations of the gray (tertiary) tones of the above colors,
+(_a_) arranged in contrasts, (_b_) in analogies.
+
+95. Do not allow your personal color-sympathies to dominate your work.
+All colors have their usefulness, for there are occasions when it is
+proper they should be used, apart from any question of harmony; one
+must consider always the uses of colors, the lights, and the purpose of
+the room under treatment.
+
+96. Nature gives to the dark forest depths great brilliancy of
+floriculture, and dark-skinned people indulge unconsciously the same
+bright scale of color. But as we come out of the forest and advance in
+civilization we use barbaric colorings more discriminately.
+
+97. We employ gold, orange or yellow for the north room not for inherent
+beauty, but for the sense of warmth which they convey to an atmosphere
+chilled by the absence of sunlight. We employ receding colors in a small
+room that the room may look larger. We employ cold colors in a sunny
+room, especially in the summer home, for reasons psychological rather
+than æsthetic.
+
+
+#PERIOD USES OF COLOR#
+
+98. If our furniture is white and gold, it is clearly evident that the
+colorings of a room should be soft and harmonious. If we adopt the dark
+teakwood of India or the deep brown of Flanders, our color scheme again
+changes. The preponderance of white in Colonial rooms was due to
+architectural conditions. White illuminates; and in the days when our
+ceilings were no higher than seven and a half feet, and our windows were
+small, the room needed an artificial light, and white supplied this.
+
+99. In furnishing an Empire room, the decorators have, little by little,
+led themselves to believe that what is known as Empire green is a
+distinct shade of green. On the contrary, green was used in the period
+of the Empire simply because it was in pleasing contrast with the
+mahogany and brass so much used. If the mahogany is dark, a dark green
+is desirable; if light, a light green.
+
+100. Egyptian decoration was full of gold and brilliant coloring, and a
+popular form of combination was the triad form:
+
+ Black, yellow and red.
+ Red, blue and white.
+ Dark blue, light blue and white.
+ Cream color, blue and black.
+ Dark red, medium yellow and blue.
+
+101. The Greek decorators, who painted in fresco, used white, red, blue,
+yellow and black. Natural marbles were much used in green and red and
+alabaster, and bronze, gold and silver.
+
+We see the flat colors of the Greek, Etruscan and Pompeiian age and we
+imagine they are typical of the period, but we must consider that the
+examples of that period which we now possess are faded and emasculated,
+and that the more authentic the example, the more aged it is, and hence
+the more weakened in color character.
+
+The Greeks loved color, and their embroideries were in gold and blue and
+Tyrian purple.
+
+Roman coloring was but a continuance of the Greek, characterized by dark
+and rich backgrounds, which were frequently black, red or deep yellow
+and dark blue, on which figures and landscapes, or animals, or groups
+from still life, were executed in bright colorings of powerful
+contrasts. Black and white were used, and later, when the Byzantine
+artists and craftsmen found their way to Western Italy, they spread this
+love of bold coloring, so that at the dawn of the Renaissance we find a
+return to the Greek and Roman coloring, which, however, was modified in
+England, Germany and Flanders, according to temperamental conditions.
+
+102. We find, for instance, some forms of Florentine decoration, full of
+yellow, red-yellow, blue-greens and light slate blues. Botticelli used
+whites, creams, reds and citrine, with umber tones heightened by gold,
+and if we examine carefully the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Century
+Italian brocades which are preserved in the museums, we discover a great
+preponderance of yellow-green as an ornament on dark violet, or light
+olive green on dark blue, or dull orange on crimson brown.
+
+In some of the richest early Italian fabrics we find:
+
+ Purple and sage-green ornaments on indigo ground; outlines in gold.
+
+ Dull crimson, pale blue and chrome yellow ornaments on dark gray
+ ground.
+
+ Pale yellow-green ornaments on deep amber ground.
+
+ Dark blue-green and light greenish-yellow ornaments on deep crimson
+ ground.
+
+ Pale greenish-blue ornaments on dark gray-blue ground, with white
+ and gold picked out in small quantities.
+
+ Emerald green and dull orange ornaments on dark gray-green ground
+ outlined in gold.
+
+103. The French Renaissance takes inspiration from the Roman and Greek.
+
+The Louis XIV is a development of the Renaissance, with a conspicuous
+use of gold.
+
+The Louis XV is an elaboration along the same lines.
+
+The Louis XVI is a simplification and a return to the classic.
+
+The Georgian is largely Roman and Pompeiian.
+
+104. The Adam style was taken directly from the Pompeiian, but in most
+cases, instead of having the Pompeiian solid color background with
+design lightly executed, the background is in the light color, and the
+design dark. To follow strictly the Pompeiian palace style would be too
+garish in our modern circumscribed environment.
+
+105. It is a nice psychological problem to decorate the house in a way
+to give true balance to the æsthetic sense. No matter how great one's
+admiration for a thing, there is always a final point of satiety at
+which the desire needs rest or balance. A woman may love flowers, for
+example, but in the season of flowers, when all nature supplies an
+over-abundance, the visual sense becomes satiated, and the house
+interior that is furnished in cool tints and two-tones gives positive
+relief.
+
+106. On the other hand, floral decorations in the home are the balance
+needed to the mind that craves them during the Winter period when there
+is a lack of color without.
+
+
+ [Illustration: Compare perpendicular and horizontal lines: The angles
+ and curves which enclose them change their relative equality.]
+
+ * * * * *
+
+#ILLUSION EFFECT AND EXPRESSION IN THE USE OF LINES#
+
+107. We very often notice a room which has been carefully carried out
+but is utterly lacking in charm. The color seems right, and, considered
+in detail, the furniture and the furnishings are appropriate, but the
+room lacks effectiveness.
+
+It is uninteresting.
+
+It is like a doll face that is, perhaps, perfect in detail, but utterly
+devoid of EXPRESSION.
+
+The artist who paints a portrait is a failure without the ability to
+give expression: hence in architecture the acute-angled spires or
+arched roofs have the same expression that the "long face" carries.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+If we smile, the mouth curves upward; if we grieve, the lines turn
+downward.
+
+108. In festival decorations, joy is expressed by loops, curves and
+festoons.
+
+109. In serious decorations (libraries, studies, church or office work)
+straight lines are used; curtains are gathered in plaits so that the
+sags and drapes are all out of them; they are drawn. It is the same when
+we say of a person: "He looks serious, his face is drawn; it is full of
+lines."
+
+110. The observation, "a broad smile on his face," means literally just
+that; the lines extend outward and upward, giving an expression of
+breadth and joy to the countenance.
+
+
+#ILLUSION#
+
+111. A doorway looks wider that has at the top a drapery which crosses
+in one complete curved sweep. A side-wall is larger apparently if along
+the frieze line long, wide loops or festoons are arranged. The same wall
+is more contracted and higher if treated in arrow-point forms of design.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+The decorator should study these matters of illusion, for they are
+vital to the success of his labor. (See ¶ 116.)
+
+112. Perpendicular lines contract the wall space and extend the apparent
+height of a room; horizontal lines shorten the apparent height of the
+ceiling and lengthen the width of the room. (See exceptions, ¶ 119.)
+
+These straight lines may be used where extremes are needed. (See pages
+61 and 63.)
+
+A short doorway, for instance, looks higher where the portière is hung
+in straight folds; so also with a cottage window.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+113. Every decorator who handles fabrics, every cabinetmaker who lays
+out the woodwork of a room, every stained glass window maker, should
+appreciate one fact: A line which is finished at the top or bottom, or
+both, with acute angles appears longer than the line that is finished
+top and bottom with an obtuse or right angle. It is the same with the
+finish of a wall frieze.
+
+If the wall frieze ends abruptly (Illustration A on page 57), it is
+foreshortened; if it is finished by angles (Illustration B), the height
+of the room is apparently greater. (See the illustration on page 51.)
+
+114. It is the same way with curves; given two lines of equal length and
+enclose one with convex and the other with concave curves, and the line
+enclosed convex will appear longer.
+
+ [Illustration: Treated for Broken Heights.]
+
+115. In dress a collar brought down to an acute angle in the front of
+the waist gives height effect, whereas a perfectly straight collar
+around the neck reduces the apparent height and gives width effect.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+116. The use of arches should be studied. A space that is arched looks
+wider than it actually is, for the eye unconsciously follows the lines
+of the arch, and a distance or width effect is the result. The same
+space treated with a straight line is quickly bridged. The same space
+treated with lines that come to an angle looks narrower, for the reason
+that the eye becomes focused by the apex of the angle, and a height
+effect, not a breadth effect, is the result. (See page 57.)
+
+117. This illusion is best shown in the illustrations of the parallel
+lines that are crossed diagonally, with the result that the lines no
+longer look parallel because of the angles. Nevertheless, they are
+parallel, and the lines running diagonally at the bottom of this page
+are also parallel.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+We present two practical illustrations of illusion in the use of lines.
+(See ¶ 112.) They represent the side-walls of two rooms of the same
+dimensions, but showing apparently different proportions, the
+perpendicular lines making the side-wall look higher and the horizontal
+lines making the side-wall look lower. (See page 59.)
+
+ [Illustration: Illustration A.]
+
+ [Illustration: Illustration B. (See ¶ 113.)]
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+The length of the wall space is shortened, moreover, by the
+perpendicular lines and lengthened by the horizontal lines.
+
+118. No period expresses more clearly the joy of curves as opposed to
+the severity of straight lines than that voluptuous period of Louis XV
+known as Rococo. It was a profligate era, an era of pleasure, and the
+appended illustration of part of a frieze is in no way exaggerated, but
+a true example of a common expression. (See page 60.)
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+119. Distinct perpendicular lines give height effect, but they also
+narrow the apparent width of a wall space. It is best to have such line
+effects indistinct unless they appear as in the illustration on page 63,
+where they are intended to reduce the breadth effect of the pattern and
+neutralize a squat tendency.
+
+Indistinct perpendiculars give height effect, and do not reduce the wall
+width.

+
+
+#COLOR TERMS#
+
+120. In the study of color and its application authorities differ so
+materially that it is not only impossible to reconcile their theories,
+but the different terms used to express color thought create
+inextricable confusion.
+
+121. One authority fixes the neutrals as being black, gray and white;
+another regards them as those hues or tones which lack definite color,
+like quaternaries. Authorities differ, moreover, upon even the
+fundamental principles. Chevreuil selects red, yellow and blue as the
+primaries; Dr. Thomas Young selects red, green and violet. Helmholtz
+selects carmine, pale green and blue-violet; Maxwell scarlet red,
+emerald green and blue-violet; Professor Rood agrees with Maxwell;
+Professor Church, of the Royal Academy of Arts, London, regards the
+primaries as red, green and blue; George Hurst, the English authority,
+fixes upon red, yellow and blue, the Brewsterian theory.
+
+122. One must remember always in studying color that we are treating
+with the material, not with the illusion. We are dealing with pigments,
+not with prismatic phenomena, and it must be obvious that the only three
+primary colors that can be used in a way to produce all other colors are
+red, yellow and blue.
+
+123. Whatever may be the spectrum theories of Sir Isaac Newton, Young or
+Helmholtz, for practical reasons we prefer to follow an authority as
+eminent as Chevreuil, for years the head of the National Gobelin Works
+of France, and a man experienced in the practice as well as the theory
+of color. Any effort to fix the character of color and describe it by
+periods and epochs will always prove unsatisfactory, for the reason that
+terms and expressions have changed with every period since the Egyptian,
+4000 B.C.
+
+124. We think we know purple until we discover that the purple of
+royalty, the ermine and purple, the purple of the cardinals' robes,
+frequently approximated what we now call carmine. Royal purple and
+Venetian blue are mere trade terms. Practical men in the purchase of
+things decorative soon discover that color terms convey only individual
+impressions and no distinctive qualities that may be relied upon; so
+that any effort to fix the color value by periods would be futile. We
+may assume that in the age of oak, mahogany, white and gold or walnut
+furniture, the fabric and wall colors harmonized with the wood colors,
+and to that degree we may fix the period character of color. The moment
+that the tone of the woodwork or the light conditions varied, color
+character varied also.
+
+125. We must also bear well in mind that colors which have come down to
+us as examples of ancient times have been subjected to the changing
+influences of centuries, and have faded and altered. The colors on the
+walls of the historic rooms of European palaces have greatly altered.
+The flat reds and the deadish blues of the Pompeiian frescoes have been
+altered by chemical action during the 1,850 years' burial under the lava
+of Vesuvius. We are not justified in judging of the colors of A.D. 79
+by the restoration-examples in 1900. Hence the mere expressions
+Pompeiian red, Pompeiian blue, can convey no definite, positive meaning.

+#COLOR VOCABULARY#
+
+126. In music, a tone which is formed by a certain number of vibrations
+per second is the same the world over, and each and every tone has a
+name; but in color no such standards exist. People have attempted to
+formulate a system by denominating the primary colors, red, yellow and
+blue, respectively as R, Y and B, and the combinations of these colors
+as combinations of letters. For example, red, with varying degrees of
+yellow added, is denominated by the letters R R O, or R O R, or O O R.
+This system tends to confusion, and is inadequate to express tints and
+shades. Various other systems have been devised. Color charts have been
+made, and in each system arbitrary names have been assigned, so that
+each color may be known by one of several names. The difficulty of
+insuring accuracy under these circumstances becomes very evident.
+
+127. In discussing color combinations, one is usually confused because
+the subject is not a tangible expression that can be grasped like the
+sound of a note in music. With color charts, every maker has a standard
+of his own and the term "red" may mean anything within a wide range; a
+yellow-red or a blue-red, the yellow-red perhaps being cherry, the
+blue-red perhaps being carmine. An appreciation of the Harmonies of
+Contrast or Harmonies of Analogy or Relationship is accompanied by great
+confusion because of this lack of standardization.
+
+128. There is only one true standard of color, and that is the standard
+as shown in the prism, and expressed by the spectrum. It is within the
+province of any man to determine the proper relationship of color if he
+starts with the chart we here present. We fix definitely the three
+primary and the three secondary colors, the primaries, red, yellow and
+blue, being those indicated by the heavy black lines; the secondaries,
+orange, green and violet, being indicated by the broad stipple lines.
+
+All other lines are the tertiary or quaternary colors.
+
+If we have clearly in our minds the appearance of the normal red and
+yellow, and clearly in our minds the orange that is made up by combining
+the two, we ought to be able to fix in our imagination the colors that
+come midway between the red and the orange, or the colors that come
+nearer the red or nearer the orange. Let us assume we are to select
+colors in the harmony of _contrast_. Take a ruler and lay across the
+chart and the contrasting colors are always opposite; the direct
+contrast of red is green because green is composed of the other two
+primary colors, yellow and blue; the contrast of blue is orange because
+orange is a combination of the other two primaries, yellow and red; the
+contrast of yellow is violet, a combination of blue and red.
+
+Now, to determine the niceties of distinction, let us take a red that is
+a little off shade, a little yellowish; one must determine in the mind's
+eye about how much yellow there is in it and, to determine the true
+contrast, carry your line across from the point which you think is
+represented by the yellowish and you find that it is green with a little
+blue added, or bluish-green.
+
+129. One must also determine the scale of color. The parallel circular
+lines on the chart designate four scales, or four grades, of each color,
+growing lighter by adding white, to the center; as you add more and more
+white the tint becomes more and more light. In determining contrast, be
+careful to stick to your scale. Contrasts, to be in harmony, must be
+colors of the same scale.
+
+130. Harmony of analogy or relationship is clearly expressed in the
+chart. The family relations of red are the things which go with red. We
+may have a harmony of analogy in violet which includes the relations of
+red and blue. We must not attempt to carry the family relationship too
+far. There is a wide range of variety in these combinations of analogy
+because they may include not only all scales of each color from the
+darkest tones to the lightest tints but they include tertiaries and
+quaternaries.
+
+Each man must establish his own standard, and by establishing it he
+forms unconsciously a very comprehensive understanding of color. It has
+never been possible to print a true colored chart because no two copies
+of the sheet off the press would be alike. A little more ink or a little
+less ink, or a little lighter or a little heavier impression, changes
+the values.
+
+The chart illustrates contrasts of all of the primaries and secondary
+colors and the broken colors or hues. In the same way the tertiary or
+quaternary colors may be arranged, but for convenience we show the
+contrasts as follows:

+131. One who attempts to make color compositions with no more reliable
+guide than taste can expect to accomplish no more than he who in music
+possesses a good ear but no musical training.
+
+132. The note of discord in color is best avoided by an infallible
+guide, as the discord in music is best avoided by thorough training in
+the law of harmony. The color chart on page 73 has been so arranged that
+each of the shades is in exact harmony with the shade directly opposite.
+
+133. For example, to ascertain the color that is in harmony with the
+shade denominated Red-Orange, it is necessary simply to lay a ruler
+across the diagram to find the corresponding harmony, which is
+Blue-Green.
+
+134. We know that the primary colors are red, yellow and blue, and that
+the combination of any two of these gives a secondary color. The
+secondary color is the complement of the remaining third color; thus
+yellow and blue form green, and green is the complement or contrasting
+harmony of red. Red and yellow form orange, and orange is the complement
+of blue. Blue and red form violet, and violet is the complement of
+yellow. These are facts we all know. Now, if red is the complement or
+contrasting harmony of green, and yellow contrasts with violet, then red
+with one, two or three degrees of yellow added will contrast with green
+with one, two or three degrees of blue added.
+
+Assume, for example, that a decorator dealing with a red side-wall
+wishes upholsterings in the correct shade of green. He knows he has a
+red wall, he knows also that he wishes to use some shade of green, but
+without some fixed standard it is impossible for him to do more than
+approximate the correct shade of green to use. If, however, he could
+compare the red of his wall with his color chart and determine exactly
+which of the many shades of red, or which of the many yellow reds, or
+blue reds, the wall is toned in, it is a simple process to ascertain the
+exact green harmonizing with this red.
+
+The second great use of the color chart is then an infallible guide to
+color harmony, whether analagous or contrasting.

+
+#ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING#
+
+135. In considering artificial light, we will avoid all efforts to
+analyze the different forms of energy, magnetic energy, electric energy,
+heat energy, mechanical momentum, radiating energy, and deal with result
+rather than with cause and effect. It will be sufficient to state as the
+deduction of the scientist that certain waves or vibrations which affect
+the fibers of the optic nerve are transmitted by the brain into color.
+(¶ 3.) Self-luminous bodies are bodies which produce light. Illuminated
+bodies shine by borrowed light, and are distinguished by the different
+amounts and quantities of light which they reflect. A dense cloud which
+appears nearly black when between the observer's eye and the sun, owing
+to the degree of density with which it intercepts the light, may become
+brilliantly white when the sun's rays fall upon its constituent
+particles, for the light which cannot penetrate the cloud is continually
+reflected to and from the surface of its minute parts. Thus it happens
+that the lower part of a cloud seen against a background of dark
+mountain may appear white, while the upper part may appear dull gray. In
+the alteration of reflection we have an alteration of color. A stick of
+sealing wax will show in some positions white reflected light, while in
+other positions we see only the red. A polished plane furnishes one kind
+of reflection, a piece of chalk another.
+
+136. The decorator has for years past been disposed to defer to the
+illuminating engineer in the artificial lighting of a home. But while
+the technical man or engineer may have a knowledge of power and energy,
+he has not studied the decorative value of lighting. His problem has
+been economic rather than psychologic. The illuminating engineer cannot
+be expected to appreciate fully the harmonies of color in decoration.
+
+137. It is the decorator's province to consider not only the power of
+light in the furnishing of a house, but the character of the light--not
+only its color influence, but the structural character of its
+introduction, as affecting these furnishings. It is beyond his province
+to determine whether carbon should be replaced by tantalum, osmium or
+tungsten to get higher efficiency, but he must understand the effects of
+these lights and prescribe accordingly.
+
+
+#ABSORPTION AND REFLECTION#
+
+138. The architect who designates the number and location of outlets for
+the lighting sources, and specifies the candle-power of the lamps, knows
+nothing of the ultimate decoration of the house. Very often the
+specifications are finished before the color scheme has been decided
+upon, and as a result the degree of illumination either falls short of
+what is needed in case of dark-colored interiors, or proves excessive
+with light-tinted rooms. The architect works from one point, economy,
+the decorator from another, æsthetic; while the householder, the
+consumer who pays the illuminating bills, cannot comprehend why his
+lighting bills increase as his taste for luminous or dark-colored
+furnishings is gratified. Many houses are left in the white plaster for
+a year or more until the plaster settles. In this condition a small unit
+of light is sufficient, but when the decorator completes his work,
+adding fabrics and wall-papers which absorb and diminish the light, the
+householder, unaware of the cause, notices a material increase in his
+bills for illumination. These facts must be understood to be remedied,
+and it remains for the illuminating engineer to determine by direct
+experiment the value of any light as it affects and influences color, as
+well as the value of color as it affects light. It may be assumed
+without danger that the softest light is that of the candle, but we are
+not living in the candle age, and have to deal with either gas or
+electricity as the main illuminating agents.
+
+139. We have to consider the mercury arc light, the yellow flame carbon,
+the white magnetite and titanium arc--all of high efficiency, giving
+orange yellow in the flame-carbon to yellow and yellow white in the
+acetyline of the tungsten filaments. Then we have the greenish yellow of
+the Welsbach mantle, the bluish green of the mercury arc, the yellowish
+white of the carbon arc, as well as the clear white of the titanium
+arc.
+
+140. The subject may be divided into three heads: Quality, or
+approximation to natural light. Quantity, as demanded by reflection or
+absorption. Installation, diffusion or mechanical distribution.
+
+141. Normal light is the light of general diffusion in daylight, and
+when we can find an artificial light that has the character of natural
+light we will have what is obviously the best illuminant for the home.
+Bear in mind that natural light as it appears out of doors is materially
+altered when indoors by the presence of different planes and angles,
+which cast and receive various depths of shadow; the quality required is
+that which will provide illumination without glare. The sun's rays are
+softened and mellowed by the depth of air through which they pass, and
+it is this mellowness that is the chief requisite in illumination.
+
+Good decorative illumination does not mean illumination that reveals
+every hidden corner of a room. We need shadows to betray form, relieve
+monotony and give depth to the _ensemble_. If in an illuminated area
+light is of a uniform intensity, we have a bad effect. The variation of
+tone in a fabric is due to the light reaching it from a given point.
+Differences in intensity make shadows and tones.
+
+142. The illuminating engineer treats the home as he treats a public
+hall. He ignores the individuality of the room; the ball-room and the
+sickroom are lighted alike. He does not always consider the diminished
+force of light as it passes through a refracting surface, for it must be
+borne in mind that any method of indirect lighting by refraction is apt
+to cause a loss of volume. The use of various kinds of globes or lamp
+shades must all be considered. A light-colored wall reflects
+illumination, a dark-colored wall absorbs it; hence the amount of
+illumination is increased or diminished by the color of the walls.
+
+
+#LIGHT EFFECT ON COLOR#
+
+143. To illuminate a city, with the dull grim environment of streets and
+houses, a soft yellow glow will give warmth and tone; the greenish
+yellow of the Welsbach or the blue green of the mercury arc may even be
+desirable, but the same green or violet rays are ghastly in a house, and
+should never be permitted.
+
+144. The warm glow of the yellow light, while pleasing to the
+complexion, is, however, objectionable as disturbing the color
+composition of dress or furnishings. A gaslight sends a yellow glow over
+all that it reaches, and has the same effect as the introduction of
+yellow into every color tint in the room. The walls that are red take on
+a scarlet hue; the scarlet ones are yellowed to orange; the blues become
+greenish.
+
+145. In order that the decorator may more readily grasp the subject, we
+have arranged a table showing the color changes effected by rays of
+yellow, blue, green and violet:
+
+ Orange rays falling on white make it appear orange.
+ " " red it appears reddish-orange.
+ " " orange it appears deeper orange.
+ " " yellow it appears orange-yellow.
+ " " green it appears dark yellow-green.
+ " " blue it appears dark reddish-gray.
+ " " violet it appears dark purplish-gray.
+ " " black it appears brownish-black.
+
+ Yellow rays falling on white make it appear yellow.
+ " " red make it appear orange-brown.
+ " " orange make it appear orange-yellow.
+ " " yellow make it appear deeper yellow.
+ " " green make it appear yellowish-green.
+ " " blue make it appear slaty-gray.
+ " " violet make it appear purplish-gray.
+ " " black make it appear olive-black.
+
+ Green rays falling on white make it appear green.
+ " " red make it appear yellowish-brown.
+ " " orange make it appear grayish-leaf-green.
+ " " yellow make it appear yellowish-green.
+ " " green make it appear deeper green.
+ " " blue make it appear bluish-green.
+ " " violet make it appear bluish-gray.
+ " " black make it appear dark greenish-gray.
+
+ Blue rays falling on white make it appear blue.
+ " " red make it appear purple.
+ " " orange make it appear plum-brown.
+ " " yellow make it appear yellowish-gray.
+ " " green make it appear bluish-green.
+ " " blue make it appear deeper blue.
+ " " violet make it appear bluer.
+ " " black make it appear bluish-black.
+
+ Violet rays falling on white make it appear violet.
+ " " red make it appear purple.
+ " " orange make it appear reddish-gray.
+ " " yellow make it appear purplish-gray.
+ " " green make it appear bluish-gray.
+ " " blue make it appear bluish-violet.
+ " " violet make it appear deeper violet.
+ " " black make it appear violet-black.
+
+146. The pale tints of electric lights, which make every face in a room
+look ghastly, will affect quite as disastrously every soft color in the
+furnishings. In ordinary gaslight a pair of white gloves looks yellow,
+and we have seen Welsbach lamps which threw out a violet-blue
+illumination, depressing in the extreme. Under a yellow glow, blues,
+greens, violets and purples are greatly changed. Under a violet glow,
+yellows and greens are ruined. To see all colors in about the same value
+that they possess by daylight one must have a light in which no color
+tone is apparent.
+
+The question as to the disposition and intensity of the lights is of
+vital importance, and must be considered with the requirements of each
+particular room in mind.
+
+147. For the drawing-room and reception-room it is desirable that all
+parts of the room be evenly lighted, without a pronounced glare in any
+particular part of the room. One of the most effective ways of
+accomplishing this is by distributing the lights around the room, either
+on the ceiling, in the cove or above a wide molding, so that the ceiling
+acts as a reflecting agent, and distributes an even tone of light to all
+parts.
+
+
+#ILLUMINATION#
+
+148. For the dining-room and living-room a different plan must be used,
+because of the different requirements. The table is usually in such
+rooms the chief feature of the furnishings, and it is customary to focus
+upon it the main body of light. While this is obviously necessary, the
+surroundings must not be ignored; neither is it possible to raise the
+center light to such a height that its radiation may reach all parts of
+the room, because in so doing the light reaches the eye at an extremely
+unpleasant angle. The drop fixture should be low enough to effectively
+light all parts of the table, while at the same time its shade should
+screen the light from the eyes of the room's occupants. To illuminate
+the surrounding parts of the room other lights should be distributed
+where they will most effectively supply what further illumination is
+required.
+
+149. For the bedroom or boudoir the location of the lights should also
+be subordinated to the purposes of the room, and in addition to
+providing sufficient illumination to the entire area, special
+illumination should be provided for the mirrors and the dressing-table.
+The lights for the mirrors should be planned to illuminate the person
+and not the image.
+
+150. For large reception-rooms in hotels and public institutions the
+plan is frequently adopted of having all light provided by small table
+lamps with opalescent shades. These provide a medium glow throughout the
+entire room that is pleasing, and avoid entirely the garishness usually
+associated with such rooms. One of the mistakes of the day is the use of
+high-power lights, which are so intense that they require to be screened
+or shaded, involving waste of light and concentrating an unnecessary
+amount of illumination upon a narrow sphere.
+
+
+#REFLECTIVE POWER OF COLOR#
+
+The following table will give an idea of the percentage of light
+reflected from ordinary wall-hangings and papers:
+
+ Per Cent.
+ Reflection
+
+ White blotting-paper .82
+ White cartridge-paper .80
+ Ordinary foolscap .70
+ Ordinary newspaper .50 to .70
+ Chrome yellow paper .62
+ Orange paper .50
+ Yellow wall-paper .40
+ Yellow painted wall (clean) .40
+ Tracing cloth, pale blue .35
+ Light pink paper .36
+ Blue paper .25
+ Emerald green .18
+ Dark brown paper .13
+ Vermilion paper .12
+ Blue green paper .12
+ Cobalt blue paper .12
+ Black paper 0.5
+ Deep chocolate paper 0.4
+ French ultramarine blue paper 3.5
+ Black cloth 1.2
+ Black velvet 0.4
+
+151. It is very difficult to select practical artificial illuminants,
+because of the various color properties possessed by each. A Welsbach
+mantle, which gives a greenish tint, is pretty sure to alter the
+character of any color other than green. Incandescent electric light, as
+well as ordinary gaslight, contains a yellow tint.
+
+
+#THE COLOR OF ARTIFICIAL LIGHTS#
+
+152. In planning or matching colors for a room, it is best to consider
+the purpose for which the room is to be used, and match the colors under
+the same light conditions that will prevail in the finished room.
+
+Deep, full colors are less affected by the shadings in artificial
+illuminants than lighter tones of the same color.
+
+ ILLUMINANT. COLOR.
+
+ Sun (high in sky) White.
+ Sun (near horizon) Orange red.
+ Sky light Bluish white.
+ Electric arc (short) White.
+ Electric arc (long) Bluish white to violet.
+ Nernst lamp White.
+ Incandescent (normal) Yellow-white.
+ Incandescent (below voltage) Orange to orange-red.

+ Welsbach light Greenish white.
+ Gaslight (Siemens burner) Nearly white, faint yellow tinge.
+ Gaslight (ordinary) Yellowish white to pale orange.
+ Kerosene lamp Yellowish white to pale orange.

+
+
+#ARTIFICIAL LIGHT APPLICATION#

+153. The introduction of light by the medium of a wire, which may be
+carried to any point in a room, encourages so many possibilities for
+comfort and effect that it behooves us to forget traditional customs
+which were established during the gaslight period. The introduction of
+gaslight through tubes was a rather complex problem, and the carrying of
+the pipes into the room through a main chandelier was the most
+advisable constructive form. But we have no need for such cumbersome
+fixtures in this day of wiring.
+
+A mere cord takes the place of an inch pipe. Modern German and Austrian
+lighting fixtures frequently are mere pendants, with the cord frankly in
+evidence. In this way the lights may be placed wherever needed--at the
+head of the lounge, so one may read more clearly by it; close by the
+piano; over the tea-table. In fact, supplementary lights to the general
+illumination are a convenience that the decorator should consider.
+
+154. The lighting of a house is a matter so dependent upon æsthetic
+conditions that it is never within the scope of the electrician. It is a
+problem for a decorator alone to solve. Intense and glaring lights of
+unusual power must be avoided. Luminants of low intrinsic brilliancy are
+preferable.
+
+155. The floor is the least important surface for illumination, and has
+no reflecting power of value. The walls vary in value according to their
+color and surface. With lights radiating upward, however, the ceiling
+possesses definite power, and should be considered.
+
+156. Dark colors absorb light, while white and light colors reflect, and
+this must always be remembered; for upon the character of the
+decorations and furnishings of various rooms the quantity as well as the
+quality of light has serious influence.
+
+
+#POWER NECESSARY#
+
+157. While the list which we give herewith is based largely upon area,
+it may be taken as a basis of calculation for lighting equipment.
+
+It is estimated that 300 square feet of a hallway requires four
+sixteen-candlepower, or eight eight-candlepower units.
+
+In a room 20 x 20 feet, with furnishings of mahogany and green, broken
+up by bookcases and other furniture producing heavy shadows, it is
+estimated that twelve eight-candlepower lights are sufficient if worked
+into the frieze, and that a reading lamp of not less than
+thirty-two-candlepower be used as a drop light.
+
+Assuming a room is 15 x 15 feet, and furnished in light tones, four
+eight-candlepower lamps are ample.
+
+A living-room 20 x 25 feet, in light tones of color, requires two
+thirty-two-candlepower lights, centrally located, and about twelve
+eight-candlepower lights. This should provide brilliant illumination.
+
+A room 15 x 20 feet, in dark wood and hangings, needs eight
+eight-candlepower reflector lamps, backed up by six more
+eight-candlepower lamps.
+
+Bedrooms 15 x 15 feet in size, where they are not furnished in deep
+colors, should be equipped with two sixteen-candlepower lights.
+
+
+#COLOR CONTROL#
+
+158. Mechanical lighting is so easily undertaken that it predisposes one
+to extravagance. Properly applied, artificial light adds materially to
+the charm of a room, but with illumination secured by the mere twist of
+the wrist one is prone to ignore the value of shadows and kill the
+beauty of light and shade by throwing illumination into the remotest
+corners. The danger to good decoration is not only in overlighting, but
+in overdecorating, and commercialism naturally encourages this tendency.
+The floor is frequently best treated if not entirely covered with a
+one-pattern treatment; the walls are frequently most pleasing if done in
+several papers instead of one. The most effective room is the one
+lighted in various degrees of strength, and while the decorator
+unconsciously follows this idea and avoids superabundance of pattern by
+using panels, friezes and wainscotings, we believe that each and every
+section or part of a room should be treated separately, observing, of
+course, a consistent spirit of design, preserving the period style and
+the general color effect; we would vary the actual shade of coloring and
+the size of pattern according to the dimensions of the wall space it
+occupies. The large patterns and the strong colorings which may be
+appropriate to an exposed wall are all out of proportion in narrow or
+darkened confines. Dark and deep recesses should obviously be treated
+differently to advanced or conspicuous spaces.
+
+159. At a recent meeting of the Illuminating Engineering Society, D.
+McFarlan Moore made the following observations: "A few years ago there
+was practically no way of changing the colors of the various forms of
+lamps, that is, the candle had its color perforce; such a thing as
+modifying it was not dreamed of. The oil lamp had its color; the open
+burner gas flame its color, the incandescent lamp its color, and the
+arc lamp its color. At the present time there are only two ways widely
+in use of varying the color; that is, if a person wishes to have a light
+of a different color, there are two main ways of getting it. One way is
+to get another light source, and the other way is to use a diffusion
+globe of some kind, which in any instance is extremely unscientific and
+inefficient. Some of the most recent advances in this line are connected
+with the flaming arc lamp. There we have an instance where the first
+step, at least, was taken toward scientifically controlling the color
+value. I refer to placing different chemicals in the carbon and thereby
+obtaining a color which can, to a very great extent, be determined
+previously. But still it by no means can be said that by means of the
+flaming arc lamp the color factor is under perfect control. However, it
+is possible now to have the color value under perfect control, and this
+is obtained by utilizing a vacuum tube, and by changing the various
+gases used in the tube to change the color. This has many advantages,
+and from a scientific standpoint it cannot be criticised, as can the
+other methods which have been used. For example, if you use a properly
+regulated vacuum tube and feed it with air only, a pink light results;
+if you feed it with nitrogen a yellow light results, and such a light
+can be used for a great many purposes; in fact its range of usefulness
+so far as the color is concerned, is about the same as that of the
+ordinary incandescent lamp, and therefore can be used by florists or by
+clothing merchants, and the distortion is not any worse than that of
+the ordinary incandescent lamp. However, it is not by any means claimed
+that when a tube is fed nitrogen, that the color is at all near
+daylight; it is simply a color which appears about the same as that
+produced by the ordinary incandescent lamp. Due to the enormous
+radiating surfaces of the tube, the color in day time looks considerably
+redder than that of the incandescent lamp because the lamp is extremely
+small as compared with the tube. When such a tube is fed with carbon
+dioxide at a definite pressure, and at a definite intensity, a light is
+obtained that undoubtedly is closer to average daylight color values
+than any light which has ever been produced before, and we can almost
+say that it is entirely satisfactory. For instance, experts in matching
+colors in the largest dye works of this country, men who have tried all
+other forms of light, and found them not at all suitable for their uses,
+have matched their colors under a vacuum tube supplied with carbon
+dioxide and have found after months of practical use that they could not
+detect any difference between most delicate lavender shades, when they
+are matched at night time under the tube and in day time by daylight,
+not direct sunlight."
+
+
+#DRESS AND COMPLEXION#
+
+160. The nerves of the eye, exhilarated by any pronounced color,
+unconsciously observe the complement of that color when turned from it.
+The eye accustomed to the red of a woman's dress, unconsciously sees a
+greenish cast in the face that is naturally pale, and in the same way
+the pallor of a woman's face takes on a tint of red as the complement
+or contrast of a green dress. As one's appetite for the thing that is
+sweet becomes exhausted by a superabundance of sweets, so the eye
+resting upon a mass of red in the dress of a woman fails to appreciate
+the red tint in the face, and the face thus juxtaposed becomes pallid. A
+red-faced woman often wears brighter red in dress, so that her face may
+appear less red. The blue dress gives yellow to the face; the yellow
+dress gives blue; these results are altered materially by the
+intervention of white between the face and the dress. White intensifies
+color. If there is a tinge of pink in the face white brings it out. If
+there is sallowness in the face white accentuates it. It is for this
+reason that many women wear yellow instead of white at the neck, so that
+the yellow of the face becomes less conspicuous by contrast. (See ¶ 31.)
+
+161. It is dangerous, however, in matters of dress to strictly apply
+this rule, because color has a temperamental influence apart from the
+purely visual. Some women are positively depressed by certain colors;
+such colors are to be avoided, no matter what the deductions of theory.
+(See ¶ 94.)
+
+162. The black dress will make a woman look pale, for the reason that
+the black absorbs whatever color there may be in her face. A dark color
+has also absorbent characteristics. The lighter the color, the less
+absorbent. Hence light greens are preferable to bring out the color in
+the face than dark greens, assuming that we are to consider only this
+point, which is all that is necessary to consider in house decoration.
+Therefore light greens as a background to theater boxes or as a wall
+background are always desirable.
+
+ [Illustration: Lighting by wires. See ¶ 153.]
+
+
+#COLOR TERMS#
+
+ BROKEN COLOR. Color changed by the addition of black,
+ white or gray.
+
+ CHROMA. Color.
+
+ COLD COLORS are colors containing very little, if any, red or
+ yellow.
+
+ CONTRAST ANALOGIES. Apparent contrasts of secondary and
+ tertiary colors which have constituent parts that are
+ related. Thus compositions of citrine and plum are apparent
+ contrasts, citrine being one of the three tertiary
+ colors, russet, slate and citrine, and plum being composed
+ of russet and slate, but in both citrine and plum
+ there is red, yellow and blue; hence related. There can
+ be no true contrasts excepting between primaries and
+ secondaries.
+
+ GRAY. Normal gray is black and white mixed, but quaternary
+ colors are also called grays, or colors of the dull or
+ neutral scale.
+
+ HARMONY OF ANALOGY is produced by using related colors.
+
+ HARMONY OF CONTRAST. The juxtaposition of a primary
+ color, for example, with a secondary made of the other
+ two primaries. Thus of the primaries red, yellow and
+ blue, the contrasts would be red and green. Of the two
+ colors thus forming contrast the one is said to be the
+ COMPLEMENTARY of the other.
+
+ HUE. Applied to the predominating color in a composition.
+
+ INTENSE OR SATURATED COLORS. Colors that are pure, having
+ no tint or shade.
+
+ NEUTRAL COLORS. Applied to black, gray and quaternary
+ colors.
+
+ NORMAL. Intense colors of the prism. Colors of the natural
+ scale.
+
+ PRISMATIC COLORS are the colors viewed through a prism.
+
+ QUATERNARY COLORS. Made by combining two tertiary colors.
+ Quaternary colors are plum, sage and buff.
+
+ SCALE. Relates to colors of the same degree of tone.
+
+ SECONDARY COLORS. Orange, green and violet, each a combination
+ of two primaries.
+
+ SHADE. Produced by the addition of black to a normal color.
+
+ SOMBRE COLORS. Blue, violet and the subdued tones of luminous
+ colors.
+
+ SPECTRUM. The illusion of color produced by means of the
+ prism.
+
+ TERTIARY COLORS. Made by combining two secondary colors;
+ tertiary colors are slate, russet and citrine.
+
+ TINT. Produced by the addition of white to a normal color.
+
+ TONES are the gradations of color by adding either black or
+ white.
+
+ WARM COLORS or luminous colors are those having normal
+ yellow or red in the preponderance.
+
+ ADVANCING COLORS. Reds and bright yellow arouse the nerve
+ sense more quickly than blue or tones of color predominating
+ in blue. Hence they are called advancing colors.
+
+ RECEDING COLORS. Blue colors or colors in which blue predominate
+ or the exciting influences of yellow or red are
+ subjugated, are cold or receding colors.

+
+1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+https://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+
+The Foundation's principal office is located at 4557 Melan Dr. S.
+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org. Email contact links and up to date contact
+information can be found at the Foundation's web site and official
+page at https://pglaf.org
+
+For additional contact information:
+ Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+ Chief Executive and Director
+ gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+<h2>FUNDAMENTAL CONDITIONS</h2>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>LIGHT, COLOR, FORM, PROPORTION<br />
+AND DIMENSIONS</strong></p>
+
+
+<p>Whatever is good in interior decoration is the result of consistent
+relationship between Light, Color, Form, Proportion and Dimensions. The
+choice of Color should be guided by the conditions of Light. The beauty
+of Form and the symmetry of Proportion can exist only by a balance with
+Dimensions.</p>
+
+<p>Therefore, apart from any knowledge of historic or period decoration,
+effective or successful work must observe the technical laws governing
+conditions.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>LIGHT</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para1" id="para1"></a></p>
+<p>1. The white light of the sun is compounded of an almost innumerable
+number of color elements, as shown by the phenomena of the rainbow or by
+experimenting with the prism. (See <a href="#para7">&para; 7</a>.)
+When a ray of sunshine passes
+through a glass prism it is decomposed or separated, and if the
+prismatic colors
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_4" id="Page_4">[Pg 4]</a></span>
+are received upon a white screen you will find on the
+spectrum among the colors generated a pure blue, a pure red and a pure
+yellow. These are the primary colors, and it is necessary when thinking
+color to bear these prismatic colors in mind as standards.</p>
+
+<p>2. Color is an internal sensation originating in the excitation of the
+optic nerve by a wave action which we call light.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para3" id="para3"></a></p>
+<p>3. The theory of light, the wave theory, is based upon the assumption
+that throughout all space there is an infinitely thin medium called
+ether. Scientists differ as to what this may be, but its movements
+constitute light, a reflection from a luminous body.</p>
+
+<p>4. Everything which we see is visible because it either emits light,
+like a flame, or reflects light.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para5" id="para5"></a></p>
+<p>5. A piece of black cloth upon a white plate reflects but a small
+proportion of the light. The plate reflects a large proportion. A piece
+of black velvet reflects less light than black cloth and gives the
+effect of absolute blackness, or an empty and dark space.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para6" id="para6"></a></p>
+<p>6. In practical demonstrations the study of color will be confusing
+unless it is understood at the outstart that pure prismatic colors can
+seldom be found in manufactured pigments, hence any demonstration of the
+theory of color composition is usually unsatisfactory.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para7" id="para7"></a></p>
+<p>7. The theory which brings out of a ray of sunshine the disunited
+prismatic colors carries with it the
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_5" id="Page_5">[Pg 5]</a></span>
+deduction that before separation
+these colors constitute white light; but it must be manifest to even the
+superficial reader that such colors are mere spectrum colors&mdash;vision
+colors&mdash;and any amalgamation of material or pigment colors, so far from
+producing white, produces almost black.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para8" id="para8"></a></p>
+<p>8. The theory that red and yellow make orange, and that a red and blue
+make violet, is correct; but if one attempts to demonstrate the theory
+with pigments, one is confronted not only by the lack of standard
+manufactured colors but by impurities, adulterations and chemical
+reaction in the pigments. The adulteration may not be perceptible in one
+primary color, but it is manifest when that color is brought into action
+with another primary, for it is seldom that a pure secondary results.</p>
+

+<p class="center"><strong>COLOR NOMENCLATURE&mdash;HARMONIES</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para9" id="para9"></a></p>
+<p>9. Color nomenclature includes primary, secondary and tertiary colors,
+and innumerable hues, shades and tints. All these colors bear relations
+to one another, either relations of analogy, or relations of contrast.
+(See <a href="#para18">&para; 18 and &para; 19</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>The <a href="#img6">Circle Diagram I</a> shows the manner in which the various colors are
+formed. (See also <a href="#img9">Diagram III</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p><a name="img6" id="img6"></a></p>
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 397px;">
+<img src="images/img6.png" width="397" height="400" alt="image" title="" />
+<span class="caption">DIAGRAM I</span>
+</div>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p>The third circle shows how slate, citrine and
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_7" id="Page_7">[Pg 7]</a></span>
+russet are made. For
+instance, slate is one part of violet and one part of green. Hence, a
+tertiary color is made of equal parts of two secondaries.</p>
+
+<p>The outer circle, buff, sage and plum, can be analyzed in the same way.</p>
+
+<p>This <a href="#img6">Diagram I</a> is arranged to show not only component parts of a color,
+but the parts that properly harmonize.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>CONTRASTS</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para10" id="para10"></a></p>
+<p>10. In music it is an established fact that certain notes used in
+pleasing combination produce sounds we call harmonies. The moment that
+more than one note is struck, there is danger of discord, and when ten
+notes resound to the touch of the player, they must be the right notes,
+or they jar upon the sensibilities. In the use of color the same
+immutable law applies.</p>
+
+<p>11. In Circle <a href="#img8">Diagram II</a> the letters RV mean reddish violet, being a
+violet having more red than blue in its composition. BV means bluish
+violet, being a violet having more blue than red in its composition. BG
+means bluish green, being a green having more blue than yellow in its
+composition. YG means yellow green, being a green having more yellow
+than blue in its composition. YO means yellowish orange, being an orange
+having more yellow than red in its composition. RO means reddish orange,
+being an orange having more red than yellow in its composition. Thus we
+may advance from red to yellow by graduations almost imperceptible, by
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_8" id="Page_8">[Pg 8]</a></span>
+the addition of yellow, to a reddish orange, and so on gradually to
+orange, continuing on to yellowish orange, finally revealing pure
+yellow.</p>

+<p>12. The contrasting color at any stage may be determined by proceeding
+in a direct line across the circle: Red has for its contrasting color
+green; hence, reddish orange would have for its contrasting color a
+bluish green, for the simple reason that if
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_10" id="Page_10">[Pg 10]</a></span>
+red contrasts with green
+and orange contrasts with blue, the color between the red and the orange
+would contrast with the color between the green and the blue. Let us
+determine the contrasting color for crimson. Crimson is simply a red
+slightly tinged with blue. If red contrasts with green, a shade a little
+to the left of red slightly tinged with blue would contrast with a shade
+a little to the right of green slightly tinged with yellow. In other
+words, crimson, RV, would contrast with yellowish green, YG. Determine
+at what point of the circle any color that you have in mind will come,
+and the contrasting color would be immediately opposite.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para13" id="para13"></a></p>
+<p>13. The harmony of analogy consists of the harmony of related colors or
+tones of one color. (See <a href="#para17">&para; 17</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para14" id="para14"></a></p>
+<p>14. The harmony of contrast consists of colors in no way related. As an
+example of the harmony of analogy, we would mention red and orange,
+because both of these colors have ingredients in common, red being one
+of the two component parts of orange. As an example of the harmony of
+contrast, we suggest red and green, because there is nothing in common
+between the two, red being a primary color, and green a secondary,
+composed of the other two primaries, yellow and blue. (See <a href="#para17">&para; 17</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>15. Green is called the complement of red. The complement of blue would
+be orange, because
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_11" id="Page_11">[Pg 11]</a></span>
+orange is formed by combining the remaining
+primaries, red and yellow; and the complement of yellow would be violet,
+because violet is composed of blue and red, the other primaries.</p>
+
+<p>16. In <a href="#img8">Diagram II</a> we have arranged at opposite points the primaries 1,
+the secondaries 2, the tertiaries 3, the quaternaries 4.</p>
+
+<p>But <a href="#img9">Diagram III</a> goes further into the subject.</p>
+
+<p>It is easy to understand the composition of secondaries, but it is not
+so easy to know the tertiaries and quaternaries. (See also <a href="#img6">Diagram I</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>CONTRAST ANALOGIES</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para17" id="para17"></a></p>
+<p>17. <a href="#img9">Diagram III</a> is of the utmost value to the colorist, illustrating not
+only the composition of color, but showing the origin of each secondary
+from the two primaries, the origin of each tertiary from two
+secondaries, and of each quaternary from two tertiaries. It shows by
+groupings the harmonies of analogy or related colors; also the harmonies
+of contrast: By moving on the board one color on one line to another
+color upon another line, like the moving of a knight in a game of chess,
+and confining the moves always to adjoining lines, like yellow to
+violet, violet to citrine, citrine to plum, plum to brown. Yellow and
+violet are true contrasts, the one color having nothing in common with
+the other. The citrine and the plum, however, are approximate contrasts.
+For greater convenience, we have numbered the contrasting colors A&#8217;s and
+B&#8217;s. Absolute contrast is
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_12" id="Page_12">[Pg 12]</a></span>
+where the two colors have nothing in common.
+For composition purposes, however, citrine and violet may be considered
+contrasts, or correctly speaking, contrast analogies. (See <a href="#para19">&para; 19</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para18" id="para18"></a></p>
+<p>18. A harmony of contrast means the utilization of a primary color with
+its complementary, or a color in conjunction with another color in no
+degree related: a primary with a secondary. But when we soften these
+contrasting colors by the addition of white we have in the lighter tints
+a scale of chroma that is a form of analogy.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para19" id="para19"></a></p>
+<p>19. All combinations of secondary and tertiary colors, while apparently
+harmonies of contrast (the tertiary being made by the composition of two
+secondaries), constitute, in fact, contrast analogies, because by
+analysis we find that all tertiaries possess color components occurring
+in the apparently contrasting secondaries. (See <a href="#img9">Diagram III</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>20. The harmony of contrast, literally, can only occur in the pure
+primary colors juxtaposed to the pure secondary colors, for in no case
+does the color formed by the combination of the two primaries have
+anything in common with the third primary; while a tertiary composed of
+two secondaries invariably has qualities possessed by the third
+secondary.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para21" id="para21"></a></p>
+<p>21. In a room which is small or dark, the light tints in harmonies of
+analogy are advisable.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_13" id="Page_13">[Pg 13]</a></span></p>
+<p class="center"><strong>PROPORTIONS</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para22" id="para22"></a></p>
+<p>22. In the use of one color with another of contrasting character the
+question frequently arises, what proportion of each should be used to
+obtain the best effect? Illustrative color books show usually samples of
+color of the same size, leading one unconsciously to the error that
+contrasting colors should occupy the same surface dimensions.</p>
+
+<p>23. In every room there must be a prevailing or dominant color, and the
+use of a contrasting color must be limited to proportions which give
+simply a pleasing emphasis. Let us assume that a room has a deep frieze
+pronouncedly green. To treat the rest of the wall in red of a direct
+contrast would be ineffective.</p>
+
+<p>24. If a rule can be applied we would say that no strong normal color
+should be used in large surfaces. If we were dealing with pigments we
+would say that if one-sixth of a side-wall is devoted to a frieze in
+green, the balance of the wall space should be treated with the same
+amount of red, mixed with the same amount of gray.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para25" id="para25"></a></p>
+<p>25. For a room that is small and well lighted the fresh tints are not as
+desirable as the gray shades or tertiaries in conjunction with
+secondaries.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>COLOR IN LARGE OR SMALL ROOMS</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para26" id="para26"></a></p>
+<p>26. For a large room well lighted, yellow, red and orange in delicate
+shades are not as desirable as orange, violet and russet in light
+shades. This rule,

+for the treatment of a room or a design by following the guidance of
+<a href="#img6">Diagram I</a>. It will be noted in this diagram that the inner circle is
+blue, red and yellow, the primary colors.</p>
+
+<p>The second circle is composed of the secondaries; the third circle, the
+tertiaries, and the outer circle, the quaternaries.</p>
+
+<p>There is a nice distinction in the combination of primaries for the
+formation of secondaries, and exact proportions are quite necessary.</p>
+
+<p>An orange, for instance, would be off shade if it did not consist of
+half red and half yellow, but in the making of the quaternaries, which
+are, at best, gray shades, exact proportions are not necessary.</p>
+
+<p>Nevertheless, in <a href="#img6">Diagram I</a> we have observed exact proportions in order
+to make our demonstration clear.</p>
+
+<p>The harmony of analogy is the combination of colors related, but the
+relationship must be displayed in proportions consistent with the origin
+of each and every color used.</p>
+
+<p>Let us assume that the prevailing note in a room, in either the
+side-wall or floor, is sage.</p>

+We can tell by drawing lines from the center of <a href="#img6">Diagram I</a> to the
+extremities of the space marked sage that there is a little blue and a
+little yellow, some green and slate and citrine used in the composition
+of sage, and hence the use of these colors constitutes the harmony of
+relationship or analogy.</p>

+
+<p class="center"><strong>COLOR PROPORTIONS</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para28" id="para28"></a></p>
+<p>28. But to arrive at proportions we must reduce the circular table to a
+geometrical table. We must straighten out the lines so that the exact
+proportions are apparent. We need not confuse the reader by mathematics,
+but to establish our theory we produce the <a href="#Page_15">Diagram IA</a>, and it will be
+here seen that the relative proportions existing in the segments of the
+circles have been observed in the triangles.</p>
+
+<p>Thus we have thirty-two right-angled triangles.</p>
+
+<p>Sage occupies fourteen-thirty-seconds of the entire composition; slate
+occupies five-thirty-seconds; citrine, five-thirty-seconds; green,
+six-thirty-seconds; blue, one-thirty-second; yellow, one-thirty-second;
+and these colors, to observe the proper harmony of analogy in a room,
+should be used in the proportions above indicated.</p>
+
+<p>Sage should be in the preponderance; citrine and slate should occupy
+nearly one-sixth of the entire composition, green about one-fifth, and
+the whole should be picked out with touches of sharp blue and sharp
+yellow, representing each one-thirty-second.</p>
+
+<p>Let us take, for instance, a room that is in white woodwork, and apply
+the sage to the walls and the slate to the floor, and lighten the sage
+with citrine
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_17" id="Page_17">[Pg 17]</a></span>
+and lighten the slate with violet, and intersperse orange
+and green in a way permitted by the proportions at our command. When the
+work is completed we find a harmony of analogy which can be then
+relieved by touches of the primitive colors, blue and yellow, in the
+proportions shown.</p>

+<p>30. We do not wish to be understood as stating that the work of the
+colorist is solely mechanical; but we would emphasize that the
+influences of color are very largely the result of studied proportions.
+The basis upon which one operates must be soundly constructed upon the
+theory of scale, and scale is mechanically determined. If red is
+lightened by the addition of white, or darkened by the addition of
+black, it is removed to another scale, and can only harmonize by
+contrast with its complement by adding to green the same amount of white
+or black that has changed the character of the red, and this should be
+mathematically accurate.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para31" id="para31"></a></p>
+<p>31. To place white by the side of a color heightens or intensifies the
+tone of that color. To put black beside a color has the opposite effect.
+It weakens the color. Every woman looks better in white, hence white is
+the universal wedding gown, the universal party dress for children, and,
+wherever practical, the universal Summer dress for adults as well. White
+is worn universally by men and women next to the face, in collars or in
+neckwear, and the reason for it is that the contiguous white intensifies
+whatever color they may possess. Black, on the other hand, lessens the
+color or lowers its tone.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para32" id="para32"></a></p>
+<p>32. Gray is a medium between the two. While it renders an adjacent color
+less brilliant, it takes to itself at the same time a tint that is a
+complement of that adjacent color. In other words, gray by the side of
+green appears faintly pinkish.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para33" id="para33"></a></p>
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_20" id="Page_20">[Pg 20]</a></span>
+33. Black is always desirable as an associate with luminous colors.
+Black does not associate as well with two colors, one of which is
+luminous and the other sombre, as when associated with two luminous
+colors.</p>

+<p style="margin-left: 20%; margin-right: 20%;">As these twenty-one sections are arranged, one has the layout for a suite of seven
+rooms; following the top line across in a light scale, the harmony is complete; following
+the center line across in a normal, the harmony is complete; so also with the bottom

+close to repeats&mdash;red, russet, red, for instance; violet, violet, violet; blue, slate, blue;
+green, green, green; yellow, citrine, yellow; orange, orange, orange. To the colorist the
+combinations here suggested are full of inspiration.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p><a name="para34" id="para34"></a></p>
+<p>34. The harmony of analogy is a subject that is little understood. It
+may be color sequence, progression, development or succession.</p>
+
+<p>Thus we may combine red, green and blue by starting with crimson and
+maintaining the following
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_23" id="Page_23">[Pg 23]</a></span>
+sequence: Crimson, red, scarlet, orange,
+yellow, greenish yellow, green, bluish green, blue, violet, and with
+added red get back to crimson.</p>
+
+<p>A room or a series of rooms may run to all colors and be still a harmony
+of analogy if the sequence or succession is gradual.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para35" id="para35"></a></p>
+<p>35. No more delightful harmonies can be imagined than those provided by
+nature. One may start with the brown of the earth and run into several
+shades of green, and from that touch upon yellow, and from yellow to
+orange, and from orange to red, and red to violet, and violet to the
+blue of the sky. Or one may follow the colorings and the proportion of
+colorings in flora and never go astray. (See <a href="#para22">&para; 22.</a>)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para36" id="para36"></a></p>
+<p>36. In the application of color to the home nothing is more pleasing
+than the harmony of sequence; the coloring of all rooms must be in
+sympathy with contiguous rooms. (<a href="#Page_26">Diagram VII</a>.)
+(See <a href="#para34">&para; 34</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para37" id="para37"></a></p>
+<p>37. All rooms are subject to the influence of a north or a south light,
+or much or little light, and the colorings must be considered
+accordingly. The ceiling and the upper parts of a wall require more pale
+colors where more light is needed. On the floor, however, where the
+greatest light falls, a little black may be added to soften the tone.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para38" id="para38"></a></p>
+<p>38. Red and green are sharply contrasting colors; violet and yellow and
+blue and orange sharply contrast, and while their combinations may be
+used in adjoining
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_24" id="Page_24">[Pg 24]</a></span>
+rooms, it will be seen that in <a href="#Page_21">Diagram IV</a> these
+contrasting tones are not in contact, but by their arrangement form
+analogies of contrast combinations.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para39" id="para39"></a></p>
+<p>39. Yellow, orange, red, violet, blue and green are related; orange,
+russet, violet, slate, green and citrine are related; red, violet, blue,
+green, yellow and orange are related. Viewing the ceilings, the
+side-walls or the floor, there is the harmony of progression that we
+observe in the tinting of a flower. Viewed collectively the harmony is
+the same.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para40" id="para40"></a></p>
+<p>40. To illustrate further our point we would take the ceiling line. We
+start with yellow, a primary color; orange possesses yellow; orange
+likewise possesses red, the adjoining color; violet possesses red, and
+it likewise possesses blue. On the side-wall, russet possesses orange,
+and it also possesses violet; it is the tertiary color made of these two
+secondaries. Slate is made of green and violet, and is thus also related
+to citrine.</p>
+
+<p>We do not wish it understood that these colors are to be applied flat,
+but simply in the predominating expression. (See <a href="#para27">&para; 27</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para41" id="para41"></a></p>
+<p>41. The value of the diagram is obvious when one considers that in no
+particular is there a break in the sequence; but if we wish a harmony of
+analogy in a room, or a harmony of related parts, and wish the adjoining
+room to be in absolute contrast, we simply adopt the red, violet and
+blue for one room, and the green, citrine and orange for another; or the orange,
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_25" id="Page_25">[Pg 25]</a></span>
+russet and violet for one room, and the blue, green and yellow
+for the other. If, however, the sequence of color is desirable where we
+move from one apartment to another, and the eye is pleased by a gradual
+changing color, we can adopt any of these combinations in the order as
+presented.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para42" id="para42"></a></p>
+<p>42. A vital point in the use of color, regarded usually with
+indifference or totally misunderstood, is the Unity of Composition to be
+preserved in the treatment of a series of <em>floors</em> in a house; for on
+each floor of a house the conditions of light vary. As we ascend the
+stairs we find each floor requires an altered treatment, because of the
+added light given from the skylight. (See <a href="#para37">&para; 37</a>.) Moreover, in the
+arrangement of a floor the relation of one room to another is frequently
+so influential that no one room should be treated without due
+consideration to the adjacent apartment. (See <a href="#Page_26">Diagram VIII</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>Too frequently the whole question of color is dismissed when the matter
+of north or south exposure is discovered, but the north room on the
+lower floor of a house is by no means so well lighted as the north room
+of the fourth or fifth floor, and the scale of color which would lend
+warmth to such a room would be weak in a more exposed apartment.
+(See <a href="#para30">&para; 30</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para43" id="para43"></a></p>
+<p>43. Where the artist has but one room to consider there is little scope
+for his application of color knowledge. He must frequently compromise to
+meet the conditions. But presuming that he must treat a floor
+through, he should adopt a Unity which will apply harmoniously to all
+the rooms and hallways.</p>

+moderate the direct glare of a sunny exposure or brighten the
+cheerlessness of a north light, they will also form a composition that
+pleases when seen from a point of common observation.</p>
+
+<p>45. On the upper floors the scale of color should be gradually softened,
+for the yellow or ivory tints that are pleasing on the first floor would
+be harsh and glaring where there is greater light. Exterior conditions
+must be borne always in mind.</p>
+
+<p>46. Recalling that the primary colors are yellow, red and blue, and that
+the secondary colors are orange, violet and green, and that the tertiary
+colors are russet, slate and citrine, all with many tints and shades,
+let us arrange a series of five rooms seriatim, so treating ceiling,
+side-wall and floor (See <a href="#Page_27">Diagram IX</a>) that in passing from one room to
+another they will be in sequence of color harmony&mdash;each complete from
+floor to ceiling and all in harmony along the ceiling lines, the wall
+lines and the floor lines.</p>
+
+<p>Let us take the suite of rooms suggested in <a href="#Page_27">Diagram IX</a>. We must consider
+desirable colorings in all of the rooms to be treated, and so far as
+possible adjust the sequence of treatments, as shown in <a href="#Page_26">Diagram VIII</a>, so
+that the approach to each room will be in harmonious order as viewed
+from any room. We have five rooms to treat. The library happens to be
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_29" id="Page_29">[Pg 29]</a></span>
+on the north side, hence we wish to treat it in colorings that supply
+the deficiency of sunshine. The hallway is rather dark. The living-room
+has only one window, and requires more warmth of color than the
+billiard-room and dining-room, which being sunshiny can be treated in
+more sombre tones. Therefore we select combination 6 for the hallway.
+The one room on the right we treat in No. 1. The rooms on the left we
+treat in Nos. 5, 4 and 3. We have, therefore, as we stand in room No. 6,
+treated in green, citrine and orange, a view to the right of yellow,
+orange and red, which is in harmonious juxtaposition. To the left we
+have a glimpse of rooms, the floors of which adjoining the orange floor
+of the entrance hall, are yellow, green and blue. The wall spaces
+adjoining the citrine wall space of the hall treatment are green, slate
+and violet. The frieze lines adjoining the green of the hall treatment
+are blue, violet and red&mdash;all juxtaposed harmonies. The floors of all
+rooms are of one deep scale; the walls lighter scale; the friezes and
+ceiling still lighter. If viewed from room 4 the harmonies are equally
+effective.</p>
+
+<p>47. <a href="#Page_26">Diagram VII</a> is useful for many reasons. In its present shape it
+shows the harmonies of analogy or related parts. To arrange harmonies of
+contrast, combine the colors of the first room with the fourth room, the
+colors of the second room with the fifth room, the colors of the third
+room with the sixth room. (See <a href="#para37">&para; 37</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>HARMONIES FOR THE ROOM</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para48" id="para48"></a></p>
+<p>48. The floor should usually enter into the color
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_30" id="Page_30">[Pg 30]</a></span>
+scheme as the low
+note in the scale. It is the background for the furniture, and should be
+deeper than the dado or wainscoting. The wood trims&mdash;baseboard, doors,
+plate-rails, and everything of that character, except the picture
+molding&mdash;should be like the woodwork of the furniture. This brings the
+woodwork into contrast with the wainscoting (unless the wainscoting be
+wood) and into harmony with the side-walls, although the degree of
+harmony is far removed. Thus, if the woodwork of the furniture is
+mahogany, the wainscoting green, the side-walls pink and gray, we would
+find the window trims of mahogany, or imitation mahogany, in harmony
+with the side-walls. (See <a href="#para51">&para; 51 and &para; 52</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para49" id="para49"></a></p>
+<p>49. I would lay down the rule that the wood trims of a room should
+harmonize by analogy with the side-walls where such walls are provided
+with a contrasting wainscoting; but if there is no wainscoting, or the
+wainscoting be also of wood, then the wood trims and furniture contrast
+with the side-wall.</p>
+
+<p>Substitute green side-wall for the pink, <a href="#para48">&para; 48</a>.</p>
+
+<p>White woodwork is always permissible. Study <a href="#Page_22">Diagram VI</a> on page 22.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para50" id="para50"></a></p>
+<p>50. The picture molding may harmonize with the ceiling. Indeed, a white
+picture molding frequently is better than one matching the general
+woodwork (See <a href="#para37">&para; 37</a>); a dark upper molding, moreover, reduces the
+apparent size of a room.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para51" id="para51"></a></p>
+<p>51. Where black furniture is used, or gold
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_31" id="Page_31">[Pg 31]</a></span>
+furniture, it will of course
+be understood that the wood trims shall not be black or gold; but so
+long as they are in harmony, that will be sufficient. White wood trims
+are nearly always permissible as a substitute for colored wood.</p>
+
+<p>52. Tones of gray with soft colorings (See <a href="#para32">&para; 32</a>), are always safe.</p>
+
+<p>To summarize (Note <a href="#para37">&para; 37</a>):</p>
+
+<p><a name="para53" id="para53"></a></p>
+<p>53. In harmonies of contrast the side-walls, the furniture woodwork,
+wood trimming, cove, ceiling and the curtains should be related.</p>
+
+<p>54. The rugs, frieze, wainscoting or dado, furniture upholsterings and
+the curtain borders should be related. (See <a href="#para49">&para; 49</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>55. If the curtains have no borders, then the curtains contrast with the
+wood trims.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para56" id="para56"></a></p>
+<p>56. Remember always cove and ceiling should be the palest tint of the
+side-wall color, and the rug should be of the deepest contrast to the
+side-wall, in harmony with the wainscoting, if there is a wainscoting.
+Remember, also, that the colors here prescribed are never to be of the
+same scale. The rug or carpet is of the deepest, and the ceiling of the
+palest. While certain colors are to contrast, they are not to contrast
+in the same scale. (See <a href="#para37">&para; 37</a> and <a href="#para40">&para; 40</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>57. If we find that the tone of color of the wainscoting, for instance,
+is a bluish green, the side-wall should be of a reddish orange; for the
+reason that if green contrasts with red, and if blue contrasts with
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_32" id="Page_32">[Pg 32]</a></span>
+orange, a bluish green would contrast with a reddish orange.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para58" id="para58"></a></p>
+<p>58. Exception to <a href="#para56">&para; 56</a>. Only large or well-proportioned rooms can stand
+the diminishing or reduction effects of contrast. In low ceiling rooms,
+leave out the contrasting frieze, and let border, cornice and ceiling be
+in receding colors. (See <a href="#para89">&para; 89</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para59" id="para59"></a></p>
+<p>59. We all know that a northern exposure gives a room a deficiency of
+sunlight, and the wall treatment should supply this. A southern room, on
+the other hand, gives so much sunlight that counteracting wall
+treatments in cold color are permissible.</p>
+
+<p>60. In the color treatment of a room one has either to adopt a harmony
+of analogy or a harmony of contrast, and this is a matter which depends
+upon so many conditions that it should be carefully considered.
+(See <a href="#para88">&para; 88</a> and <a href="#para89">&para; 89</a>.) Where a plate-rail is used one must remember that a great
+deal of color may be furnished by the bric-&agrave;-brac, and that the wall
+behind this plate-rail should be of a color in contrast to the contents
+of the plate-rail.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para61" id="para61"></a></p>
+<p>61. When we follow a scheme of <em>contrast</em> the borders should be usually
+complements, and if the reader has studied our diagram he will very
+readily understand how to determine the exact complementary color.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>WALL PROPORTIONS</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para62" id="para62"></a></p>
+<p>62. The wainscoting or dado should be the same as the top border or
+frieze, but of a darker tone. The intermixture of white or black is
+always permissible;
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_33" id="Page_33">[Pg 33]</a></span>
+thus a paper as a side-wall might have as its
+frieze the complementary coloring with more white, while the wainscoting
+or dado should be the complementary with black added.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para63" id="para63"></a></p>
+<p>63. The cornice should be lighter than the border, and its members may
+show several tints, with the ceiling lighter still. (See <a href="#para92">&para; 92</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para64" id="para64"></a></p>
+<p>64. As a rule the color of the chair coverings should be the
+complementary of the side-walls, and the color of the furniture frames
+should be complementary to the wainscoting; so by following this rule we
+find that the wainscoting serves as a contrasting background to the
+chair frame.</p>
+
+<p>65. Let us imagine a room wherein the side-walls are of a reddish tint;
+the wainscoting, being a complementary color, is of a greenish cast. The
+furniture is of mahogany, and in contrast to the wainscoting, while the
+chair covering, being greenish in contrast to the chair frame, is also
+in contrast to the side-wall. Here we have, then, the color relations of
+side-wall, wainscoting, furniture-frames and covering; but it is
+undesirable that these tones should be in the same scale. (See <a href="#para62">&para; 62</a> and
+<a href="#para92">&para; 92</a>, also tables pages <a href="#Page_42">42 and 43.</a>)</p>

+<p>66. In small rooms harmonies of contrast are unsafe, because contrasts
+must involve advancing colors, which make a room look smaller. (See <a href="#para86">&para; 86</a>
+and <a href="#para90">&para; 90</a>.) Harmonies of analogy are far better; and as frieze,
+wainscoting and dado are not recommended in the small room, we suggest
+that the furniture woodwork and the wood trims should be of one color
+note, unless it is desired that the wood trims should be white; and that
+the side-walls, curtains and chair upholsterings should be of a note in
+some degree related and of receding color, picked out with just a touch
+of contrasting color. (See <a href="#para90">&para; 90 and &para; 91</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>This contrasting color may be introduced in the accessories, the
+pictures, bric-&agrave;-brac, flowers (natural or artificial) or books.</p>

+
+<p class="center">(SEE CHART)</p>
+
+<p>On the preceding pages we present a quick-reference chart of rules that
+should be followed in furnishing rooms under various conditions of Light
+and Proportion.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 10em;">
+67. A large room with high ceiling and well lighted.<br />
+68. A large room with low ceiling and well lighted.<br />
+69. A large room with high ceiling and poorly lighted.<br />
+70. A large room with low ceiling and poorly lighted.<br />
+71. A small room with high ceiling and well lighted.<br />
+72. A small room with low ceiling and well lighted.<br />
+73. A small room with high ceiling and poorly lighted.<br />
+74. A small room with low ceiling and poorly lighted.</p>
+
+<p>There are two considerations to bear uppermost in mind: Proportions
+affected by Color and Proportions affected by Design.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para75" id="para75"></a></p>
+<p>75. It is easily understood that a large room may be safely furnished
+with large pieces of furniture, but where there is a wide expanse of
+floor space care must be exercised to secure broken heights: In a
+high-ceilinged room the furniture must not be all high; in a
+low-ceilinged room the furniture must not be all low.</p>
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_38" id="Page_38">[Pg 38]</a></span>
+Avoid straight line effects in the furniture heights and in the
+wall-paper, which, if in pronounced patterns, must balance in
+conspicuous wall members and show the broken junctures or bad matchings
+in inconspicuous or obscure corners.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>COLORS THAT GIVE SIZE TO A ROOM</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para76" id="para76"></a></p>
+<p>76. The wall and fabric designs must be of a size proportionate to the
+size of the room. The color treatment of a well-lighted room must be
+subdued to offset the glare of the natural illumination, and the natural
+illumination be subdued to soften the color treatment; glare must be
+avoided.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para77" id="para77"></a></p>
+<p>77. Advancing colors are colors which contain red or yellow in the
+ascendancy; <em>receding</em> colors are those which contain blue in the
+ascendancy. Green in its purity, being half yellow and half blue, is
+almost neutral. In the same way violet, being made up of half red and
+half blue, is theoretically neutral, although the blue tone is usually
+more assertive than the red and makes the color recede. Any color or hue
+possesses advancing or receding qualities according to the ascendancy of
+red, blue or yellow in its composition.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para78" id="para78"></a></p>
+<p>78. Orange is an advancing color; so also is violet in the shades
+approaching red; green in the shades approaching yellow.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para79" id="para79"></a></p>
+<p>79. Of the tertiary colors russet is an advancing color, because while
+it contains some blue in the violet of its composition, it contains a
+preponderance of red and orange.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_39" id="Page_39">[Pg 39]</a></span></p>
+<p class="center"><strong>ADVANCING AND RECEDING COLORS</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para80" id="para80"></a></p>
+<p>80. Citrine is an advancing color, because while it contains some blue
+in the green of its composition, it contains a preponderance of yellow
+and orange; slate is a receding color, because while it contains some
+yellow in the green of its composition, it contains a preponderance of
+blue; in the same way plum may be regarded as an advancing color,
+because of its preponderance of red; buff is an advancing color, because
+of its preponderance of yellow; sage is a receding color, because of its
+preponderance of blue.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para81" id="para81"></a></p>
+<p>81. The carpet should always be in the low tone, and in a small room a
+bordered carpet should be always tabooed. So also should one avoid the
+use of one rug so placed that a border of woodwork shows around it,
+because this gives the border effect and makes a small floor space look
+still smaller. Better use small rugs. The use of a lot of narrow rugs
+lengthwise along a narrow room will make the room look all the narrower,
+but the same rugs placed crosswise would make a room look wider.</p>
+
+<p>The diagrams which we have prepared will give even the man who
+understands it all a quicker grasp of the points involved.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para82" id="para82"></a></p>
+<p>82. Width effect and distance effect are obtained best by arranging the
+smaller pieces at the farthest points.</p>
+
+<p>83. It is the same with pictures. While a room should be balanced, and
+the pictures placed in a manner to give this result, it is best, where
+possible, to
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_40" id="Page_40">[Pg 40]</a></span>
+keep the larger pictures, larger effects, always near the
+eye. The crowding of large pieces at the farthest point diminishes the
+apparent size of the room.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>FLOOR TREATMENTS</strong></p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 500px;">
+<img src="images/img40.png" width="500" height="297" alt="floor rug" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p><a name="para84" id="para84"></a></p>
+<p>84. Continuous design in ceiling or carpet weakens the size effect;
+hence rugs which break the continuity by being laid across the room
+instead of lengthwise are preferable. (See Diagrams and <a href="#para81">&para; 81</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para85" id="para85"></a></p>
+<p>85. It is a safe rule to do a small or narrow room in harmonies of
+analogy or related colors, colors of a light tone and of receding
+character. Apart from any effect which color may possess decoratively or
+pictorially, its value cannot be overestimated in its application to the
+laws of proportion.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_41" id="Page_41">[Pg 41]</a></span></p>
+
+<div class="figcenter" style="width: 650px;">
+<img src="images/img41.png" width="650" height="385" alt="floor rugs" title="" />
+</div>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p><a name="para86" id="para86"></a></p>
+<p>86. Borders may be safely used on the wall or on the carpet of any large
+room with high ceiling, but wall friezes should be avoided where the
+ceilings are low, for they foreshorten the height effect.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para87" id="para87"></a></p>
+<p>87. We would avoid borders on the floor of a small room to make it look
+larger, and we would use wide borders in a large room with a low ceiling
+so that the floor may be foreshortened.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para88" id="para88"></a></p>
+<p>88. One may utilize in a large, poorly lighted room masses of luminous
+colors to give artificial sunlight to the room deficient therein, but in
+the small, poorly lighted room this treatment should be avoided.</p>

+<p>It is impossible to tabulate directions for using color without an
+understanding of the conditions, the size, light and height of a room.
+(See pages <a href="#Page_34">34 and 35</a>.) The above tables relate only to normal
+conditions.</p>
+
+<p>White woodwork can be used effectively in the trims of a room and give
+greater light and size. The darker the wood trims the smaller the room
+appears. We have left out of consideration the window treatments which,
+as a rule, should be of white lace, perhaps overdraped in colored
+stuffs. If the room is poorly lighted, it is obviously undesirable to
+cut off any light from the window by even laces; the curtains,
+therefore, in a poorly lighted room should be draped back. Colored
+laces, grenadines or madras stuffs are frequently used to give period
+style or color tone, and
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_43" id="Page_43">[Pg 43]</a></span>
+wherever they are used, such curtains should
+harmonize with the wall. So also with the overdraperies to the lace
+curtains.</p>
+

+<p>89. Luminous or advancing colors make a small room look all the smaller;
+therefore in small rooms we suggest the use of white woodwork, and in
+the color treatment we would avoid contrasts, but would suggest
+harmonies of analogy in receding colors, soft grays, greens and blues.
+These are not luminous colors and will make a small room look the
+larger, while the white will give light effects, and if the room appears
+a trifle somber it can be easily relieved by
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_44" id="Page_44">[Pg 44]</a></span>
+the bright colors of the
+bric-&agrave;-brac and by a touch of gold here and there on the wall.
+(See <a href="#para66">&para; 66</a> and <a href="#para85">&para; 85</a>.)</p>

+<p>90. There are cases where a small room has a northern exposure, and
+while apparently expedient to treat such a room in warm colors to supply
+the deficiency of sunlight, such a course would make a room look
+smaller.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para91" id="para91"></a></p>
+<p>91. Under the circumstances treat the room in light hues, gray
+preferred, and get the deficiency of sunlight through some warm isolated
+details and in the lace curtains.</p>

+
+<p class="center"><strong>THE WALL THE KEYNOTE COLOR</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para92" id="para92"></a></p>
+<p>92. Our theory of color as applied to room furnishings provides always
+that the side-wall is the keynote and this keynote is usually fixed for
+practical reasons in sympathy with the furniture; above to the ceiling&#8217;s
+center the note ascends and below to the floor center it descends; it
+goes into tints as it ascends and into deeper shades of gray and brown
+as it descends.</p>
+
+<p>If, for instance, blue is the keynote, by adding black you have drabs,
+slates or grays for the floor, while if the keynote be red you have
+&eacute;crus and browns for the floor light or gray, according to the color
+scale of the keynote.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para93" id="para93"></a></p>
+<p>93. It must be understood that in designating a color we do not mean
+that it shall be solid or pure, but merely that it prevails. (See <a href="#para29">&para; 29</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>A side-wall may be treated in several colors, but as long as orange
+prevails, it follows the conditions of
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_45" id="Page_45">[Pg 45]</a></span>
+the combination, pages <a href="#Page_42">42 and 43</a>. The factors included in the line
+designated A are all of one color
+family. The factors indicated by B are also family colors. It will be
+seen that the A or B colors taken by themselves form <span class="smcap">harmonies of
+analogy</span>; it is only by combining the A&#8217;s with the B&#8217;s that we have
+<span class="smcap">harmonies of contrast</span>.</p>
+
+<p>If a room is to be done in harmonies of analogy, use the A colors alone
+or the B colors alone, but never A and B together.</p>

+
+<p class="center"><strong>THE PSYCHOLOGY OF COLOR</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para94" id="para94"></a></p>
+<p>94. Whatever may be the charm conveyed by design there is a reason for
+it. We can analyze it.</p>
+
+<p>It has an inherent quality of beauty or historic interest, and there is
+a definite and distinct reason for our liking it.</p>
+
+<p>But the effect of color is exciting or disturbing, tranquilizing or
+pleasing, inexplicable and inexpressible, affecting the senses like an
+appeal to the passions or the appetite. One might as well explain the
+love of sport, literature, art or vice. The sense of color is a nerve
+sense, and this sense varies in the individual. We know that colors
+which are strongest in direct sun rays, like red and orange, arouse the
+normal senses, while the blues and violets quiet.</p>
+
+<p>Nature provides vast fields of green because favorable in its effects
+upon humanity. Experiments prove that men of extreme sensibility exposed
+to the influences of red light finally show excitement which gives
+muscular development fifty per cent. in excess of the power possessed by
+the same subject when
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_46" id="Page_46">[Pg 46]</a></span>
+exposed for the same period under the influences
+of blue light.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>TO DETERMINE THE COLOR SENSE</strong></p>
+
+<p>Color, like music, while subjected to positive rules of harmony, appeals
+to natures according to the responsiveness of their nerve sense, and the
+practical decorator in dealing with a customer should discover at the
+outstart the character of that nerve sense. Some natures respond to the
+normal colors, barbaric colors. Some respond to the softer tints and are
+disturbed by the sharper tones. A dulled sense requires sharp contrasts;
+a quickened sense is satisfied with the soft gray tones. Apart from any
+question of propriety or environment the individual taste for color must
+be determined before the individual taste can be pleased.</p>
+
+<p>A demonstration of four examples in color may serve the purpose of
+determining one&#8217;s color sense.</p>
+
+<p>First. Combinations of normal primary and secondary colors, (<em>a</em>)
+arranged in contrasts, (<em>b</em>) in analogies.</p>
+
+<p>Second. Combinations of tones of the above colors, (<em>a</em>) arranged in
+contrasts, (<em>b</em>) in analogies.</p>
+
+<p>Third. Combinations of tints of the above colors, (<em>a</em>) arranged in
+contrasts, (<em>b</em>) in analogies.</p>
+
+<p>Fourth. Combinations of the gray (tertiary) tones of the above colors,
+(<em>a</em>) arranged in contrasts, (<em>b</em>) in analogies.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para95" id="para95"></a></p>
+<p>95. Do not allow your personal color-sympathies to dominate your work.
+All colors have their usefulness, for there are occasions when it is
+proper they
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_47" id="Page_47">[Pg 47]</a></span>
+should be used, apart from any question of harmony; one
+must consider always the uses of colors, the lights, and the purpose of
+the room under treatment.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para96" id="para96"></a></p>
+<p>96. Nature gives to the dark forest depths great brilliancy of
+floriculture, and dark-skinned people indulge unconsciously the same
+bright scale of color. But as we come out of the forest and advance in
+civilization we use barbaric colorings more discriminately.</p>
+
+<p>97. We employ gold, orange or yellow for the north room not for inherent
+beauty, but for the sense of warmth which they convey to an atmosphere
+chilled by the absence of sunlight. We employ receding colors in a small
+room that the room may look larger. We employ cold colors in a sunny
+room, especially in the summer home, for reasons psychological rather
+than &aelig;sthetic.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>PERIOD USES OF COLOR</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para98" id="para98"></a></p>
+<p>98. If our furniture is white and gold, it is clearly evident that the
+colorings of a room should be soft and harmonious. If we adopt the dark
+teakwood of India or the deep brown of Flanders, our color scheme again
+changes. The preponderance of white in Colonial rooms was due to
+architectural conditions. White illuminates; and in the days when our
+ceilings were no higher than seven and a half feet, and our windows were
+small, the room needed an artificial light, and white supplied this.</p>
+
+<p>99. In furnishing an Empire room, the decorators have, little by little,
+led themselves to believe that
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_48" id="Page_48">[Pg 48]</a></span>
+what is known as Empire green is a
+distinct shade of green. On the contrary, green was used in the period
+of the Empire simply because it was in pleasing contrast with the
+mahogany and brass so much used. If the mahogany is dark, a dark green
+is desirable; if light, a light green.</p>
+
+<p>100. Egyptian decoration was full of gold and brilliant coloring, and a
+popular form of combination was the triad form:</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 15em;">
+Black, yellow and red.<br />
+Red, blue and white.<br />
+Dark blue, light blue and white.<br />
+Cream color, blue and black.<br />
+Dark red, medium yellow and blue.</p>
+
+<p>101. The Greek decorators, who painted in fresco, used white, red, blue,
+yellow and black. Natural marbles were much used in green and red and
+alabaster, and bronze, gold and silver.</p>
+
+<p>We see the flat colors of the Greek, Etruscan and Pompeiian age and we
+imagine they are typical of the period, but we must consider that the
+examples of that period which we now possess are faded and emasculated,
+and that the more authentic the example, the more aged it is, and hence
+the more weakened in color character.</p>
+
+<p>The Greeks loved color, and their embroideries were in gold and blue and
+Tyrian purple.</p>
+
+<p>Roman coloring was but a continuance of the Greek, characterized by dark
+and rich backgrounds, which were frequently black, red or deep yellow and
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_49" id="Page_49">[Pg 49]</a></span>
+dark blue, on which figures and landscapes, or animals, or groups
+from still life, were executed in bright colorings of powerful
+contrasts. Black and white were used, and later, when the Byzantine
+artists and craftsmen found their way to Western Italy, they spread this
+love of bold coloring, so that at the dawn of the Renaissance we find a
+return to the Greek and Roman coloring, which, however, was modified in
+England, Germany and Flanders, according to temperamental conditions.</p>
+
+<p>102. We find, for instance, some forms of Florentine decoration, full of
+yellow, red-yellow, blue-greens and light slate blues. Botticelli used
+whites, creams, reds and citrine, with umber tones heightened by gold,
+and if we examine carefully the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Century
+Italian brocades which are preserved in the museums, we discover a great
+preponderance of yellow-green as an ornament on dark violet, or light
+olive green on dark blue, or dull orange on crimson brown.</p>
+
+<p>In some of the richest early Italian fabrics we find:</p>
+
+<div class="blockquot">
+<p>Purple and sage-green ornaments on indigo ground; outlines in gold.</p>
+
+<p>Dull crimson, pale blue and chrome yellow ornaments on dark gray
+ground.</p>
+
+<p>Pale yellow-green ornaments on deep amber ground.</p>
+
+<p>Dark blue-green and light greenish-yellow ornaments on deep crimson
+ground.</p>
+
+<p>Pale greenish-blue ornaments on dark gray-blue ground, with white
+and gold picked out in small quantities.</p>
+
+<p>Emerald green and dull orange ornaments on dark gray-green ground
+outlined in gold.</p></div>
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_50" id="Page_50">[Pg 50]</a></span></p>
+<p>103. The French Renaissance takes inspiration from the Roman and Greek.</p>
+
+<p>The Louis XIV is a development of the Renaissance, with a conspicuous
+use of gold.</p>
+
+<p>The Louis XV is an elaboration along the same lines.</p>
+
+<p>The Louis XVI is a simplification and a return to the classic.</p>
+
+<p>The Georgian is largely Roman and Pompeiian.</p>
+
+<p>104. The Adam style was taken directly from the Pompeiian, but in most
+cases, instead of having the Pompeiian solid color background with
+design lightly executed, the background is in the light color, and the
+design dark. To follow strictly the Pompeiian palace style would be too
+garish in our modern circumscribed environment.</p>
+
+<p>105. It is a nice psychological problem to decorate the house in a way
+to give true balance to the &aelig;sthetic sense. No matter how great one&#8217;s
+admiration for a thing, there is always a final point of satiety at
+which the desire needs rest or balance. A woman may love flowers, for
+example, but in the season of flowers, when all nature supplies an
+over-abundance, the visual sense becomes satiated, and the house
+interior that is furnished in cool tints and two-tones gives positive
+relief.</p>
+
+<p>106. On the other hand, floral decorations in the home are the balance
+needed to the mind that craves them during the Winter period when there
+is a lack of color without.</p>

+<p>107. We very often notice a room which has been carefully carried out
+but is utterly lacking in charm. The color seems right, and, considered
+in detail, the furniture and the furnishings are appropriate, but the
+room lacks effectiveness.</p>
+
+<p>It is uninteresting.</p>
+
+<p>It is like a doll face that is, perhaps, perfect in detail, but utterly
+devoid of <span class="smcap">expression</span>.</p>
+
+<p>The artist who paints a portrait is a failure without the ability to
+give expression: hence in
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_52" id="Page_52">[Pg 52]</a></span>

+arched roofs have the same expression that the &ldquo;long face&rdquo; carries.</p>

+
+<p><a name="para109" id="para109"></a></p>
+<p>109. In serious decorations (libraries, studies, church or office work)
+straight lines are used; curtains are gathered in plaits so that the
+sags and drapes are all out of them; they are drawn. It is the same when
+we say of a person: &ldquo;He looks serious, his face is drawn; it is full of
+lines.&rdquo;</p>
+
+<p>110. The observation, &ldquo;a broad smile on his face,&rdquo;
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_53" id="Page_53">[Pg 53]</a></span>
+means literally just
+that; the lines extend outward and upward, giving an expression of

+<p>111. A doorway looks wider that has at the top a drapery which crosses
+in one complete curved sweep. A side-wall is larger apparently if along
+the frieze line long, wide loops or festoons are arranged. The same wall
+is more contracted and higher if treated in arrow-point forms of design.</p>

+height of a room; horizontal lines shorten the apparent height of the
+ceiling and lengthen the width of the room. (See exceptions, <a href="#para119">&para; 119</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>These straight lines may be used where extremes are needed. (See pages
+<a href="#Page_61">61</a> and <a href="#Page_63">63</a>.)</p>

+out the woodwork of a room, every stained glass window maker, should
+appreciate one fact: A line which is finished at the top or
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_55" id="Page_55">[Pg 55]</a></span>bottom, or
+both, with acute angles appears longer than the line that is finished
+top and bottom with an obtuse or right angle. It is the same with the
+finish of a wall frieze.</p>
+
+<p>If the wall frieze ends abruptly (<a href="#Page_57">Illustration A</a> on page 57), it is
+foreshortened; if it is finished by angles (<a href="#Page_57">Illustration B</a>), the height
+of the room is apparently greater. (See the illustration on page <a href="#Page_51">51</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para114" id="para114"></a></p>
+<p>114. It is the same way with curves; given two lines of equal length and

+<p>116. The use of arches should be studied. A space that is arched looks
+wider than it actually is, for the eye unconsciously follows the lines
+of the arch, and a distance or width effect is the result. The same
+space treated with a straight line is quickly bridged. The same space
+treated with lines that come to an angle looks narrower, for the reason
+that the eye becomes focused by the apex of the angle, and a height
+effect, not a breadth effect, is the result. (See page <a href="#Page_57">57</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para117" id="para117"></a></p>
+<p>117. This illusion is best shown in the illustrations of the parallel
+lines that are crossed diagonally, with the result that the lines no
+longer look parallel because of the angles. Nevertheless, they are
+parallel, and the lines running diagonally at the bottom of this page
+are also parallel.</p>
+
+<p>We present two practical illustrations of illusion in the use of lines.
+(See <a href="#para112">&para; 112</a>.) They represent the side-walls of two rooms of the same

+
+<p><a name="para120" id="para120"></a></p>
+<p>120. In the study of color and its application authorities differ so
+materially that it is not only impossible to reconcile their theories,
+but the different terms used to express color thought create
+inextricable confusion.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para121" id="para121"></a></p>
+<p>121. One authority fixes the neutrals as being black, gray and white;
+another regards them as those hues or tones which lack definite color,
+like quaternaries. Authorities differ, moreover, upon even the
+fundamental principles. Chevreuil selects red, yellow and blue as the
+primaries; Dr. Thomas Young selects red, green and violet. Helmholtz
+selects carmine, pale green and blue-violet; Maxwell scarlet red,
+emerald green and blue-violet; Professor Rood agrees with Maxwell;
+Professor Church, of the Royal Academy of Arts, London, regards the
+primaries as red, green and blue; George Hurst, the English authority,
+fixes upon red, yellow and blue, the Brewsterian theory.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para122" id="para122"></a></p>
+<p>122. One must remember always in studying color that we are treating
+with the material, not with the illusion. We are dealing with pigments,
+not with prismatic phenomena, and it must be obvious that the only three
+primary colors that can be used in a way to produce all other colors are
+red, yellow and blue.</p>
+
+<p>123. Whatever may be the spectrum theories of Sir Isaac Newton, Young or
+Helmholtz, for practical reasons we prefer to follow an authority as
+eminent as Chevreuil, for years the head of the National Gobelin Works
+of France, and a man experienced in the
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_66" id="Page_66">[Pg 66]</a></span>
+practice as well as the theory
+of color. Any effort to fix the character of color and describe it by
+periods and epochs will always prove unsatisfactory, for the reason that
+terms and expressions have changed with every period since the Egyptian,
+4000 B.C.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para124" id="para124"></a></p>
+<p>124. We think we know purple until we discover that the purple of
+royalty, the ermine and purple, the purple of the cardinals&#8217; robes,
+frequently approximated what we now call carmine. Royal purple and
+Venetian blue are mere trade terms. Practical men in the purchase of
+things decorative soon discover that color terms convey only individual
+impressions and no distinctive qualities that may be relied upon; so
+that any effort to fix the color value by periods would be futile. We
+may assume that in the age of oak, mahogany, white and gold or walnut
+furniture, the fabric and wall colors harmonized with the wood colors,
+and to that degree we may fix the period character of color. The moment
+that the tone of the woodwork or the light conditions varied, color
+character varied also.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para125" id="para125"></a></p>
+<p>125. We must also bear well in mind that colors which have come down to
+us as examples of ancient times have been subjected to the changing
+influences of centuries, and have faded and altered. The colors on the
+walls of the historic rooms of European palaces have greatly altered.
+The flat reds and the deadish blues of the Pompeiian frescoes have been
+altered by chemical action during the 1,850 years&#8217; burial under the lava
+of Vesuvius. We are not justified in judging
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_67" id="Page_67">[Pg 67]</a></span>
+of the colors of A.D. 79
+by the restoration-examples in 1900. Hence the mere expressions
+Pompeiian red, Pompeiian blue, can convey no definite, positive meaning.</p>

+<p class="center"><strong>COLOR VOCABULARY</strong></p>
+
+<p>126. In music, a tone which is formed by a certain number of vibrations
+per second is the same the world over, and each and every tone has a
+name; but in color no such standards exist. People have attempted to
+formulate a system by denominating the primary colors, red, yellow and
+blue, respectively as R, Y and B, and the combinations of these colors
+as combinations of letters. For example, red, with varying degrees of
+yellow added, is denominated by the letters R R O, or R O R, or O O R.
+This system tends to confusion, and is inadequate to express tints and
+shades. Various other systems have been devised. Color charts have been
+made, and in each system arbitrary names have been assigned, so that
+each color may be known by one of several names. The difficulty of
+insuring accuracy under these circumstances becomes very evident.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para127" id="para127"></a></p>
+<p>127. In discussing color combinations, one is usually confused because
+the subject is not a tangible expression that can be grasped like the
+sound of a note
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_68" id="Page_68">[Pg 68]</a></span>
+in music. With color charts, every maker has a standard
+of his own and the term &ldquo;red&rdquo; may mean anything within a wide range; a
+yellow-red or a blue-red, the yellow-red perhaps being cherry, the
+blue-red perhaps being carmine. An appreciation of the Harmonies of
+Contrast or Harmonies of Analogy or Relationship is accompanied by great
+confusion because of this lack of standardization.</p>
+
+<p>128. There is only one true standard of color, and that is the standard
+as shown in the prism, and expressed by the spectrum. It is within the
+province of any man to determine the proper relationship of color if he
+starts with the chart we here present. We fix definitely the three
+primary and the three secondary colors, the primaries, red, yellow and
+blue, being those indicated by the heavy black lines; the secondaries,
+orange, green and violet, being indicated by the broad stipple lines.</p>
+
+<p>All other lines are the tertiary or quaternary colors.</p>
+
+<p>If we have clearly in our minds the appearance of the normal red and
+yellow, and clearly in our minds the orange that is made up by combining
+the two, we ought to be able to fix in our imagination the colors that
+come midway between the red and the orange, or the colors that come
+nearer the red or nearer the orange. Let us assume we are to select
+colors in the harmony of <em>contrast</em>. Take a ruler and lay across the
+chart and the contrasting colors are always opposite; the direct
+contrast of red is green because green is
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_69" id="Page_69">[Pg 69]</a></span>
+composed of the other two
+primary colors, yellow and blue; the contrast of blue is orange because
+orange is a combination of the other two primaries, yellow and red; the
+contrast of yellow is violet, a combination of blue and red.</p>
+
+<p>Now, to determine the niceties of distinction, let us take a red that is
+a little off shade, a little yellowish; one must determine in the mind&#8217;s
+eye about how much yellow there is in it and, to determine the true
+contrast, carry your line across from the point which you think is
+represented by the yellowish and you find that it is green with a little
+blue added, or bluish-green.</p>
+
+<p>129. One must also determine the scale of color. The parallel circular
+lines on the chart designate four scales, or four grades, of each color,
+growing lighter by adding white, to the center; as you add more and more
+white the tint becomes more and more light. In determining contrast, be
+careful to stick to your scale. Contrasts, to be in harmony, must be
+colors of the same scale.</p>
+
+<p>130. Harmony of analogy or relationship is clearly expressed in the
+chart. The family relations of red are the things which go with red. We
+may have a harmony of analogy in violet which includes the relations of
+red and blue. We must not attempt to carry the family relationship too
+far. There is a wide range of variety in these combinations of analogy
+because they may include not only all scales of each color from the
+darkest tones to the lightest tints but they include tertiaries and
+quaternaries.</p>
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_70" id="Page_70">[Pg 70]</a></span>
+Each man must establish his own standard, and by establishing it he
+forms unconsciously a very comprehensive understanding of color. It has
+never been possible to print a true colored chart because no two copies
+of the sheet off the press would be alike. A little more ink or a little
+less ink, or a little lighter or a little heavier impression, changes
+the values.</p>
+
+<p>The chart illustrates contrasts of all of the primaries and secondary
+colors and the broken colors or hues. In the same way the tertiary or
+quaternary colors may be arranged, but for convenience we show the
+contrasts as follows:</p>

+131. One who attempts to make color compositions with no more reliable
+guide than taste can expect to accomplish no more than he who in music
+possesses a good ear but no musical training.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para132" id="para132"></a></p>
+<p>132. The note of discord in color is best avoided by an infallible
+guide, as the discord in music is best avoided by thorough training in
+the law of harmony. The color chart on page <a href="#Page_73">73</a> has been so arranged that
+each of the shades is in exact harmony with the shade directly opposite.</p>
+
+<p>133. For example, to ascertain the color that is in harmony with the
+shade denominated Red-Orange, it is necessary simply to lay a ruler
+across the diagram to find the corresponding harmony, which is
+Blue-Green.</p>
+
+<p>134. We know that the primary colors are red, yellow and blue, and that
+the combination of any two of these gives a secondary color. The
+secondary color is the complement of the remaining third color; thus
+yellow and blue form green, and green is the complement or contrasting
+harmony of red. Red and yellow form orange, and orange is the complement
+of blue. Blue and red form violet, and violet is the complement of
+yellow. These are facts we all know. Now, if red is the complement or
+contrasting harmony of green, and yellow contrasts with violet, then red
+with one, two or three degrees of yellow added will contrast with green
+with one, two or three degrees of blue added.</p>
+
+<p>Assume, for example, that a decorator dealing with a red side-wall
+wishes upholsterings in the correct
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_75" id="Page_75">[Pg 75]</a></span>
+shade of green. He knows he has a
+red wall, he knows also that he wishes to use some shade of green, but
+without some fixed standard it is impossible for him to do more than
+approximate the correct shade of green to use. If, however, he could
+compare the red of his wall with his color chart and determine exactly
+which of the many shades of red, or which of the many yellow reds, or
+blue reds, the wall is toned in, it is a simple process to ascertain the
+exact green harmonizing with this red.</p>
+
+<p>The second great use of the color chart is then an infallible guide to
+color harmony, whether analagous or contrasting.</p>

+<p class="center"><strong>ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para135" id="para135"></a></p>
+<p>135. In considering artificial light, we will avoid all efforts to
+analyze the different forms of energy, magnetic energy, electric energy,
+heat energy, mechanical momentum, radiating energy, and deal with result
+rather than with cause and effect. It will be sufficient to state as the
+deduction of the scientist that certain waves or vibrations which affect
+the fibers of the optic nerve are transmitted by the brain into color.
+(<a href="#para3">&para; 3</a>.) Self-luminous bodies are bodies which produce light. Illuminated
+bodies shine by borrowed light, and are distinguished by the different
+amounts and quantities of light which they reflect. A dense cloud which
+appears nearly black when between the observer&#8217;s eye and the sun, owing
+to the degree of density with which it intercepts the light, may become
+brilliantly white when the sun&#8217;s rays fall upon its constituent
+particles, for the light which cannot penetrate the cloud is continually
+reflected to and from the surface of its minute parts. Thus it happens
+that the lower part of a cloud seen against a background of dark
+mountain may appear white, while the upper part may appear dull gray. In
+the alteration of reflection we
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_78" id="Page_78">[Pg 78]</a></span>
+have an alteration of color. A stick of
+sealing wax will show in some positions white reflected light, while in
+other positions we see only the red. A polished plane furnishes one kind
+of reflection, a piece of chalk another.</p>
+
+<p>136. The decorator has for years past been disposed to defer to the
+illuminating engineer in the artificial lighting of a home. But while
+the technical man or engineer may have a knowledge of power and energy,
+he has not studied the decorative value of lighting. His problem has
+been economic rather than psychologic. The illuminating engineer cannot
+be expected to appreciate fully the harmonies of color in decoration.</p>
+
+<p>137. It is the decorator&#8217;s province to consider not only the power of
+light in the furnishing of a house, but the character of the light&mdash;not
+only its color influence, but the structural character of its
+introduction, as affecting these furnishings. It is beyond his province
+to determine whether carbon should be replaced by tantalum, osmium or
+tungsten to get higher efficiency, but he must understand the effects of
+these lights and prescribe accordingly.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>ABSORPTION AND REFLECTION</strong></p>
+
+<p>138. The architect who designates the number and location of outlets for
+the lighting sources, and specifies the candle-power of the lamps, knows
+nothing of the ultimate decoration of the house. Very often the
+specifications are finished before the color scheme has been decided
+upon, and as a result the degree of
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_79" id="Page_79">[Pg 79]</a></span>
+illumination either falls short of
+what is needed in case of dark-colored interiors, or proves excessive
+with light-tinted rooms. The architect works from one point, economy,
+the decorator from another, &aelig;sthetic; while the householder, the
+consumer who pays the illuminating bills, cannot comprehend why his
+lighting bills increase as his taste for luminous or dark-colored
+furnishings is gratified. Many houses are left in the white plaster for
+a year or more until the plaster settles. In this condition a small unit
+of light is sufficient, but when the decorator completes his work,
+adding fabrics and wall-papers which absorb and diminish the light, the
+householder, unaware of the cause, notices a material increase in his
+bills for illumination. These facts must be understood to be remedied,
+and it remains for the illuminating engineer to determine by direct
+experiment the value of any light as it affects and influences color, as
+well as the value of color as it affects light. It may be assumed
+without danger that the softest light is that of the candle, but we are
+not living in the candle age, and have to deal with either gas or
+electricity as the main illuminating agents.</p>
+
+<p>139. We have to consider the mercury arc light, the yellow flame carbon,
+the white magnetite and titanium arc&mdash;all of high efficiency, giving
+orange yellow in the flame-carbon to yellow and yellow white in the
+acetyline of the tungsten filaments. Then we have the greenish yellow of
+the Welsbach mantle, the bluish green of the mercury arc, the yellowish white
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_80" id="Page_80">[Pg 80]</a></span>
+of the carbon arc, as well as the clear white of the titanium arc.</p>
+
+<p>140. The subject may be divided into three heads: Quality, or
+approximation to natural light. Quantity, as demanded by reflection or
+absorption. Installation, diffusion or mechanical distribution.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para141" id="para141"></a></p>
+<p>141. Normal light is the light of general diffusion in daylight, and
+when we can find an artificial light that has the character of natural
+light we will have what is obviously the best illuminant for the home.
+Bear in mind that natural light as it appears out of doors is materially
+altered when indoors by the presence of different planes and angles,
+which cast and receive various depths of shadow; the quality required is
+that which will provide illumination without glare. The sun&#8217;s rays are
+softened and mellowed by the depth of air through which they pass, and
+it is this mellowness that is the chief requisite in illumination.</p>
+
+<p>Good decorative illumination does not mean illumination that reveals
+every hidden corner of a room. We need shadows to betray form, relieve
+monotony and give depth to the <em>ensemble</em>. If in an illuminated area
+light is of a uniform intensity, we have a bad effect. The variation of
+tone in a fabric is due to the light reaching it from a given point.
+Differences in intensity make shadows and tones.</p>
+
+<p>142. The illuminating engineer treats the home as he treats a public
+hall. He ignores the individuality of the room; the ball-room and the
+sickroom are lighted
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_81" id="Page_81">[Pg 81]</a></span>
+alike. He does not always consider the diminished
+force of light as it passes through a refracting surface, for it must be
+borne in mind that any method of indirect lighting by refraction is apt
+to cause a loss of volume. The use of various kinds of globes or lamp
+shades must all be considered. A light-colored wall reflects
+illumination, a dark-colored wall absorbs it; hence the amount of
+illumination is increased or diminished by the color of the walls.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>LIGHT EFFECT ON COLOR</strong></p>
+
+<p>143. To illuminate a city, with the dull grim environment of streets and
+houses, a soft yellow glow will give warmth and tone; the greenish
+yellow of the Welsbach or the blue green of the mercury arc may even be
+desirable, but the same green or violet rays are ghastly in a house, and
+should never be permitted.</p>
+
+<p>144. The warm glow of the yellow light, while pleasing to the
+complexion, is, however, objectionable as disturbing the color
+composition of dress or furnishings. A gaslight sends a yellow glow over
+all that it reaches, and has the same effect as the introduction of
+yellow into every color tint in the room. The walls that are red take on
+a scarlet hue; the scarlet ones are yellowed to orange; the blues become
+greenish.</p>
+
+<p>145. In order that the decorator may more readily grasp the subject, we
+have arranged a table showing the color changes effected by rays of
+yellow, blue, green and violet:</p>
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_82" id="Page_82">[Pg 82]</a></span></p>
+

+146. The pale tints of electric lights, which make every face in a room
+look ghastly, will affect quite as disastrously every soft color in the
+furnishings. In ordinary gaslight a pair of white gloves looks yellow,
+and we have seen Welsbach lamps which threw out a violet-blue
+illumination, depressing in the extreme. Under a yellow glow, blues,
+greens, violets and purples are greatly changed. Under a violet glow,
+yellows and greens are ruined. To see all colors in about the same value
+that they possess by daylight one must have a light in which no color
+tone is apparent.</p>
+
+<p>The question as to the disposition and intensity of the lights is of
+vital importance, and must be considered with the requirements of each
+particular room in mind.</p>
+
+<p>147. For the drawing-room and reception-room it is desirable that all
+parts of the room be evenly lighted, without a pronounced glare in any
+particular part of the room. One of the most effective ways of
+accomplishing this is by distributing the lights around the room, either
+on the ceiling, in the cove or above a wide molding, so that the ceiling
+acts as a reflecting agent, and distributes an even tone of light to all
+parts.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>ILLUMINATION</strong></p>
+
+<p>148. For the dining-room and living-room a different plan must be used,
+because of the different requirements. The table is usually in such
+rooms the chief feature of the furnishings, and it is customary to focus
+upon it the main body of light. While this is
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_84" id="Page_84">[Pg 84]</a></span>
+obviously necessary, the
+surroundings must not be ignored; neither is it possible to raise the
+center light to such a height that its radiation may reach all parts of
+the room, because in so doing the light reaches the eye at an extremely
+unpleasant angle. The drop fixture should be low enough to effectively
+light all parts of the table, while at the same time its shade should
+screen the light from the eyes of the room&#8217;s occupants. To illuminate
+the surrounding parts of the room other lights should be distributed
+where they will most effectively supply what further illumination is
+required.</p>
+
+<p>149. For the bedroom or boudoir the location of the lights should also
+be subordinated to the purposes of the room, and in addition to
+providing sufficient illumination to the entire area, special
+illumination should be provided for the mirrors and the dressing-table.
+The lights for the mirrors should be planned to illuminate the person
+and not the image.</p>
+
+<p>150. For large reception-rooms in hotels and public institutions the
+plan is frequently adopted of having all light provided by small table
+lamps with opalescent shades. These provide a medium glow throughout the
+entire room that is pleasing, and avoid entirely the garishness usually
+associated with such rooms. One of the mistakes of the day is the use of
+high-power lights, which are so intense that they require to be screened
+or shaded, involving waste of light and concentrating an unnecessary
+amount of illumination upon a narrow sphere.</p>

+<p>153. The introduction of light by the medium of a wire, which may be
+carried to any point in a room, encourages so many possibilities for
+comfort and effect that it behooves us to forget traditional customs
+which were established during the gaslight period. The introduction of
+gaslight through tubes was a rather complex problem, and the carrying of
+the pipes into the room through a main chandelier was the most
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_87" id="Page_87">[Pg 87]</a></span>
+advisable constructive form. But we have no need for such cumbersome
+fixtures in this day of wiring.</p>
+
+<p>A mere cord takes the place of an inch pipe. Modern German and Austrian
+lighting fixtures frequently are mere pendants, with the cord frankly in
+evidence. In this way the lights may be placed wherever needed&mdash;at the
+head of the lounge, so one may read more clearly by it; close by the
+piano; over the tea-table. In fact, supplementary lights to the general
+illumination are a convenience that the decorator should consider.</p>
+
+<p>154. The lighting of a house is a matter so dependent upon &aelig;sthetic
+conditions that it is never within the scope of the electrician. It is a
+problem for a decorator alone to solve. Intense and glaring lights of
+unusual power must be avoided. Luminants of low intrinsic brilliancy are
+preferable.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para155" id="para155"></a></p>
+<p>155. The floor is the least important surface for illumination, and has
+no reflecting power of value. The walls vary in value according to their
+color and surface. With lights radiating upward, however, the ceiling
+possesses definite power, and should be considered.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para156" id="para156"></a></p>
+<p>156. Dark colors absorb light, while white and light colors reflect, and
+this must always be remembered; for upon the character of the
+decorations and furnishings of various rooms the quantity as well as the
+quality of light has serious influence.</p>
+
+<p>&nbsp;</p>
+
+<p class="center"><strong>POWER NECESSARY</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para157" id="para157"></a></p>
+<p>157. While the list which we give herewith is
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_88" id="Page_88">[Pg 88]</a></span>
+based largely upon area,
+it may be taken as a basis of calculation for lighting equipment.</p>
+
+<p>It is estimated that 300 square feet of a hallway requires four
+sixteen-candlepower, or eight eight-candlepower units.</p>
+
+<p>In a room 20 x 20 feet, with furnishings of mahogany and green, broken
+up by bookcases and other furniture producing heavy shadows, it is
+estimated that twelve eight-candlepower lights are sufficient if worked
+into the frieze, and that a reading lamp of not less than
+thirty-two-candlepower be used as a drop light.</p>
+
+<p>Assuming a room is 15 x 15 feet, and furnished in light tones, four
+eight-candlepower lamps are ample.</p>
+
+<p>A living-room 20 x 25 feet, in light tones of color, requires two
+thirty-two-candlepower lights, centrally located, and about twelve
+eight-candlepower lights. This should provide brilliant illumination.</p>
+
+<p>A room 15 x 20 feet, in dark wood and hangings, needs eight
+eight-candlepower reflector lamps, backed up by six more
+eight-candlepower lamps.</p>
+
+<p>Bedrooms 15 x 15 feet in size, where they are not furnished in deep
+colors, should be equipped with two sixteen-candlepower lights.</p>

+<p>158. Mechanical lighting is so easily undertaken that it predisposes one
+to extravagance. Properly applied, artificial light adds materially to
+the charm of a room, but with illumination secured by the mere twist of
+the wrist one is prone to ignore the value of shadows and kill the
+beauty of light and shade by throwing
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_89" id="Page_89">[Pg 89]</a></span>
+illumination into the remotest
+corners. The danger to good decoration is not only in overlighting, but
+in overdecorating, and commercialism naturally encourages this tendency.
+The floor is frequently best treated if not entirely covered with a
+one-pattern treatment; the walls are frequently most pleasing if done in
+several papers instead of one. The most effective room is the one
+lighted in various degrees of strength, and while the decorator
+unconsciously follows this idea and avoids superabundance of pattern by
+using panels, friezes and wainscotings, we believe that each and every
+section or part of a room should be treated separately, observing, of
+course, a consistent spirit of design, preserving the period style and
+the general color effect; we would vary the actual shade of coloring and
+the size of pattern according to the dimensions of the wall space it
+occupies. The large patterns and the strong colorings which may be
+appropriate to an exposed wall are all out of proportion in narrow or
+darkened confines. Dark and deep recesses should obviously be treated
+differently to advanced or conspicuous spaces.</p>
+
+<p><a name="para159" id="para159"></a></p>
+<p>159. At a recent meeting of the Illuminating Engineering Society, D.
+McFarlan Moore made the following observations: &ldquo;A few years ago there
+was practically no way of changing the colors of the various forms of
+lamps, that is, the candle had its color perforce; such a thing as
+modifying it was not dreamed of. The oil lamp had its color; the open
+burner gas flame its color, the incandescent lamp its color, and the
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_90" id="Page_90">[Pg 90]</a></span>
+arc lamp its color. At the present time there are only two ways widely
+in use of varying the color; that is, if a person wishes to have a light
+of a different color, there are two main ways of getting it. One way is
+to get another light source, and the other way is to use a diffusion
+globe of some kind, which in any instance is extremely unscientific and
+inefficient. Some of the most recent advances in this line are connected
+with the flaming arc lamp. There we have an instance where the first
+step, at least, was taken toward scientifically controlling the color
+value. I refer to placing different chemicals in the carbon and thereby
+obtaining a color which can, to a very great extent, be determined
+previously. But still it by no means can be said that by means of the
+flaming arc lamp the color factor is under perfect control. However, it
+is possible now to have the color value under perfect control, and this
+is obtained by utilizing a vacuum tube, and by changing the various
+gases used in the tube to change the color. This has many advantages,
+and from a scientific standpoint it cannot be criticised, as can the
+other methods which have been used. For example, if you use a properly
+regulated vacuum tube and feed it with air only, a pink light results;
+if you feed it with nitrogen a yellow light results, and such a light
+can be used for a great many purposes; in fact its range of usefulness
+so far as the color is concerned, is about the same as that of the
+ordinary incandescent lamp, and therefore can be used by florists or by
+clothing merchants, and the distortion is not any worse than
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_91" id="Page_91">[Pg 91]</a></span> that of
+the ordinary incandescent lamp. However, it is not by any means claimed
+that when a tube is fed nitrogen, that the color is at all near
+daylight; it is simply a color which appears about the same as that
+produced by the ordinary incandescent lamp. Due to the enormous
+radiating surfaces of the tube, the color in day time looks considerably
+redder than that of the incandescent lamp because the lamp is extremely
+small as compared with the tube. When such a tube is fed with carbon
+dioxide at a definite pressure, and at a definite intensity, a light is
+obtained that undoubtedly is closer to average daylight color values
+than any light which has ever been produced before, and we can almost
+say that it is entirely satisfactory. For instance, experts in matching
+colors in the largest dye works of this country, men who have tried all
+other forms of light, and found them not at all suitable for their uses,
+have matched their colors under a vacuum tube supplied with carbon
+dioxide and have found after months of practical use that they could not
+detect any difference between most delicate lavender shades, when they
+are matched at night time under the tube and in day time by daylight,
+not direct sunlight.&rdquo;</p>

+<p class="center"><strong>DRESS AND COMPLEXION</strong></p>
+
+<p><a name="para160" id="para160"></a></p>
+<p>160. The nerves of the eye, exhilarated by any pronounced color,
+unconsciously observe the complement of that color when turned from it.
+The eye accustomed to the red of a woman&#8217;s dress, unconsciously sees a
+greenish cast in the face that is naturally pale, and in the same way
+the pallor of a woman&#8217;s face takes on a tint of red as the complement
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_92" id="Page_92">[Pg 92]</a></span>
+or contrast of a green dress. As one&#8217;s appetite for the thing that is
+sweet becomes exhausted by a superabundance of sweets, so the eye
+resting upon a mass of red in the dress of a woman fails to appreciate
+the red tint in the face, and the face thus juxtaposed becomes pallid. A
+red-faced woman often wears brighter red in dress, so that her face may
+appear less red. The blue dress gives yellow to the face; the yellow
+dress gives blue; these results are altered materially by the
+intervention of white between the face and the dress. White intensifies
+color. If there is a tinge of pink in the face white brings it out. If
+there is sallowness in the face white accentuates it. It is for this
+reason that many women wear yellow instead of white at the neck, so that
+the yellow of the face becomes less conspicuous by contrast. (See <a href="#para31">&para; 31</a>.)</p>
+
+<p><a name="para161" id="para161"></a></p>
+<p>161. It is dangerous, however, in matters of dress to strictly apply
+this rule, because color has a temperamental influence apart from the
+purely visual. Some women are positively depressed by certain colors;
+such colors are to be avoided, no matter what the deductions of theory.
+(See <a href="#para94">&para; 94</a>.)</p>
+
+<p>162. The black dress will make a woman look pale, for the reason that
+the black absorbs whatever color there may be in her face. A dark color
+has also absorbent characteristics. The lighter the color, the less
+absorbent. Hence light greens are preferable to bring out the color in
+the face than dark greens, assuming that we are to consider only this point,
+<span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_93" id="Page_93">[Pg 93]</a></span>
+which is all that is necessary to consider in house decoration.
+Therefore light greens as a background to theater boxes or as a wall
+background are always desirable.</p>

+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;">
+<span class="smcap">Broken Color</span>. Color changed by the addition of black,
+ white or gray.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Chroma</span>. Color.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Cold Colors</span> are colors containing very little, if any, red or
+ yellow.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Contrast Analogies</span>. Apparent contrasts of secondary and
+ tertiary colors which have constituent parts that are
+ related. Thus compositions of citrine and plum are apparent
+ contrasts, citrine being one of the three tertiary
+ colors, russet, slate and citrine, and plum being composed
+ of russet and slate, but in both citrine and plum
+ there is red, yellow and blue; hence related. There can
+ be no true contrasts excepting between primaries and
+ secondaries.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Gray</span>. Normal gray is black and white mixed, but quaternary
+ colors are also called grays, or colors of the dull or
+ neutral scale.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Harmony of Analogy</span> is produced by using related colors.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Harmony of Contrast</span>. The juxtaposition of a primary
+ color, for example, with a secondary made of the other
+ two primaries. Thus of the primaries red, yellow and
+ blue, the contrasts would be red and green. Of the two
+ colors thus forming contrast the one is said to be the
+ <span class="smcap">Complementary</span> of the other.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Hue</span>. Applied to the predominating color in a composition.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Intense or Saturated Colors</span>. Colors that are pure, having
+ no tint or shade.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Neutral Colors</span>. Applied to black, gray and quaternary
+ colors.</p>
+
+<p><span class='pagenum'><a name="Page_96" id="Page_96">[Pg 96]</a></span></p>
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Normal</span>. Intense colors of the prism. Colors of the natural
+ scale.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Prismatic Colors</span> are the colors viewed through a prism.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Quaternary Colors</span>. Made by combining two tertiary colors.
+ Quaternary colors are plum, sage and buff.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Scale</span>. Relates to colors of the same degree of tone.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Secondary Colors</span>. Orange, green and violet, each a combination
+ of two primaries.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Shade</span>. Produced by the addition of black to a normal color.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Sombre Colors</span>. Blue, violet and the subdued tones of luminous
+ colors.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Spectrum</span>. The illusion of color produced by means of the
+ prism.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Tertiary Colors</span>. Made by combining two secondary colors;
+ tertiary colors are slate, russet and citrine.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Tint</span>. Produced by the addition of white to a normal color.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Tones</span> are the gradations of color by adding either black or
+ white.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Warm Colors</span> or luminous colors are those having normal
+ yellow or red in the preponderance.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Advancing Colors</span>. Reds and bright yellow arouse the nerve
+ sense more quickly than blue or tones of color predominating
+ in blue. Hence they are called advancing colors.</p>
+
+<p style="margin-left: 20%; text-indent: -2em; margin-right: 20%;"><span class="smcap">Receding Colors</span>. Blue colors or colors in which blue predominate
+ or the exciting influences of yellow or red are
+ subjugated, are cold or receding colors.</p>

+(and you!) can copy and distribute it in the United States without
+permission and without paying copyright royalties. Special rules,
+set forth in the General Terms of Use part of this license, apply to
+copying and distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works to
+protect the PROJECT GUTENBERG-tm concept and trademark. Project
+Gutenberg is a registered trademark, and may not be used if you
+charge for the eBooks, unless you receive specific permission. If you
+do not charge anything for copies of this eBook, complying with the
+rules is very easy. You may use this eBook for nearly any purpose
+such as creation of derivative works, reports, performances and

+
+THE FULL PROJECT GUTENBERG LICENSE
+PLEASE READ THIS BEFORE YOU DISTRIBUTE OR USE THIS WORK
+
+To protect the Project Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting the free
+distribution of electronic works, by using or distributing this work
+(or any other work associated in any way with the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg"), you agree to comply with all the terms of the Full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License (available with this file or online at
+https://gutenberg.org/license).
+
+
+Section 1. General Terms of Use and Redistributing Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic works
+
+1.A. By reading or using any part of this Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work, you indicate that you have read, understand, agree to
+and accept all the terms of this license and intellectual property
+(trademark/copyright) agreement. If you do not agree to abide by all
+the terms of this agreement, you must cease using and return or destroy
+all copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in your possession.
+If you paid a fee for obtaining a copy of or access to a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work and you do not agree to be bound by the
+terms of this agreement, you may obtain a refund from the person or
+entity to whom you paid the fee as set forth in paragraph 1.E.8.
+
+1.B. "Project Gutenberg" is a registered trademark. It may only be
+used on or associated in any way with an electronic work by people who
+agree to be bound by the terms of this agreement. There are a few
+things that you can do with most Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works
+even without complying with the full terms of this agreement. See
+paragraph 1.C below. There are a lot of things you can do with Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works if you follow the terms of this agreement
+and help preserve free future access to Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works. See paragraph 1.E below.
+
+1.C. The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation ("the Foundation"
+or PGLAF), owns a compilation copyright in the collection of Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic works. Nearly all the individual works in the
+collection are in the public domain in the United States. If an
+individual work is in the public domain in the United States and you are
+located in the United States, we do not claim a right to prevent you from
+copying, distributing, performing, displaying or creating derivative
+works based on the work as long as all references to Project Gutenberg
+are removed. Of course, we hope that you will support the Project
+Gutenberg-tm mission of promoting free access to electronic works by
+freely sharing Project Gutenberg-tm works in compliance with the terms of
+this agreement for keeping the Project Gutenberg-tm name associated with
+the work. You can easily comply with the terms of this agreement by
+keeping this work in the same format with its attached full Project
+Gutenberg-tm License when you share it without charge with others.
+
+1.D. The copyright laws of the place where you are located also govern
+what you can do with this work. Copyright laws in most countries are in
+a constant state of change. If you are outside the United States, check
+the laws of your country in addition to the terms of this agreement
+before downloading, copying, displaying, performing, distributing or
+creating derivative works based on this work or any other Project
+Gutenberg-tm work. The Foundation makes no representations concerning
+the copyright status of any work in any country outside the United
+States.
+
+1.E. Unless you have removed all references to Project Gutenberg:
+
+1.E.1. The following sentence, with active links to, or other immediate
+access to, the full Project Gutenberg-tm License must appear prominently
+whenever any copy of a Project Gutenberg-tm work (any work on which the
+phrase "Project Gutenberg" appears, or with which the phrase "Project
+Gutenberg" is associated) is accessed, displayed, performed, viewed,
+copied or distributed:
+
+This eBook is for the use of anyone anywhere at no cost and with
+almost no restrictions whatsoever. You may copy it, give it away or
+re-use it under the terms of the Project Gutenberg License included
+with this eBook or online at www.gutenberg.org
+
+1.E.2. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is derived
+from the public domain (does not contain a notice indicating that it is
+posted with permission of the copyright holder), the work can be copied
+and distributed to anyone in the United States without paying any fees
+or charges. If you are redistributing or providing access to a work
+with the phrase "Project Gutenberg" associated with or appearing on the
+work, you must comply either with the requirements of paragraphs 1.E.1
+through 1.E.7 or obtain permission for the use of the work and the
+Project Gutenberg-tm trademark as set forth in paragraphs 1.E.8 or
+1.E.9.
+
+1.E.3. If an individual Project Gutenberg-tm electronic work is posted
+with the permission of the copyright holder, your use and distribution
+must comply with both paragraphs 1.E.1 through 1.E.7 and any additional
+terms imposed by the copyright holder. Additional terms will be linked
+to the Project Gutenberg-tm License for all works posted with the
+permission of the copyright holder found at the beginning of this work.
+
+1.E.4. Do not unlink or detach or remove the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License terms from this work, or any files containing a part of this
+work or any other work associated with Project Gutenberg-tm.
+
+1.E.5. Do not copy, display, perform, distribute or redistribute this
+electronic work, or any part of this electronic work, without
+prominently displaying the sentence set forth in paragraph 1.E.1 with
+active links or immediate access to the full terms of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm License.
+
+1.E.6. You may convert to and distribute this work in any binary,
+compressed, marked up, nonproprietary or proprietary form, including any
+word processing or hypertext form. However, if you provide access to or
+distribute copies of a Project Gutenberg-tm work in a format other than
+"Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other format used in the official version
+posted on the official Project Gutenberg-tm web site (www.gutenberg.org),
+you must, at no additional cost, fee or expense to the user, provide a
+copy, a means of exporting a copy, or a means of obtaining a copy upon
+request, of the work in its original "Plain Vanilla ASCII" or other
+form. Any alternate format must include the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+License as specified in paragraph 1.E.1.
+
+1.E.7. Do not charge a fee for access to, viewing, displaying,
+performing, copying or distributing any Project Gutenberg-tm works
+unless you comply with paragraph 1.E.8 or 1.E.9.
+
+1.E.8. You may charge a reasonable fee for copies of or providing
+access to or distributing Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works provided
+that
+
+- You pay a royalty fee of 20% of the gross profits you derive from
+ the use of Project Gutenberg-tm works calculated using the method
+ you already use to calculate your applicable taxes. The fee is
+ owed to the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark, but he
+ has agreed to donate royalties under this paragraph to the
+ Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation. Royalty payments
+ must be paid within 60 days following each date on which you
+ prepare (or are legally required to prepare) your periodic tax
+ returns. Royalty payments should be clearly marked as such and
+ sent to the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation at the
+ address specified in Section 4, "Information about donations to
+ the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation."
+
+- You provide a full refund of any money paid by a user who notifies
+ you in writing (or by e-mail) within 30 days of receipt that s/he
+ does not agree to the terms of the full Project Gutenberg-tm
+ License. You must require such a user to return or
+ destroy all copies of the works possessed in a physical medium
+ and discontinue all use of and all access to other copies of
+ Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+- You provide, in accordance with paragraph 1.F.3, a full refund of any
+ money paid for a work or a replacement copy, if a defect in the
+ electronic work is discovered and reported to you within 90 days
+ of receipt of the work.
+
+- You comply with all other terms of this agreement for free
+ distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm works.
+
+1.E.9. If you wish to charge a fee or distribute a Project Gutenberg-tm
+electronic work or group of works on different terms than are set
+forth in this agreement, you must obtain permission in writing from
+both the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation and Michael
+Hart, the owner of the Project Gutenberg-tm trademark. Contact the
+Foundation as set forth in Section 3 below.
+
+1.F.
+
+1.F.1. Project Gutenberg volunteers and employees expend considerable
+effort to identify, do copyright research on, transcribe and proofread
+public domain works in creating the Project Gutenberg-tm
+collection. Despite these efforts, Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works, and the medium on which they may be stored, may contain
+"Defects," such as, but not limited to, incomplete, inaccurate or
+corrupt data, transcription errors, a copyright or other intellectual
+property infringement, a defective or damaged disk or other medium, a
+computer virus, or computer codes that damage or cannot be read by
+your equipment.
+
+1.F.2. LIMITED WARRANTY, DISCLAIMER OF DAMAGES - Except for the "Right
+of Replacement or Refund" described in paragraph 1.F.3, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation, the owner of the Project
+Gutenberg-tm trademark, and any other party distributing a Project
+Gutenberg-tm electronic work under this agreement, disclaim all
+liability to you for damages, costs and expenses, including legal
+fees. YOU AGREE THAT YOU HAVE NO REMEDIES FOR NEGLIGENCE, STRICT
+LIABILITY, BREACH OF WARRANTY OR BREACH OF CONTRACT EXCEPT THOSE
+PROVIDED IN PARAGRAPH F3. YOU AGREE THAT THE FOUNDATION, THE
+TRADEMARK OWNER, AND ANY DISTRIBUTOR UNDER THIS AGREEMENT WILL NOT BE
+LIABLE TO YOU FOR ACTUAL, DIRECT, INDIRECT, CONSEQUENTIAL, PUNITIVE OR
+INCIDENTAL DAMAGES EVEN IF YOU GIVE NOTICE OF THE POSSIBILITY OF SUCH
+DAMAGE.
+
+1.F.3. LIMITED RIGHT OF REPLACEMENT OR REFUND - If you discover a
+defect in this electronic work within 90 days of receiving it, you can
+receive a refund of the money (if any) you paid for it by sending a
+written explanation to the person you received the work from. If you
+received the work on a physical medium, you must return the medium with
+your written explanation. The person or entity that provided you with
+the defective work may elect to provide a replacement copy in lieu of a
+refund. If you received the work electronically, the person or entity
+providing it to you may choose to give you a second opportunity to
+receive the work electronically in lieu of a refund. If the second copy
+is also defective, you may demand a refund in writing without further
+opportunities to fix the problem.
+
+1.F.4. Except for the limited right of replacement or refund set forth
+in paragraph 1.F.3, this work is provided to you 'AS-IS' WITH NO OTHER
+WARRANTIES OF ANY KIND, EXPRESS OR IMPLIED, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO
+WARRANTIES OF MERCHANTIBILITY OR FITNESS FOR ANY PURPOSE.
+
+1.F.5. Some states do not allow disclaimers of certain implied
+warranties or the exclusion or limitation of certain types of damages.
+If any disclaimer or limitation set forth in this agreement violates the
+law of the state applicable to this agreement, the agreement shall be
+interpreted to make the maximum disclaimer or limitation permitted by
+the applicable state law. The invalidity or unenforceability of any
+provision of this agreement shall not void the remaining provisions.
+
+1.F.6. INDEMNITY - You agree to indemnify and hold the Foundation, the
+trademark owner, any agent or employee of the Foundation, anyone
+providing copies of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works in accordance
+with this agreement, and any volunteers associated with the production,
+promotion and distribution of Project Gutenberg-tm electronic works,
+harmless from all liability, costs and expenses, including legal fees,
+that arise directly or indirectly from any of the following which you do
+or cause to occur: (a) distribution of this or any Project Gutenberg-tm
+work, (b) alteration, modification, or additions or deletions to any
+Project Gutenberg-tm work, and (c) any Defect you cause.
+
+
+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.
+
+
+Section 3. Information about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive
+Foundation
+
+The Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation is a non profit
+501(c)(3) educational corporation organized under the laws of the
+state of Mississippi and granted tax exempt status by the Internal
+Revenue Service. The Foundation's EIN or federal tax identification
+number is 64-6221541. Its 501(c)(3) letter is posted at
+https://pglaf.org/fundraising. Contributions to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation are tax deductible to the full extent
+permitted by U.S. federal laws and your state's laws.
+

+Fairbanks, AK, 99712., but its volunteers and employees are scattered
+throughout numerous locations. Its business office is located at
+809 North 1500 West, Salt Lake City, UT 84116, (801) 596-1887, email
+business@pglaf.org. Email contact links and up to date contact

+
+For additional contact information:
+ Dr. Gregory B. Newby
+ Chief Executive and Director
+ gbnewby@pglaf.org
+
+
+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate
+
+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.

+FUNDAMENTAL CONDITIONS
+
+LIGHT, COLOR, FORM, PROPORTION
+AND DIMENSIONS
+
+
+Whatever is good in interior decoration is the result of consistent
+relationship between Light, Color, Form, Proportion and Dimensions. The
+choice of Color should be guided by the conditions of Light. The beauty
+of Form and the symmetry of Proportion can exist only by a balance with
+Dimensions.
+
+Therefore, apart from any knowledge of historic or period decoration,
+effective or successful work must observe the technical laws governing
+conditions.
+
+
+#LIGHT#
+
+1. The white light of the sun is compounded of an almost innumerable
+number of color elements, as shown by the phenomena of the rainbow or by
+experimenting with the prism. (See ¶ 7.) When a ray of sunshine passes
+through a glass prism it is decomposed or separated, and if the
+prismatic colors are received upon a white screen you will find on the
+spectrum among the colors generated a pure blue, a pure red and a pure
+yellow. These are the primary colors, and it is necessary when thinking
+color to bear these prismatic colors in mind as standards.
+
+2. Color is an internal sensation originating in the excitation of the
+optic nerve by a wave action which we call light.
+
+3. The theory of light, the wave theory, is based upon the assumption
+that throughout all space there is an infinitely thin medium called
+ether. Scientists differ as to what this may be, but its movements
+constitute light, a reflection from a luminous body.
+
+4. Everything which we see is visible because it either emits light,
+like a flame, or reflects light.
+
+5. A piece of black cloth upon a white plate reflects but a small
+proportion of the light. The plate reflects a large proportion. A piece
+of black velvet reflects less light than black cloth and gives the
+effect of absolute blackness, or an empty and dark space.
+
+6. In practical demonstrations the study of color will be confusing
+unless it is understood at the outstart that pure prismatic colors can
+seldom be found in manufactured pigments, hence any demonstration of the
+theory of color composition is usually unsatisfactory.
+
+7. The theory which brings out of a ray of sunshine the disunited
+prismatic colors carries with it the deduction that before separation
+these colors constitute white light; but it must be manifest to even the
+superficial reader that such colors are mere spectrum colors--vision
+colors--and any amalgamation of material or pigment colors, so far from
+producing white, produces almost black.
+
+8. The theory that red and yellow make orange, and that a red and blue
+make violet, is correct; but if one attempts to demonstrate the theory
+with pigments, one is confronted not only by the lack of standard
+manufactured colors but by impurities, adulterations and chemical
+reaction in the pigments. The adulteration may not be perceptible in one
+primary color, but it is manifest when that color is brought into action
+with another primary, for it is seldom that a pure secondary results.
+
+
+#COLOR NOMENCLATURE--HARMONIES#
+
+9. Color nomenclature includes primary, secondary and tertiary colors,
+and innumerable hues, shades and tints. All these colors bear relations
+to one another, either relations of analogy, or relations of contrast.
+(See ¶ 18 and ¶ 19.)
+
+The Circle Diagram I shows the manner in which the various colors are
+formed. (See also Diagram III.)
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM I]
+
+The third circle shows how slate, citrine and russet are made. For
+instance, slate is one part of violet and one part of green. Hence, a
+tertiary color is made of equal parts of two secondaries.
+
+The outer circle, buff, sage and plum, can be analyzed in the same way.
+
+This Diagram I is arranged to show not only component parts of a color,
+but the parts that properly harmonize.
+
+
+#CONTRASTS#
+
+10. In music it is an established fact that certain notes used in
+pleasing combination produce sounds we call harmonies. The moment that
+more than one note is struck, there is danger of discord, and when ten
+notes resound to the touch of the player, they must be the right notes,
+or they jar upon the sensibilities. In the use of color the same
+immutable law applies.
+
+11. In Circle Diagram II the letters RV mean reddish violet, being a
+violet having more red than blue in its composition. BV means bluish
+violet, being a violet having more blue than red in its composition. BG
+means bluish green, being a green having more blue than yellow in its
+composition. YG means yellow green, being a green having more yellow
+than blue in its composition. YO means yellowish orange, being an orange
+having more yellow than red in its composition. RO means reddish orange,
+being an orange having more red than yellow in its composition. Thus we
+may advance from red to yellow by graduations almost imperceptible, by
+the addition of yellow, to a reddish orange, and so on gradually to
+orange, continuing on to yellowish orange, finally revealing pure
+yellow.
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM II]
+
+12. The contrasting color at any stage may be determined by proceeding
+in a direct line across the circle: Red has for its contrasting color
+green; hence, reddish orange would have for its contrasting color a
+bluish green, for the simple reason that if red contrasts with green
+and orange contrasts with blue, the color between the red and the orange
+would contrast with the color between the green and the blue. Let us
+determine the contrasting color for crimson. Crimson is simply a red
+slightly tinged with blue. If red contrasts with green, a shade a little
+to the left of red slightly tinged with blue would contrast with a shade
+a little to the right of green slightly tinged with yellow. In other
+words, crimson, RV, would contrast with yellowish green, YG. Determine
+at what point of the circle any color that you have in mind will come,
+and the contrasting color would be immediately opposite.
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM III]
+
+13. The harmony of analogy consists of the harmony of related colors or
+tones of one color. (See ¶ 17.)
+
+14. The harmony of contrast consists of colors in no way related. As an
+example of the harmony of analogy, we would mention red and orange,
+because both of these colors have ingredients in common, red being one
+of the two component parts of orange. As an example of the harmony of
+contrast, we suggest red and green, because there is nothing in common
+between the two, red being a primary color, and green a secondary,
+composed of the other two primaries, yellow and blue. (See ¶ 17.)
+
+15. Green is called the complement of red. The complement of blue
+would be orange, because orange is formed by combining the remaining
+primaries, red and yellow; and the complement of yellow would be violet,
+because violet is composed of blue and red, the other primaries.
+
+16. In Diagram II we have arranged at opposite points the primaries 1,
+the secondaries 2, the tertiaries 3, the quaternaries 4.
+
+But Diagram III goes further into the subject.
+
+It is easy to understand the composition of secondaries, but it is not
+so easy to know the tertiaries and quaternaries. (See also Diagram I.)
+
+
+#CONTRAST ANALOGIES#
+
+17. Diagram III is of the utmost value to the colorist, illustrating not
+only the composition of color, but showing the origin of each secondary
+from the two primaries, the origin of each tertiary from two
+secondaries, and of each quaternary from two tertiaries. It shows by
+groupings the harmonies of analogy or related colors; also the harmonies
+of contrast: By moving on the board one color on one line to another
+color upon another line, like the moving of a knight in a game of chess,
+and confining the moves always to adjoining lines, like yellow to
+violet, violet to citrine, citrine to plum, plum to brown. Yellow and
+violet are true contrasts, the one color having nothing in common with
+the other. The citrine and the plum, however, are approximate contrasts.
+For greater convenience, we have numbered the contrasting colors A's and
+B's. Absolute contrast is where the two colors have nothing in common.
+For composition purposes, however, citrine and violet may be considered
+contrasts, or correctly speaking, contrast analogies. (See ¶ 19.)
+
+18. A harmony of contrast means the utilization of a primary color with
+its complementary, or a color in conjunction with another color in no
+degree related: a primary with a secondary. But when we soften these
+contrasting colors by the addition of white we have in the lighter tints
+a scale of chroma that is a form of analogy.
+
+19. All combinations of secondary and tertiary colors, while apparently
+harmonies of contrast (the tertiary being made by the composition of two
+secondaries), constitute, in fact, contrast analogies, because by
+analysis we find that all tertiaries possess color components occurring
+in the apparently contrasting secondaries. (See Diagram III.)
+
+20. The harmony of contrast, literally, can only occur in the pure
+primary colors juxtaposed to the pure secondary colors, for in no case
+does the color formed by the combination of the two primaries have
+anything in common with the third primary; while a tertiary composed of
+two secondaries invariably has qualities possessed by the third
+secondary.
+
+21. In a room which is small or dark, the light tints in harmonies of
+analogy are advisable.
+
+
+#PROPORTIONS#
+
+22. In the use of one color with another of contrasting character the
+question frequently arises, what proportion of each should be used to
+obtain the best effect? Illustrative color books show usually samples of
+color of the same size, leading one unconsciously to the error that
+contrasting colors should occupy the same surface dimensions.
+
+23. In every room there must be a prevailing or dominant color, and the
+use of a contrasting color must be limited to proportions which give
+simply a pleasing emphasis. Let us assume that a room has a deep frieze
+pronouncedly green. To treat the rest of the wall in red of a direct
+contrast would be ineffective.
+
+24. If a rule can be applied we would say that no strong normal color
+should be used in large surfaces. If we were dealing with pigments we
+would say that if one-sixth of a side-wall is devoted to a frieze in
+green, the balance of the wall space should be treated with the same
+amount of red, mixed with the same amount of gray.
+
+25. For a room that is small and well lighted the fresh tints are not
+as desirable as the gray shades or tertiaries in conjunction with
+secondaries.
+
+
+#COLOR IN LARGE OR SMALL ROOMS#
+
+26. For a large room well lighted, yellow, red and orange in delicate
+shades are not as desirable as orange, violet and russet in light
+shades. This rule, however, may be reversed for a large room that is
+dimly lighted.
+
+A superabundance of light gives an uncomfortable glare.
+
+27. One may mechanically obtain harmony of analogy in proper proportions
+for the treatment of a room or a design by following the guidance of
+Diagram I. It will be noted in this diagram that the inner circle is
+blue, red and yellow, the primary colors.
+
+The second circle is composed of the secondaries; the third circle, the
+tertiaries, and the outer circle, the quaternaries.
+
+There is a nice distinction in the combination of primaries for the
+formation of secondaries, and exact proportions are quite necessary.
+
+An orange, for instance, would be off shade if it did not consist of
+half red and half yellow, but in the making of the quaternaries, which
+are, at best, gray shades, exact proportions are not necessary.
+
+Nevertheless, in Diagram I we have observed exact proportions in order
+to make our demonstration clear.
+
+The harmony of analogy is the combination of colors related, but the
+relationship must be displayed in proportions consistent with the origin
+of each and every color used.
+
+Let us assume that the prevailing note in a room, in either the
+side-wall or floor, is sage.
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM IA]
+
+We can tell by drawing lines from the center of Diagram I to the
+extremities of the space marked sage that there is a little blue and a
+little yellow, some green and slate and citrine used in the composition
+of sage, and hence the use of these colors constitutes the harmony of
+relationship or analogy.
+
+
+#COLOR PROPORTIONS#
+
+28. But to arrive at proportions we must reduce the circular table to a
+geometrical table. We must straighten out the lines so that the exact
+proportions are apparent. We need not confuse the reader by mathematics,
+but to establish our theory we produce the Diagram IA, and it will be
+here seen that the relative proportions existing in the segments of the
+circles have been observed in the triangles.
+
+Thus we have thirty-two right-angled triangles.
+
+Sage occupies fourteen-thirty-seconds of the entire composition; slate
+occupies five-thirty-seconds; citrine, five-thirty-seconds; green,
+six-thirty-seconds; blue, one-thirty-second; yellow, one-thirty-second;
+and these colors, to observe the proper harmony of analogy in a room,
+should be used in the proportions above indicated.
+
+Sage should be in the preponderance; citrine and slate should occupy
+nearly one-sixth of the entire composition, green about one-fifth, and
+the whole should be picked out with touches of sharp blue and sharp
+yellow, representing each one-thirty-second.
+
+Let us take, for instance, a room that is in white woodwork, and apply
+the sage to the walls and the slate to the floor, and lighten the sage
+with citrine and lighten the slate with violet, and intersperse orange
+and green in a way permitted by the proportions at our command. When the
+work is completed we find a harmony of analogy which can be then
+relieved by touches of the primitive colors, blue and yellow, in the
+proportions shown.
+
+29. Good examples of contrast color effects may be found in the
+following series of combinations:

+#BLACK--WHITE--GRAY#
+
+30. We do not wish to be understood as stating that the work of the
+colorist is solely mechanical; but we would emphasize that the
+influences of color are very largely the result of studied proportions.
+The basis upon which one operates must be soundly constructed upon the
+theory of scale, and scale is mechanically determined. If red is
+lightened by the addition of white, or darkened by the addition of
+black, it is removed to another scale, and can only harmonize by
+contrast with its complement by adding to green the same amount of white
+or black that has changed the character of the red, and this should be
+mathematically accurate.
+
+31. To place white by the side of a color heightens or intensifies the
+tone of that color. To put black beside a color has the opposite effect.
+It weakens the color. Every woman looks better in white, hence white is
+the universal wedding gown, the universal party dress for children, and,
+wherever practical, the universal Summer dress for adults as well. White
+is worn universally by men and women next to the face, in collars or in
+neckwear, and the reason for it is that the contiguous white intensifies
+whatever color they may possess. Black, on the other hand, lessens the
+color or lowers its tone.
+
+32. Gray is a medium between the two. While it renders an adjacent color
+less brilliant, it takes to itself at the same time a tint that is a
+complement of that adjacent color. In other words, gray by the side of
+green appears faintly pinkish.
+
+33. Black is always desirable as an associate with luminous colors.
+Black does not associate as well with two colors, one of which is
+luminous and the other sombre, as when associated with two luminous
+colors.
+
+ ORANGE YELLOW YELLOW
+ BLACK BLACK BLACK
+ RED ORANGE RED
+
+ YELLOW GREEN ORANGE
+ BLACK BLACK BLACK
+ VIOLET YELLOW GREEN
+
+ _The green being yellowish and the violet reddish._
+
+White is preferable when associated with a luminous and a sombre color.
+Thus,
+
+ RED ORANGE RED YELLOW
+ WHITE WHITE WHITE WHITE
+ BLUE BLUE VIOLET BLUE
+
+ ORANGE GREEN GREEN YELLOW
+ WHITE WHITE WHITE WHITE
+ VIOLET BLUE VIOLET VIOLET
+
+ _The violet being bluish, the green yellowish._
+
+
+#ROOM COMBINATIONS#
+
+34. The harmony of analogy is a subject that is little understood. It
+may be color sequence, progression, development or succession.
+
+ [Illustration: Showing Four-Color Combinations.
+ DIAGRAM IV and DIAGRAM V]
+
+ [Illustration: #SEQUENCE OF HARMONIES#
+ DIAGRAM VI
+ As these twenty-one sections are arranged, one has the layout for a
+ suite of seven rooms; following the top line across in a light scale,
+ the harmony is complete; following the center line across in a normal,
+ the harmony is complete; so also with the bottom line in a lower scale.
+ Follow the colors diagonally and you find they are repeats, or very
+ close to repeats--red, russet, red, for instance; violet, violet,
+ violet; blue, slate, blue; green, green, green; yellow, citrine, yellow;
+ orange, orange, orange. To the colorist the combinations here suggested
+ are full of inspiration.]
+
+Thus we may combine red, green and blue by starting with crimson and
+maintaining the following sequence: Crimson, red, scarlet, orange,
+yellow, greenish yellow, green, bluish green, blue, violet, and with
+added red get back to crimson.
+
+A room or a series of rooms may run to all colors and be still a harmony
+of analogy if the sequence or succession is gradual.
+
+35. No more delightful harmonies can be imagined than those provided by
+nature. One may start with the brown of the earth and run into several
+shades of green, and from that touch upon yellow, and from yellow to
+orange, and from orange to red, and red to violet, and violet to the
+blue of the sky. Or one may follow the colorings and the proportion of
+colorings in flora and never go astray. (See ¶ 22.)
+
+36. In the application of color to the home nothing is more pleasing
+than the harmony of sequence; the coloring of all rooms must be in
+sympathy with contiguous rooms. (Diagram VII.) (See ¶ 34.)
+
+37. All rooms are subject to the influence of a north or a south light,
+or much or little light, and the colorings must be considered
+accordingly. The ceiling and the upper parts of a wall require more pale
+colors where more light is needed. On the floor, however, where the
+greatest light falls, a little black may be added to soften the tone.
+
+38. Red and green are sharply contrasting colors; violet and yellow and
+blue and orange sharply contrast, and while their combinations may be
+used in adjoining rooms, it will be seen that in Diagram IV these
+contrasting tones are not in contact, but by their arrangement form
+analogies of contrast combinations.
+
+39. Yellow, orange, red, violet, blue and green are related; orange,
+russet, violet, slate, green and citrine are related; red, violet, blue,
+green, yellow and orange are related. Viewing the ceilings, the
+side-walls or the floor, there is the harmony of progression that we
+observe in the tinting of a flower. Viewed collectively the harmony is
+the same.
+
+40. To illustrate further our point we would take the ceiling line. We
+start with yellow, a primary color; orange possesses yellow; orange
+likewise possesses red, the adjoining color; violet possesses red, and
+it likewise possesses blue. On the side-wall, russet possesses orange,
+and it also possesses violet; it is the tertiary color made of these two
+secondaries. Slate is made of green and violet, and is thus also related
+to citrine.
+
+We do not wish it understood that these colors are to be applied flat,
+but simply in the predominating expression. (See ¶ 27.)
+
+41. The value of the diagram is obvious when one considers that in no
+particular is there a break in the sequence; but if we wish a harmony of
+analogy in a room, or a harmony of related parts, and wish the adjoining
+room to be in absolute contrast, we simply adopt the red, violet and
+blue for one room, and the green, citrine and orange for another; or the
+orange, russet and violet for one room, and the blue, green and yellow
+for the other. If, however, the sequence of color is desirable where we
+move from one apartment to another, and the eye is pleased by a gradual
+changing color, we can adopt any of these combinations in the order as
+presented.
+
+42. A vital point in the use of color, regarded usually with
+indifference or totally misunderstood, is the Unity of Composition to be
+preserved in the treatment of a series of _floors_ in a house; for on
+each floor of a house the conditions of light vary. As we ascend the
+stairs we find each floor requires an altered treatment, because of the
+added light given from the skylight. (See ¶ 37.) Moreover, in the
+arrangement of a floor the relation of one room to another is frequently
+so influential that no one room should be treated without due
+consideration to the adjacent apartment. (See Diagram VIII.)
+
+Too frequently the whole question of color is dismissed when the matter
+of north or south exposure is discovered, but the north room on the
+lower floor of a house is by no means so well lighted as the north room
+of the fourth or fifth floor, and the scale of color which would lend
+warmth to such a room would be weak in a more exposed apartment.
+(See ¶ 30.)
+
+43. Where the artist has but one room to consider there is little scope
+for his application of color knowledge. He must frequently compromise to
+meet the conditions. But presuming that he must treat a floor
+through, he should adopt a Unity which will apply harmoniously to all
+the rooms and hallways.
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM VII]
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM VIII]
+
+ [Illustration: DIAGRAM IX For Key to Numbers see Diagram VII.]
+
+
+#CONTIGUOUS HARMONIES#
+
+44. For the lower floor he must arrange his colors so that while they
+moderate the direct glare of a sunny exposure or brighten the
+cheerlessness of a north light, they will also form a composition that
+pleases when seen from a point of common observation.
+
+45. On the upper floors the scale of color should be gradually softened,
+for the yellow or ivory tints that are pleasing on the first floor would
+be harsh and glaring where there is greater light. Exterior conditions
+must be borne always in mind.
+
+46. Recalling that the primary colors are yellow, red and blue, and that
+the secondary colors are orange, violet and green, and that the tertiary
+colors are russet, slate and citrine, all with many tints and shades,
+let us arrange a series of five rooms seriatim, so treating ceiling,
+side-wall and floor (See Diagram IX) that in passing from one room to
+another they will be in sequence of color harmony--each complete from
+floor to ceiling and all in harmony along the ceiling lines, the wall
+lines and the floor lines.
+
+Let us take the suite of rooms suggested in Diagram IX. We must consider
+desirable colorings in all of the rooms to be treated, and so far as
+possible adjust the sequence of treatments, as shown in Diagram VIII, so
+that the approach to each room will be in harmonious order as viewed
+from any room. We have five rooms to treat. The library happens to be
+on the north side, hence we wish to treat it in colorings that supply
+the deficiency of sunshine. The hallway is rather dark. The living-room
+has only one window, and requires more warmth of color than the
+billiard-room and dining-room, which being sunshiny can be treated in
+more sombre tones. Therefore we select combination 6 for the hallway.
+The one room on the right we treat in No. 1. The rooms on the left we
+treat in Nos. 5, 4 and 3. We have, therefore, as we stand in room No. 6,
+treated in green, citrine and orange, a view to the right of yellow,
+orange and red, which is in harmonious juxtaposition. To the left we
+have a glimpse of rooms, the floors of which adjoining the orange floor
+of the entrance hall, are yellow, green and blue. The wall spaces
+adjoining the citrine wall space of the hall treatment are green, slate
+and violet. The frieze lines adjoining the green of the hall treatment
+are blue, violet and red--all juxtaposed harmonies. The floors of all
+rooms are of one deep scale; the walls lighter scale; the friezes and
+ceiling still lighter. If viewed from room 4 the harmonies are equally
+effective.
+
+47. Diagram VII is useful for many reasons. In its present shape it
+shows the harmonies of analogy or related parts. To arrange harmonies of
+contrast, combine the colors of the first room with the fourth room, the
+colors of the second room with the fifth room, the colors of the third
+room with the sixth room. (See ¶ 37.)
+
+
+#HARMONIES FOR THE ROOM#
+
+48. The floor should usually enter into the color scheme as the low
+note in the scale. It is the background for the furniture, and should be
+deeper than the dado or wainscoting. The wood trims--baseboard, doors,
+plate-rails, and everything of that character, except the picture
+molding--should be like the woodwork of the furniture. This brings the
+woodwork into contrast with the wainscoting (unless the wainscoting be
+wood) and into harmony with the side-walls, although the degree of
+harmony is far removed. Thus, if the woodwork of the furniture is
+mahogany, the wainscoting green, the side-walls pink and gray, we would
+find the window trims of mahogany, or imitation mahogany, in harmony
+with the side-walls. (See ¶ 51 and ¶ 52.)
+
+49. I would lay down the rule that the wood trims of a room should
+harmonize by analogy with the side-walls where such walls are provided
+with a contrasting wainscoting; but if there is no wainscoting, or the
+wainscoting be also of wood, then the wood trims and furniture contrast
+with the side-wall.
+
+Substitute green side-wall for the pink, ¶ 48.
+
+White woodwork is always permissible. Study Diagram VI on page 22.
+
+50. The picture molding may harmonize with the ceiling. Indeed, a white
+picture molding frequently is better than one matching the general
+woodwork (See ¶ 37); a dark upper molding, moreover, reduces the
+apparent size of a room.
+
+51. Where black furniture is used, or gold furniture, it will of course
+be understood that the wood trims shall not be black or gold; but so
+long as they are in harmony, that will be sufficient. White wood trims
+are nearly always permissible as a substitute for colored wood.
+
+52. Tones of gray with soft colorings (See ¶ 32), are always safe.
+
+To summarize (Note ¶ 37):
+
+53. In harmonies of contrast the side-walls, the furniture woodwork,
+wood trimming, cove, ceiling and the curtains should be related.
+
+54. The rugs, frieze, wainscoting or dado, furniture upholsterings and
+the curtain borders should be related. (See ¶ 49.)
+
+55. If the curtains have no borders, then the curtains contrast with the
+wood trims.
+
+56. Remember always cove and ceiling should be the palest tint of the
+side-wall color, and the rug should be of the deepest contrast to the
+side-wall, in harmony with the wainscoting, if there is a wainscoting.
+Remember, also, that the colors here prescribed are never to be of the
+same scale. The rug or carpet is of the deepest, and the ceiling of the
+palest. While certain colors are to contrast, they are not to contrast
+in the same scale. (See ¶ 37 and ¶ 40.)
+
+57. If we find that the tone of color of the wainscoting, for instance,
+is a bluish green, the side-wall should be of a reddish orange; for the
+reason that if green contrasts with red, and if blue contrasts with
+orange, a bluish green would contrast with a reddish orange.
+
+58. Exception to ¶ 56. Only large or well-proportioned rooms can stand
+the diminishing or reduction effects of contrast. In low ceiling rooms,
+leave out the contrasting frieze, and let border, cornice and ceiling be
+in receding colors. (See ¶ 89.)
+
+59. We all know that a northern exposure gives a room a deficiency of
+sunlight, and the wall treatment should supply this. A southern room, on
+the other hand, gives so much sunlight that counteracting wall
+treatments in cold color are permissible.
+
+60. In the color treatment of a room one has either to adopt a harmony
+of analogy or a harmony of contrast, and this is a matter which depends
+upon so many conditions that it should be carefully considered.
+(See ¶ 88 and ¶ 89.) Where a plate-rail is used one must remember that a
+great deal of color may be furnished by the bric-a-brac, and that the wall
+behind this plate-rail should be of a color in contrast to the contents
+of the plate-rail.
+
+61. When we follow a scheme of _contrast_ the borders should be usually
+complements, and if the reader has studied our diagram he will very
+readily understand how to determine the exact complementary color.
+
+
+#WALL PROPORTIONS#
+
+62. The wainscoting or dado should be the same as the top border or
+frieze, but of a darker tone. The intermixture of white or black is
+always permissible; thus a paper as a side-wall might have as its
+frieze the complementary coloring with more white, while the wainscoting
+or dado should be the complementary with black added.
+
+63. The cornice should be lighter than the border, and its members may
+show several tints, with the ceiling lighter still. (See ¶ 92.)
+
+64. As a rule the color of the chair coverings should be the
+complementary of the side-walls, and the color of the furniture frames
+should be complementary to the wainscoting; so by following this rule we
+find that the wainscoting serves as a contrasting background to the
+chair frame.
+
+65. Let us imagine a room wherein the side-walls are of a reddish tint;
+the wainscoting, being a complementary color, is of a greenish cast. The
+furniture is of mahogany, and in contrast to the wainscoting, while the
+chair covering, being greenish in contrast to the chair frame, is also
+in contrast to the side-wall. Here we have, then, the color relations of
+side-wall, wainscoting, furniture-frames and covering; but it is
+undesirable that these tones should be in the same scale. (See ¶ 62 and
+¶ 92, also tables pages 42 and 43.)

+
+#ROOM PROPORTIONS#
+
+66. In small rooms harmonies of contrast are unsafe, because contrasts
+must involve advancing colors, which make a room look smaller. (See ¶ 86
+and ¶ 90.) Harmonies of analogy are far better; and as frieze,
+wainscoting and dado are not recommended in the small room, we suggest
+that the furniture woodwork and the wood trims should be of one color
+note, unless it is desired that the wood trims should be white; and that
+the side-walls, curtains and chair upholsterings should be of a note in
+some degree related and of receding color, picked out with just a touch
+of contrasting color. (See ¶ 90 and ¶ 91.)
+
+This contrasting color may be introduced in the accessories, the
+pictures, bric-a-brac, flowers (natural or artificial) or books.
+
+ [Illustration: "... pronounced patterns must balance," etc.
+ (See page 38.)]
+
+
+ [Illustration: Broken heights. (See ¶ 75.)]
+
+#DECORATIVE PROPORTIONS#
+
+(SEE CHART)
+
+On the preceding pages we present a quick-reference chart of rules that
+should be followed in furnishing rooms under various conditions of Light
+and Proportion.
+
+ 67. A large room with high ceiling and well lighted.
+ 68. A large room with low ceiling and well lighted.
+ 69. A large room with high ceiling and poorly lighted.
+ 70. A large room with low ceiling and poorly lighted.
+ 71. A small room with high ceiling and well lighted.
+ 72. A small room with low ceiling and well lighted.
+ 73. A small room with high ceiling and poorly lighted.
+ 74. A small room with low ceiling and poorly lighted.
+
+There are two considerations to bear uppermost in mind: Proportions
+affected by Color and Proportions affected by Design.
+
+75. It is easily understood that a large room may be safely furnished
+with large pieces of furniture, but where there is a wide expanse of
+floor space care must be exercised to secure broken heights: In a
+high-ceilinged room the furniture must not be all high; in a
+low-ceilinged room the furniture must not be all low.
+
+Avoid straight line effects in the furniture heights and in the
+wall-paper, which, if in pronounced patterns, must balance in
+conspicuous wall members and show the broken junctures or bad matchings
+in inconspicuous or obscure corners.
+
+
+#COLORS THAT GIVE SIZE TO A ROOM#
+
+76. The wall and fabric designs must be of a size proportionate to the
+size of the room. The color treatment of a well-lighted room must be
+subdued to offset the glare of the natural illumination, and the natural
+illumination be subdued to soften the color treatment; glare must be
+avoided.
+
+77. Advancing colors are colors which contain red or yellow in the
+ascendancy; _receding_ colors are those which contain blue in the
+ascendancy. Green in its purity, being half yellow and half blue, is
+almost neutral. In the same way violet, being made up of half red and
+half blue, is theoretically neutral, although the blue tone is usually
+more assertive than the red and makes the color recede. Any color or hue
+possesses advancing or receding qualities according to the ascendancy of
+red, blue or yellow in its composition.
+
+78. Orange is an advancing color; so also is violet in the shades
+approaching red; green in the shades approaching yellow.
+
+79. Of the tertiary colors russet is an advancing color, because while
+it contains some blue in the violet of its composition, it contains a
+preponderance of red and orange.
+
+
+#ADVANCING AND RECEDING COLORS#
+
+80. Citrine is an advancing color, because while it contains some blue
+in the green of its composition, it contains a preponderance of yellow
+and orange; slate is a receding color, because while it contains some
+yellow in the green of its composition, it contains a preponderance of
+blue; in the same way plum may be regarded as an advancing color,
+because of its preponderance of red; buff is an advancing color, because
+of its preponderance of yellow; sage is a receding color, because of its
+preponderance of blue.
+
+81. The carpet should always be in the low tone, and in a small room a
+bordered carpet should be always tabooed. So also should one avoid the
+use of one rug so placed that a border of woodwork shows around it,
+because this gives the border effect and makes a small floor space look
+still smaller. Better use small rugs. The use of a lot of narrow rugs
+lengthwise along a narrow room will make the room look all the narrower,
+but the same rugs placed crosswise would make a room look wider.
+
+The diagrams which we have prepared will give even the man who
+understands it all a quicker grasp of the points involved.
+
+82. Width effect and distance effect are obtained best by arranging the
+smaller pieces at the farthest points.
+
+83. It is the same with pictures. While a room should be balanced, and
+the pictures placed in a manner to give this result, it is best, where
+possible, to keep the larger pictures, larger effects, always near the
+eye. The crowding of large pieces at the farthest point diminishes the
+apparent size of the room.
+
+
+#FLOOR TREATMENTS#
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+84. Continuous design in ceiling or carpet weakens the size effect;
+hence rugs which break the continuity by being laid across the room
+instead of lengthwise are preferable. (See Diagrams and ¶ 81.)
+
+85. It is a safe rule to do a small or narrow room in harmonies of
+analogy or related colors, colors of a light tone and of receding
+character. Apart from any effect which color may possess decoratively or
+pictorially, its value cannot be overestimated in its application to the
+laws of proportion.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+86. Borders may be safely used on the wall or on the carpet of any large
+room with high ceiling, but wall friezes should be avoided where the
+ceilings are low, for they foreshorten the height effect.
+
+87. We would avoid borders on the floor of a small room to make it look
+larger, and we would use wide borders in a large room with a low ceiling
+so that the floor may be foreshortened.
+
+88. One may utilize in a large, poorly lighted room masses of luminous
+colors to give artificial sunlight to the room deficient therein, but in
+the small, poorly lighted room this treatment should be avoided.

+ * * * * *
+
+It is impossible to tabulate directions for using color without an
+understanding of the conditions, the size, light and height of a room.
+(See pages 34 and 35.) The above tables relate only to normal
+conditions.
+
+White woodwork can be used effectively in the trims of a room and give
+greater light and size. The darker the wood trims the smaller the room
+appears. We have left out of consideration the window treatments which,
+as a rule, should be of white lace, perhaps overdraped in colored
+stuffs. If the room is poorly lighted, it is obviously undesirable to
+cut off any light from the window by even laces; the curtains,
+therefore, in a poorly lighted room should be draped back. Colored
+laces, grenadines or madras stuffs are frequently used to give period
+style or color tone, and wherever they are used, such curtains should
+harmonize with the wall. So also with the overdraperies to the lace
+curtains.
+
+89. Luminous or advancing colors make a small room look all the smaller;
+therefore in small rooms we suggest the use of white woodwork, and in
+the color treatment we would avoid contrasts, but would suggest
+harmonies of analogy in receding colors, soft grays, greens and blues.
+These are not luminous colors and will make a small room look the
+larger, while the white will give light effects, and if the room appears
+a trifle somber it can be easily relieved by the bright colors of the
+bric-a-brac and by a touch of gold here and there on the wall. (See ¶ 66
+and ¶ 85.)
+
+90. There are cases where a small room has a northern exposure, and
+while apparently expedient to treat such a room in warm colors to supply
+the deficiency of sunlight, such a course would make a room look
+smaller.
+
+91. Under the circumstances treat the room in light hues, gray
+preferred, and get the deficiency of sunlight through some warm isolated
+details and in the lace curtains.
+
+
+#THE WALL THE KEYNOTE COLOR#
+
+92. Our theory of color as applied to room furnishings provides always
+that the side-wall is the keynote and this keynote is usually fixed for
+practical reasons in sympathy with the furniture; above to the ceiling's
+center the note ascends and below to the floor center it descends; it
+goes into tints as it ascends and into deeper shades of gray and brown
+as it descends.
+
+If, for instance, blue is the keynote, by adding black you have drabs,
+slates or grays for the floor, while if the keynote be red you have
+ecrus and browns for the floor light or gray, according to the color
+scale of the keynote.
+
+93. It must be understood that in designating a color we do not mean
+that it shall be solid or pure, but merely that it prevails. (See ¶ 29.)
+
+A side-wall may be treated in several colors, but as long as orange
+prevails, it follows the conditions of the combination, pages 42 and
+43. The factors included in the line designated A are all of one color
+family. The factors indicated by B are also family colors. It will be
+seen that the A or B colors taken by themselves form HARMONIES OF
+ANALOGY; it is only by combining the A's with the B's that we have
+HARMONIES OF CONTRAST.
+
+If a room is to be done in harmonies of analogy, use the A colors alone
+or the B colors alone, but never A and B together.
+
+
+#THE PSYCHOLOGY OF COLOR#
+
+94. Whatever may be the charm conveyed by design there is a reason for
+it. We can analyze it.
+
+It has an inherent quality of beauty or historic interest, and there is
+a definite and distinct reason for our liking it.
+
+But the effect of color is exciting or disturbing, tranquilizing or
+pleasing, inexplicable and inexpressible, affecting the senses like an
+appeal to the passions or the appetite. One might as well explain the
+love of sport, literature, art or vice. The sense of color is a nerve
+sense, and this sense varies in the individual. We know that colors
+which are strongest in direct sun rays, like red and orange, arouse the
+normal senses, while the blues and violets quiet.
+
+Nature provides vast fields of green because favorable in its effects
+upon humanity. Experiments prove that men of extreme sensibility exposed
+to the influences of red light finally show excitement which gives
+muscular development fifty per cent. in excess of the power possessed by
+the same subject when exposed for the same period under the influences
+of blue light.
+
+
+#TO DETERMINE THE COLOR SENSE#
+
+Color, like music, while subjected to positive rules of harmony, appeals
+to natures according to the responsiveness of their nerve sense, and the
+practical decorator in dealing with a customer should discover at the
+outstart the character of that nerve sense. Some natures respond to the
+normal colors, barbaric colors. Some respond to the softer tints and are
+disturbed by the sharper tones. A dulled sense requires sharp contrasts;
+a quickened sense is satisfied with the soft gray tones. Apart from any
+question of propriety or environment the individual taste for color must
+be determined before the individual taste can be pleased.
+
+A demonstration of four examples in color may serve the purpose of
+determining one's color sense.
+
+First. Combinations of normal primary and secondary colors, (_a_)
+arranged in contrasts, (_b_) in analogies.
+
+Second. Combinations of tones of the above colors, (_a_) arranged in
+contrasts, (_b_) in analogies.
+
+Third. Combinations of tints of the above colors, (_a_) arranged in
+contrasts, (_b_) in analogies.
+
+Fourth. Combinations of the gray (tertiary) tones of the above colors,
+(_a_) arranged in contrasts, (_b_) in analogies.
+
+95. Do not allow your personal color-sympathies to dominate your work.
+All colors have their usefulness, for there are occasions when it is
+proper they should be used, apart from any question of harmony; one
+must consider always the uses of colors, the lights, and the purpose of
+the room under treatment.
+
+96. Nature gives to the dark forest depths great brilliancy of
+floriculture, and dark-skinned people indulge unconsciously the same
+bright scale of color. But as we come out of the forest and advance in
+civilization we use barbaric colorings more discriminately.
+
+97. We employ gold, orange or yellow for the north room not for inherent
+beauty, but for the sense of warmth which they convey to an atmosphere
+chilled by the absence of sunlight. We employ receding colors in a small
+room that the room may look larger. We employ cold colors in a sunny
+room, especially in the summer home, for reasons psychological rather
+than aesthetic.
+
+
+#PERIOD USES OF COLOR#
+
+98. If our furniture is white and gold, it is clearly evident that the
+colorings of a room should be soft and harmonious. If we adopt the dark
+teakwood of India or the deep brown of Flanders, our color scheme again
+changes. The preponderance of white in Colonial rooms was due to
+architectural conditions. White illuminates; and in the days when our
+ceilings were no higher than seven and a half feet, and our windows were
+small, the room needed an artificial light, and white supplied this.
+
+99. In furnishing an Empire room, the decorators have, little by little,
+led themselves to believe that what is known as Empire green is a
+distinct shade of green. On the contrary, green was used in the period
+of the Empire simply because it was in pleasing contrast with the
+mahogany and brass so much used. If the mahogany is dark, a dark green
+is desirable; if light, a light green.
+
+100. Egyptian decoration was full of gold and brilliant coloring, and a
+popular form of combination was the triad form:
+
+ Black, yellow and red.
+ Red, blue and white.
+ Dark blue, light blue and white.
+ Cream color, blue and black.
+ Dark red, medium yellow and blue.
+
+101. The Greek decorators, who painted in fresco, used white, red, blue,
+yellow and black. Natural marbles were much used in green and red and
+alabaster, and bronze, gold and silver.
+
+We see the flat colors of the Greek, Etruscan and Pompeiian age and we
+imagine they are typical of the period, but we must consider that the
+examples of that period which we now possess are faded and emasculated,
+and that the more authentic the example, the more aged it is, and hence
+the more weakened in color character.
+
+The Greeks loved color, and their embroideries were in gold and blue and
+Tyrian purple.
+
+Roman coloring was but a continuance of the Greek, characterized by dark
+and rich backgrounds, which were frequently black, red or deep yellow
+and dark blue, on which figures and landscapes, or animals, or groups
+from still life, were executed in bright colorings of powerful
+contrasts. Black and white were used, and later, when the Byzantine
+artists and craftsmen found their way to Western Italy, they spread this
+love of bold coloring, so that at the dawn of the Renaissance we find a
+return to the Greek and Roman coloring, which, however, was modified in
+England, Germany and Flanders, according to temperamental conditions.
+
+102. We find, for instance, some forms of Florentine decoration, full of
+yellow, red-yellow, blue-greens and light slate blues. Botticelli used
+whites, creams, reds and citrine, with umber tones heightened by gold,
+and if we examine carefully the Sixteenth and Seventeenth Century
+Italian brocades which are preserved in the museums, we discover a great
+preponderance of yellow-green as an ornament on dark violet, or light
+olive green on dark blue, or dull orange on crimson brown.
+
+In some of the richest early Italian fabrics we find:
+
+ Purple and sage-green ornaments on indigo ground; outlines in gold.
+
+ Dull crimson, pale blue and chrome yellow ornaments on dark gray
+ ground.
+
+ Pale yellow-green ornaments on deep amber ground.
+
+ Dark blue-green and light greenish-yellow ornaments on deep crimson
+ ground.
+
+ Pale greenish-blue ornaments on dark gray-blue ground, with white
+ and gold picked out in small quantities.
+
+ Emerald green and dull orange ornaments on dark gray-green ground
+ outlined in gold.
+
+103. The French Renaissance takes inspiration from the Roman and Greek.
+
+The Louis XIV is a development of the Renaissance, with a conspicuous
+use of gold.
+
+The Louis XV is an elaboration along the same lines.
+
+The Louis XVI is a simplification and a return to the classic.
+
+The Georgian is largely Roman and Pompeiian.
+
+104. The Adam style was taken directly from the Pompeiian, but in most
+cases, instead of having the Pompeiian solid color background with
+design lightly executed, the background is in the light color, and the
+design dark. To follow strictly the Pompeiian palace style would be too
+garish in our modern circumscribed environment.
+
+105. It is a nice psychological problem to decorate the house in a way
+to give true balance to the aesthetic sense. No matter how great one's
+admiration for a thing, there is always a final point of satiety at
+which the desire needs rest or balance. A woman may love flowers, for
+example, but in the season of flowers, when all nature supplies an
+over-abundance, the visual sense becomes satiated, and the house
+interior that is furnished in cool tints and two-tones gives positive
+relief.
+
+106. On the other hand, floral decorations in the home are the balance
+needed to the mind that craves them during the Winter period when there
+is a lack of color without.
+
+
+ [Illustration: Compare perpendicular and horizontal lines: The angles
+ and curves which enclose them change their relative equality.]
+
+ * * * * *
+
+#ILLUSION EFFECT AND EXPRESSION IN THE USE OF LINES#
+
+107. We very often notice a room which has been carefully carried out
+but is utterly lacking in charm. The color seems right, and, considered
+in detail, the furniture and the furnishings are appropriate, but the
+room lacks effectiveness.
+
+It is uninteresting.
+
+It is like a doll face that is, perhaps, perfect in detail, but utterly
+devoid of EXPRESSION.
+
+The artist who paints a portrait is a failure without the ability to
+give expression: hence in architecture the acute-angled spires or
+arched roofs have the same expression that the "long face" carries.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+If we smile, the mouth curves upward; if we grieve, the lines turn
+downward.
+
+108. In festival decorations, joy is expressed by loops, curves and
+festoons.
+
+109. In serious decorations (libraries, studies, church or office work)
+straight lines are used; curtains are gathered in plaits so that the
+sags and drapes are all out of them; they are drawn. It is the same when
+we say of a person: "He looks serious, his face is drawn; it is full of
+lines."
+
+110. The observation, "a broad smile on his face," means literally just
+that; the lines extend outward and upward, giving an expression of
+breadth and joy to the countenance.
+
+
+#ILLUSION#
+
+111. A doorway looks wider that has at the top a drapery which crosses
+in one complete curved sweep. A side-wall is larger apparently if along
+the frieze line long, wide loops or festoons are arranged. The same wall
+is more contracted and higher if treated in arrow-point forms of design.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+The decorator should study these matters of illusion, for they are
+vital to the success of his labor. (See ¶ 116.)
+
+112. Perpendicular lines contract the wall space and extend the apparent
+height of a room; horizontal lines shorten the apparent height of the
+ceiling and lengthen the width of the room. (See exceptions, ¶ 119.)
+
+These straight lines may be used where extremes are needed. (See pages
+61 and 63.)
+
+A short doorway, for instance, looks higher where the portiere is hung
+in straight folds; so also with a cottage window.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+113. Every decorator who handles fabrics, every cabinetmaker who lays
+out the woodwork of a room, every stained glass window maker, should
+appreciate one fact: A line which is finished at the top or bottom, or
+both, with acute angles appears longer than the line that is finished
+top and bottom with an obtuse or right angle. It is the same with the
+finish of a wall frieze.
+
+If the wall frieze ends abruptly (Illustration A on page 57), it is
+foreshortened; if it is finished by angles (Illustration B), the height
+of the room is apparently greater. (See the illustration on page 51.)
+
+114. It is the same way with curves; given two lines of equal length and
+enclose one with convex and the other with concave curves, and the line
+enclosed convex will appear longer.
+
+ [Illustration: Treated for Broken Heights.]
+
+115. In dress a collar brought down to an acute angle in the front of
+the waist gives height effect, whereas a perfectly straight collar
+around the neck reduces the apparent height and gives width effect.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+116. The use of arches should be studied. A space that is arched looks
+wider than it actually is, for the eye unconsciously follows the lines
+of the arch, and a distance or width effect is the result. The same
+space treated with a straight line is quickly bridged. The same space
+treated with lines that come to an angle looks narrower, for the reason
+that the eye becomes focused by the apex of the angle, and a height
+effect, not a breadth effect, is the result. (See page 57.)
+
+117. This illusion is best shown in the illustrations of the parallel
+lines that are crossed diagonally, with the result that the lines no
+longer look parallel because of the angles. Nevertheless, they are
+parallel, and the lines running diagonally at the bottom of this page
+are also parallel.
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+We present two practical illustrations of illusion in the use of lines.
+(See ¶ 112.) They represent the side-walls of two rooms of the same
+dimensions, but showing apparently different proportions, the
+perpendicular lines making the side-wall look higher and the horizontal
+lines making the side-wall look lower. (See page 59.)
+
+ [Illustration: Illustration A.]
+
+ [Illustration: Illustration B. (See ¶ 113.)]
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+The length of the wall space is shortened, moreover, by the
+perpendicular lines and lengthened by the horizontal lines.
+
+118. No period expresses more clearly the joy of curves as opposed to
+the severity of straight lines than that voluptuous period of Louis XV
+known as Rococo. It was a profligate era, an era of pleasure, and the
+appended illustration of part of a frieze is in no way exaggerated, but
+a true example of a common expression. (See page 60.)
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+ [Illustration]
+
+119. Distinct perpendicular lines give height effect, but they also
+narrow the apparent width of a wall space. It is best to have such line
+effects indistinct unless they appear as in the illustration on page 63,
+where they are intended to reduce the breadth effect of the pattern and
+neutralize a squat tendency.
+
+Indistinct perpendiculars give height effect, and do not reduce the wall
+width.

+
+#COLOR TERMS#
+
+120. In the study of color and its application authorities differ so
+materially that it is not only impossible to reconcile their theories,
+but the different terms used to express color thought create
+inextricable confusion.
+
+121. One authority fixes the neutrals as being black, gray and white;
+another regards them as those hues or tones which lack definite color,
+like quaternaries. Authorities differ, moreover, upon even the
+fundamental principles. Chevreuil selects red, yellow and blue as the
+primaries; Dr. Thomas Young selects red, green and violet. Helmholtz
+selects carmine, pale green and blue-violet; Maxwell scarlet red,
+emerald green and blue-violet; Professor Rood agrees with Maxwell;
+Professor Church, of the Royal Academy of Arts, London, regards the
+primaries as red, green and blue; George Hurst, the English authority,
+fixes upon red, yellow and blue, the Brewsterian theory.
+
+122. One must remember always in studying color that we are treating
+with the material, not with the illusion. We are dealing with pigments,
+not with prismatic phenomena, and it must be obvious that the only three
+primary colors that can be used in a way to produce all other colors are
+red, yellow and blue.
+
+123. Whatever may be the spectrum theories of Sir Isaac Newton, Young or
+Helmholtz, for practical reasons we prefer to follow an authority as
+eminent as Chevreuil, for years the head of the National Gobelin Works
+of France, and a man experienced in the practice as well as the theory
+of color. Any effort to fix the character of color and describe it by
+periods and epochs will always prove unsatisfactory, for the reason that
+terms and expressions have changed with every period since the Egyptian,
+4000 B.C.
+
+124. We think we know purple until we discover that the purple of
+royalty, the ermine and purple, the purple of the cardinals' robes,
+frequently approximated what we now call carmine. Royal purple and
+Venetian blue are mere trade terms. Practical men in the purchase of
+things decorative soon discover that color terms convey only individual
+impressions and no distinctive qualities that may be relied upon; so
+that any effort to fix the color value by periods would be futile. We
+may assume that in the age of oak, mahogany, white and gold or walnut
+furniture, the fabric and wall colors harmonized with the wood colors,
+and to that degree we may fix the period character of color. The moment
+that the tone of the woodwork or the light conditions varied, color
+character varied also.
+
+125. We must also bear well in mind that colors which have come down to
+us as examples of ancient times have been subjected to the changing
+influences of centuries, and have faded and altered. The colors on the
+walls of the historic rooms of European palaces have greatly altered.
+The flat reds and the deadish blues of the Pompeiian frescoes have been
+altered by chemical action during the 1,850 years' burial under the lava
+of Vesuvius. We are not justified in judging of the colors of A.D. 79
+by the restoration-examples in 1900. Hence the mere expressions
+Pompeiian red, Pompeiian blue, can convey no definite, positive meaning.
+
+

+
+#COLOR VOCABULARY#
+
+126. In music, a tone which is formed by a certain number of vibrations
+per second is the same the world over, and each and every tone has a
+name; but in color no such standards exist. People have attempted to
+formulate a system by denominating the primary colors, red, yellow and
+blue, respectively as R, Y and B, and the combinations of these colors
+as combinations of letters. For example, red, with varying degrees of
+yellow added, is denominated by the letters R R O, or R O R, or O O R.
+This system tends to confusion, and is inadequate to express tints and
+shades. Various other systems have been devised. Color charts have been
+made, and in each system arbitrary names have been assigned, so that
+each color may be known by one of several names. The difficulty of
+insuring accuracy under these circumstances becomes very evident.
+
+127. In discussing color combinations, one is usually confused because
+the subject is not a tangible expression that can be grasped like the
+sound of a note in music. With color charts, every maker has a standard
+of his own and the term "red" may mean anything within a wide range; a
+yellow-red or a blue-red, the yellow-red perhaps being cherry, the
+blue-red perhaps being carmine. An appreciation of the Harmonies of
+Contrast or Harmonies of Analogy or Relationship is accompanied by great
+confusion because of this lack of standardization.
+
+128. There is only one true standard of color, and that is the standard
+as shown in the prism, and expressed by the spectrum. It is within the
+province of any man to determine the proper relationship of color if he
+starts with the chart we here present. We fix definitely the three
+primary and the three secondary colors, the primaries, red, yellow and
+blue, being those indicated by the heavy black lines; the secondaries,
+orange, green and violet, being indicated by the broad stipple lines.
+
+All other lines are the tertiary or quaternary colors.
+
+If we have clearly in our minds the appearance of the normal red and
+yellow, and clearly in our minds the orange that is made up by combining
+the two, we ought to be able to fix in our imagination the colors that
+come midway between the red and the orange, or the colors that come
+nearer the red or nearer the orange. Let us assume we are to select
+colors in the harmony of _contrast_. Take a ruler and lay across the
+chart and the contrasting colors are always opposite; the direct
+contrast of red is green because green is composed of the other two
+primary colors, yellow and blue; the contrast of blue is orange because
+orange is a combination of the other two primaries, yellow and red; the
+contrast of yellow is violet, a combination of blue and red.
+
+Now, to determine the niceties of distinction, let us take a red that is
+a little off shade, a little yellowish; one must determine in the mind's
+eye about how much yellow there is in it and, to determine the true
+contrast, carry your line across from the point which you think is
+represented by the yellowish and you find that it is green with a little
+blue added, or bluish-green.
+
+129. One must also determine the scale of color. The parallel circular
+lines on the chart designate four scales, or four grades, of each color,
+growing lighter by adding white, to the center; as you add more and more
+white the tint becomes more and more light. In determining contrast, be
+careful to stick to your scale. Contrasts, to be in harmony, must be
+colors of the same scale.
+
+130. Harmony of analogy or relationship is clearly expressed in the
+chart. The family relations of red are the things which go with red. We
+may have a harmony of analogy in violet which includes the relations of
+red and blue. We must not attempt to carry the family relationship too
+far. There is a wide range of variety in these combinations of analogy
+because they may include not only all scales of each color from the
+darkest tones to the lightest tints but they include tertiaries and
+quaternaries.
+
+Each man must establish his own standard, and by establishing it he
+forms unconsciously a very comprehensive understanding of color. It has
+never been possible to print a true colored chart because no two copies
+of the sheet off the press would be alike. A little more ink or a little
+less ink, or a little lighter or a little heavier impression, changes
+the values.
+
+The chart illustrates contrasts of all of the primaries and secondary
+colors and the broken colors or hues. In the same way the tertiary or
+quaternary colors may be arranged, but for convenience we show the
+contrasts as follows:

+131. One who attempts to make color compositions with no more reliable
+guide than taste can expect to accomplish no more than he who in music
+possesses a good ear but no musical training.
+
+132. The note of discord in color is best avoided by an infallible
+guide, as the discord in music is best avoided by thorough training in
+the law of harmony. The color chart on page 73 has been so arranged that
+each of the shades is in exact harmony with the shade directly opposite.
+
+133. For example, to ascertain the color that is in harmony with the
+shade denominated Red-Orange, it is necessary simply to lay a ruler
+across the diagram to find the corresponding harmony, which is
+Blue-Green.
+
+134. We know that the primary colors are red, yellow and blue, and that
+the combination of any two of these gives a secondary color. The
+secondary color is the complement of the remaining third color; thus
+yellow and blue form green, and green is the complement or contrasting
+harmony of red. Red and yellow form orange, and orange is the complement
+of blue. Blue and red form violet, and violet is the complement of
+yellow. These are facts we all know. Now, if red is the complement or
+contrasting harmony of green, and yellow contrasts with violet, then red
+with one, two or three degrees of yellow added will contrast with green
+with one, two or three degrees of blue added.
+
+Assume, for example, that a decorator dealing with a red side-wall
+wishes upholsterings in the correct shade of green. He knows he has a
+red wall, he knows also that he wishes to use some shade of green, but
+without some fixed standard it is impossible for him to do more than
+approximate the correct shade of green to use. If, however, he could
+compare the red of his wall with his color chart and determine exactly
+which of the many shades of red, or which of the many yellow reds, or
+blue reds, the wall is toned in, it is a simple process to ascertain the
+exact green harmonizing with this red.
+
+The second great use of the color chart is then an infallible guide to
+color harmony, whether analagous or contrasting.

+
+#ARTIFICIAL LIGHTING#
+
+135. In considering artificial light, we will avoid all efforts to
+analyze the different forms of energy, magnetic energy, electric energy,
+heat energy, mechanical momentum, radiating energy, and deal with result
+rather than with cause and effect. It will be sufficient to state as the
+deduction of the scientist that certain waves or vibrations which affect
+the fibers of the optic nerve are transmitted by the brain into color.
+(¶ 3.) Self-luminous bodies are bodies which produce light. Illuminated
+bodies shine by borrowed light, and are distinguished by the different
+amounts and quantities of light which they reflect. A dense cloud which
+appears nearly black when between the observer's eye and the sun, owing
+to the degree of density with which it intercepts the light, may become
+brilliantly white when the sun's rays fall upon its constituent
+particles, for the light which cannot penetrate the cloud is continually
+reflected to and from the surface of its minute parts. Thus it happens
+that the lower part of a cloud seen against a background of dark
+mountain may appear white, while the upper part may appear dull gray. In
+the alteration of reflection we have an alteration of color. A stick of
+sealing wax will show in some positions white reflected light, while in
+other positions we see only the red. A polished plane furnishes one kind
+of reflection, a piece of chalk another.
+
+136. The decorator has for years past been disposed to defer to the
+illuminating engineer in the artificial lighting of a home. But while
+the technical man or engineer may have a knowledge of power and energy,
+he has not studied the decorative value of lighting. His problem has
+been economic rather than psychologic. The illuminating engineer cannot
+be expected to appreciate fully the harmonies of color in decoration.
+
+137. It is the decorator's province to consider not only the power of
+light in the furnishing of a house, but the character of the light--not
+only its color influence, but the structural character of its
+introduction, as affecting these furnishings. It is beyond his province
+to determine whether carbon should be replaced by tantalum, osmium or
+tungsten to get higher efficiency, but he must understand the effects of
+these lights and prescribe accordingly.
+
+
+#ABSORPTION AND REFLECTION#
+
+138. The architect who designates the number and location of outlets for
+the lighting sources, and specifies the candle-power of the lamps, knows
+nothing of the ultimate decoration of the house. Very often the
+specifications are finished before the color scheme has been decided
+upon, and as a result the degree of illumination either falls short of
+what is needed in case of dark-colored interiors, or proves excessive
+with light-tinted rooms. The architect works from one point, economy,
+the decorator from another, aesthetic; while the householder, the
+consumer who pays the illuminating bills, cannot comprehend why his
+lighting bills increase as his taste for luminous or dark-colored
+furnishings is gratified. Many houses are left in the white plaster for
+a year or more until the plaster settles. In this condition a small unit
+of light is sufficient, but when the decorator completes his work,
+adding fabrics and wall-papers which absorb and diminish the light, the
+householder, unaware of the cause, notices a material increase in his
+bills for illumination. These facts must be understood to be remedied,
+and it remains for the illuminating engineer to determine by direct
+experiment the value of any light as it affects and influences color, as
+well as the value of color as it affects light. It may be assumed
+without danger that the softest light is that of the candle, but we are
+not living in the candle age, and have to deal with either gas or
+electricity as the main illuminating agents.
+
+139. We have to consider the mercury arc light, the yellow flame carbon,
+the white magnetite and titanium arc--all of high efficiency, giving
+orange yellow in the flame-carbon to yellow and yellow white in the
+acetyline of the tungsten filaments. Then we have the greenish yellow of
+the Welsbach mantle, the bluish green of the mercury arc, the yellowish
+white of the carbon arc, as well as the clear white of the titanium
+arc.
+
+140. The subject may be divided into three heads: Quality, or
+approximation to natural light. Quantity, as demanded by reflection or
+absorption. Installation, diffusion or mechanical distribution.
+
+141. Normal light is the light of general diffusion in daylight, and
+when we can find an artificial light that has the character of natural
+light we will have what is obviously the best illuminant for the home.
+Bear in mind that natural light as it appears out of doors is materially
+altered when indoors by the presence of different planes and angles,
+which cast and receive various depths of shadow; the quality required is
+that which will provide illumination without glare. The sun's rays are
+softened and mellowed by the depth of air through which they pass, and
+it is this mellowness that is the chief requisite in illumination.
+
+Good decorative illumination does not mean illumination that reveals
+every hidden corner of a room. We need shadows to betray form, relieve
+monotony and give depth to the _ensemble_. If in an illuminated area
+light is of a uniform intensity, we have a bad effect. The variation of
+tone in a fabric is due to the light reaching it from a given point.
+Differences in intensity make shadows and tones.
+
+142. The illuminating engineer treats the home as he treats a public
+hall. He ignores the individuality of the room; the ball-room and the
+sickroom are lighted alike. He does not always consider the diminished
+force of light as it passes through a refracting surface, for it must be
+borne in mind that any method of indirect lighting by refraction is apt
+to cause a loss of volume. The use of various kinds of globes or lamp
+shades must all be considered. A light-colored wall reflects
+illumination, a dark-colored wall absorbs it; hence the amount of
+illumination is increased or diminished by the color of the walls.
+
+
+#LIGHT EFFECT ON COLOR#
+
+143. To illuminate a city, with the dull grim environment of streets and
+houses, a soft yellow glow will give warmth and tone; the greenish
+yellow of the Welsbach or the blue green of the mercury arc may even be
+desirable, but the same green or violet rays are ghastly in a house, and
+should never be permitted.
+
+144. The warm glow of the yellow light, while pleasing to the
+complexion, is, however, objectionable as disturbing the color
+composition of dress or furnishings. A gaslight sends a yellow glow over
+all that it reaches, and has the same effect as the introduction of
+yellow into every color tint in the room. The walls that are red take on
+a scarlet hue; the scarlet ones are yellowed to orange; the blues become
+greenish.
+
+145. In order that the decorator may more readily grasp the subject, we
+have arranged a table showing the color changes effected by rays of
+yellow, blue, green and violet:
+
+ Orange rays falling on white make it appear orange.
+ " " red it appears reddish-orange.
+ " " orange it appears deeper orange.
+ " " yellow it appears orange-yellow.
+ " " green it appears dark yellow-green.
+ " " blue it appears dark reddish-gray.
+ " " violet it appears dark purplish-gray.
+ " " black it appears brownish-black.
+
+ Yellow rays falling on white make it appear yellow.
+ " " red make it appear orange-brown.
+ " " orange make it appear orange-yellow.
+ " " yellow make it appear deeper yellow.
+ " " green make it appear yellowish-green.
+ " " blue make it appear slaty-gray.
+ " " violet make it appear purplish-gray.
+ " " black make it appear olive-black.
+
+ Green rays falling on white make it appear green.
+ " " red make it appear yellowish-brown.
+ " " orange make it appear grayish-leaf-green.
+ " " yellow make it appear yellowish-green.
+ " " green make it appear deeper green.
+ " " blue make it appear bluish-green.
+ " " violet make it appear bluish-gray.
+ " " black make it appear dark greenish-gray.
+
+ Blue rays falling on white make it appear blue.
+ " " red make it appear purple.
+ " " orange make it appear plum-brown.
+ " " yellow make it appear yellowish-gray.
+ " " green make it appear bluish-green.
+ " " blue make it appear deeper blue.
+ " " violet make it appear bluer.
+ " " black make it appear bluish-black.
+
+ Violet rays falling on white make it appear violet.
+ " " red make it appear purple.
+ " " orange make it appear reddish-gray.
+ " " yellow make it appear purplish-gray.
+ " " green make it appear bluish-gray.
+ " " blue make it appear bluish-violet.
+ " " violet make it appear deeper violet.
+ " " black make it appear violet-black.
+
+146. The pale tints of electric lights, which make every face in a room
+look ghastly, will affect quite as disastrously every soft color in the
+furnishings. In ordinary gaslight a pair of white gloves looks yellow,
+and we have seen Welsbach lamps which threw out a violet-blue
+illumination, depressing in the extreme. Under a yellow glow, blues,
+greens, violets and purples are greatly changed. Under a violet glow,
+yellows and greens are ruined. To see all colors in about the same value
+that they possess by daylight one must have a light in which no color
+tone is apparent.
+
+The question as to the disposition and intensity of the lights is of
+vital importance, and must be considered with the requirements of each
+particular room in mind.
+
+147. For the drawing-room and reception-room it is desirable that all
+parts of the room be evenly lighted, without a pronounced glare in any
+particular part of the room. One of the most effective ways of
+accomplishing this is by distributing the lights around the room, either
+on the ceiling, in the cove or above a wide molding, so that the ceiling
+acts as a reflecting agent, and distributes an even tone of light to all
+parts.
+
+
+#ILLUMINATION#
+
+148. For the dining-room and living-room a different plan must be used,
+because of the different requirements. The table is usually in such
+rooms the chief feature of the furnishings, and it is customary to focus
+upon it the main body of light. While this is obviously necessary, the
+surroundings must not be ignored; neither is it possible to raise the
+center light to such a height that its radiation may reach all parts of
+the room, because in so doing the light reaches the eye at an extremely
+unpleasant angle. The drop fixture should be low enough to effectively
+light all parts of the table, while at the same time its shade should
+screen the light from the eyes of the room's occupants. To illuminate
+the surrounding parts of the room other lights should be distributed
+where they will most effectively supply what further illumination is
+required.
+
+149. For the bedroom or boudoir the location of the lights should also
+be subordinated to the purposes of the room, and in addition to
+providing sufficient illumination to the entire area, special
+illumination should be provided for the mirrors and the dressing-table.
+The lights for the mirrors should be planned to illuminate the person
+and not the image.
+
+150. For large reception-rooms in hotels and public institutions the
+plan is frequently adopted of having all light provided by small table
+lamps with opalescent shades. These provide a medium glow throughout the
+entire room that is pleasing, and avoid entirely the garishness usually
+associated with such rooms. One of the mistakes of the day is the use of
+high-power lights, which are so intense that they require to be screened
+or shaded, involving waste of light and concentrating an unnecessary
+amount of illumination upon a narrow sphere.
+
+
+#REFLECTIVE POWER OF COLOR#
+
+The following table will give an idea of the percentage of light
+reflected from ordinary wall-hangings and papers:
+
+ Per Cent.
+ Reflection
+
+ White blotting-paper .82
+ White cartridge-paper .80
+ Ordinary foolscap .70
+ Ordinary newspaper .50 to .70
+ Chrome yellow paper .62
+ Orange paper .50
+ Yellow wall-paper .40
+ Yellow painted wall (clean) .40
+ Tracing cloth, pale blue .35
+ Light pink paper .36
+ Blue paper .25
+ Emerald green .18
+ Dark brown paper .13
+ Vermilion paper .12
+ Blue green paper .12
+ Cobalt blue paper .12
+ Black paper 0.5
+ Deep chocolate paper 0.4
+ French ultramarine blue paper 3.5
+ Black cloth 1.2
+ Black velvet 0.4
+
+151. It is very difficult to select practical artificial illuminants,
+because of the various color properties possessed by each. A Welsbach
+mantle, which gives a greenish tint, is pretty sure to alter the
+character of any color other than green. Incandescent electric light, as
+well as ordinary gaslight, contains a yellow tint.
+
+
+#THE COLOR OF ARTIFICIAL LIGHTS#
+
+152. In planning or matching colors for a room, it is best to consider
+the purpose for which the room is to be used, and match the colors under
+the same light conditions that will prevail in the finished room.
+
+Deep, full colors are less affected by the shadings in artificial
+illuminants than lighter tones of the same color.
+
+ ILLUMINANT. COLOR.
+
+ Sun (high in sky) White.
+ Sun (near horizon) Orange red.
+ Sky light Bluish white.
+ Electric arc (short) White.
+ Electric arc (long) Bluish white to violet.
+ Nernst lamp White.
+ Incandescent (normal) Yellow-white.
+ Incandescent (below voltage) Orange to orange-red.
+ Acetyline flame Nearly white.
+ Welsbach light Greenish white.
+ Gaslight (Siemens burner) Nearly white, faint yellow tinge.
+ Gaslight (ordinary) Yellowish white to pale orange.
+ Kerosene lamp Yellowish white to pale orange.
+ Candle Orange yellow.
+
+
+#ARTIFICIAL LIGHT APPLICATION#
+
+153. The introduction of light by the medium of a wire, which may be
+carried to any point in a room, encourages so many possibilities for
+comfort and effect that it behooves us to forget traditional customs
+which were established during the gaslight period. The introduction of
+gaslight through tubes was a rather complex problem, and the carrying of
+the pipes into the room through a main chandelier was the most
+advisable constructive form. But we have no need for such cumbersome
+fixtures in this day of wiring.
+
+A mere cord takes the place of an inch pipe. Modern German and Austrian
+lighting fixtures frequently are mere pendants, with the cord frankly in
+evidence. In this way the lights may be placed wherever needed--at the
+head of the lounge, so one may read more clearly by it; close by the
+piano; over the tea-table. In fact, supplementary lights to the general
+illumination are a convenience that the decorator should consider.
+
+154. The lighting of a house is a matter so dependent upon aesthetic
+conditions that it is never within the scope of the electrician. It is a
+problem for a decorator alone to solve. Intense and glaring lights of
+unusual power must be avoided. Luminants of low intrinsic brilliancy are
+preferable.
+
+155. The floor is the least important surface for illumination, and has
+no reflecting power of value. The walls vary in value according to their
+color and surface. With lights radiating upward, however, the ceiling
+possesses definite power, and should be considered.
+
+156. Dark colors absorb light, while white and light colors reflect, and
+this must always be remembered; for upon the character of the
+decorations and furnishings of various rooms the quantity as well as the
+quality of light has serious influence.
+
+
+#POWER NECESSARY#
+
+157. While the list which we give herewith is based largely upon area,
+it may be taken as a basis of calculation for lighting equipment.
+
+It is estimated that 300 square feet of a hallway requires four
+sixteen-candlepower, or eight eight-candlepower units.
+
+In a room 20 x 20 feet, with furnishings of mahogany and green, broken
+up by bookcases and other furniture producing heavy shadows, it is
+estimated that twelve eight-candlepower lights are sufficient if worked
+into the frieze, and that a reading lamp of not less than
+thirty-two-candlepower be used as a drop light.
+
+Assuming a room is 15 x 15 feet, and furnished in light tones, four
+eight-candlepower lamps are ample.
+
+A living-room 20 x 25 feet, in light tones of color, requires two
+thirty-two-candlepower lights, centrally located, and about twelve
+eight-candlepower lights. This should provide brilliant illumination.
+
+A room 15 x 20 feet, in dark wood and hangings, needs eight
+eight-candlepower reflector lamps, backed up by six more
+eight-candlepower lamps.
+
+Bedrooms 15 x 15 feet in size, where they are not furnished in deep
+colors, should be equipped with two sixteen-candlepower lights.
+
+
+#COLOR CONTROL#
+
+158. Mechanical lighting is so easily undertaken that it predisposes one
+to extravagance. Properly applied, artificial light adds materially to
+the charm of a room, but with illumination secured by the mere twist of
+the wrist one is prone to ignore the value of shadows and kill the
+beauty of light and shade by throwing illumination into the remotest
+corners. The danger to good decoration is not only in overlighting, but
+in overdecorating, and commercialism naturally encourages this tendency.
+The floor is frequently best treated if not entirely covered with a
+one-pattern treatment; the walls are frequently most pleasing if done in
+several papers instead of one. The most effective room is the one
+lighted in various degrees of strength, and while the decorator
+unconsciously follows this idea and avoids superabundance of pattern by
+using panels, friezes and wainscotings, we believe that each and every
+section or part of a room should be treated separately, observing, of
+course, a consistent spirit of design, preserving the period style and
+the general color effect; we would vary the actual shade of coloring and
+the size of pattern according to the dimensions of the wall space it
+occupies. The large patterns and the strong colorings which may be
+appropriate to an exposed wall are all out of proportion in narrow or
+darkened confines. Dark and deep recesses should obviously be treated
+differently to advanced or conspicuous spaces.
+
+159. At a recent meeting of the Illuminating Engineering Society, D.
+McFarlan Moore made the following observations: "A few years ago there
+was practically no way of changing the colors of the various forms of
+lamps, that is, the candle had its color perforce; such a thing as
+modifying it was not dreamed of. The oil lamp had its color; the open
+burner gas flame its color, the incandescent lamp its color, and the
+arc lamp its color. At the present time there are only two ways widely
+in use of varying the color; that is, if a person wishes to have a light
+of a different color, there are two main ways of getting it. One way is
+to get another light source, and the other way is to use a diffusion
+globe of some kind, which in any instance is extremely unscientific and
+inefficient. Some of the most recent advances in this line are connected
+with the flaming arc lamp. There we have an instance where the first
+step, at least, was taken toward scientifically controlling the color
+value. I refer to placing different chemicals in the carbon and thereby
+obtaining a color which can, to a very great extent, be determined
+previously. But still it by no means can be said that by means of the
+flaming arc lamp the color factor is under perfect control. However, it
+is possible now to have the color value under perfect control, and this
+is obtained by utilizing a vacuum tube, and by changing the various
+gases used in the tube to change the color. This has many advantages,
+and from a scientific standpoint it cannot be criticised, as can the
+other methods which have been used. For example, if you use a properly
+regulated vacuum tube and feed it with air only, a pink light results;
+if you feed it with nitrogen a yellow light results, and such a light
+can be used for a great many purposes; in fact its range of usefulness
+so far as the color is concerned, is about the same as that of the
+ordinary incandescent lamp, and therefore can be used by florists or by
+clothing merchants, and the distortion is not any worse than that of
+the ordinary incandescent lamp. However, it is not by any means claimed
+that when a tube is fed nitrogen, that the color is at all near
+daylight; it is simply a color which appears about the same as that
+produced by the ordinary incandescent lamp. Due to the enormous
+radiating surfaces of the tube, the color in day time looks considerably
+redder than that of the incandescent lamp because the lamp is extremely
+small as compared with the tube. When such a tube is fed with carbon
+dioxide at a definite pressure, and at a definite intensity, a light is
+obtained that undoubtedly is closer to average daylight color values
+than any light which has ever been produced before, and we can almost
+say that it is entirely satisfactory. For instance, experts in matching
+colors in the largest dye works of this country, men who have tried all
+other forms of light, and found them not at all suitable for their uses,
+have matched their colors under a vacuum tube supplied with carbon
+dioxide and have found after months of practical use that they could not
+detect any difference between most delicate lavender shades, when they
+are matched at night time under the tube and in day time by daylight,
+not direct sunlight."
+
+
+#DRESS AND COMPLEXION#
+
+160. The nerves of the eye, exhilarated by any pronounced color,
+unconsciously observe the complement of that color when turned from it.
+The eye accustomed to the red of a woman's dress, unconsciously sees a
+greenish cast in the face that is naturally pale, and in the same way
+the pallor of a woman's face takes on a tint of red as the complement
+or contrast of a green dress. As one's appetite for the thing that is
+sweet becomes exhausted by a superabundance of sweets, so the eye
+resting upon a mass of red in the dress of a woman fails to appreciate
+the red tint in the face, and the face thus juxtaposed becomes pallid. A
+red-faced woman often wears brighter red in dress, so that her face may
+appear less red. The blue dress gives yellow to the face; the yellow
+dress gives blue; these results are altered materially by the
+intervention of white between the face and the dress. White intensifies
+color. If there is a tinge of pink in the face white brings it out. If
+there is sallowness in the face white accentuates it. It is for this
+reason that many women wear yellow instead of white at the neck, so that
+the yellow of the face becomes less conspicuous by contrast. (See ¶ 31.)
+
+161. It is dangerous, however, in matters of dress to strictly apply
+this rule, because color has a temperamental influence apart from the
+purely visual. Some women are positively depressed by certain colors;
+such colors are to be avoided, no matter what the deductions of theory.
+(See ¶ 94.)
+
+162. The black dress will make a woman look pale, for the reason that
+the black absorbs whatever color there may be in her face. A dark color
+has also absorbent characteristics. The lighter the color, the less
+absorbent. Hence light greens are preferable to bring out the color in
+the face than dark greens, assuming that we are to consider only this
+point, which is all that is necessary to consider in house decoration.
+Therefore light greens as a background to theater boxes or as a wall
+background are always desirable.
+
+ [Illustration: Lighting by wires. See ¶ 153.]
+
+
+#COLOR TERMS#
+
+ BROKEN COLOR. Color changed by the addition of black,
+ white or gray.
+
+ CHROMA. Color.
+
+ COLD COLORS are colors containing very little, if any, red or
+ yellow.
+
+ CONTRAST ANALOGIES. Apparent contrasts of secondary and
+ tertiary colors which have constituent parts that are
+ related. Thus compositions of citrine and plum are apparent
+ contrasts, citrine being one of the three tertiary
+ colors, russet, slate and citrine, and plum being composed
+ of russet and slate, but in both citrine and plum
+ there is red, yellow and blue; hence related. There can
+ be no true contrasts excepting between primaries and
+ secondaries.
+
+ GRAY. Normal gray is black and white mixed, but quaternary
+ colors are also called grays, or colors of the dull or
+ neutral scale.
+
+ HARMONY OF ANALOGY is produced by using related colors.
+
+ HARMONY OF CONTRAST. The juxtaposition of a primary
+ color, for example, with a secondary made of the other
+ two primaries. Thus of the primaries red, yellow and
+ blue, the contrasts would be red and green. Of the two
+ colors thus forming contrast the one is said to be the
+ COMPLEMENTARY of the other.
+
+ HUE. Applied to the predominating color in a composition.
+
+ INTENSE OR SATURATED COLORS. Colors that are pure, having
+ no tint or shade.
+
+ NEUTRAL COLORS. Applied to black, gray and quaternary
+ colors.
+
+ NORMAL. Intense colors of the prism. Colors of the natural
+ scale.
+
+ PRISMATIC COLORS are the colors viewed through a prism.
+
+ QUATERNARY COLORS. Made by combining two tertiary colors.
+ Quaternary colors are plum, sage and buff.
+
+ SCALE. Relates to colors of the same degree of tone.
+
+ SECONDARY COLORS. Orange, green and violet, each a combination
+ of two primaries.
+
+ SHADE. Produced by the addition of black to a normal color.
+
+ SOMBRE COLORS. Blue, violet and the subdued tones of luminous
+ colors.
+
+ SPECTRUM. The illusion of color produced by means of the
+ prism.
+
+ TERTIARY COLORS. Made by combining two secondary colors;
+ tertiary colors are slate, russet and citrine.
+
+ TINT. Produced by the addition of white to a normal color.
+
+ TONES are the gradations of color by adding either black or
+ white.
+
+ WARM COLORS or luminous colors are those having normal
+ yellow or red in the preponderance.
+
+ ADVANCING COLORS. Reds and bright yellow arouse the nerve
+ sense more quickly than blue or tones of color predominating
+ in blue. Hence they are called advancing colors.
+
+ RECEDING COLORS. Blue colors or colors in which blue predominate
+ or the exciting influences of yellow or red are
+ subjugated, are cold or receding colors.

+Section 2. Information about the Mission of Project Gutenberg-tm
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm is synonymous with the free distribution of
+electronic works in formats readable by the widest variety of computers
+including obsolete, old, middle-aged and new computers. It exists
+because of the efforts of hundreds of volunteers and donations from
+people in all walks of life.
+
+Volunteers and financial support to provide volunteers with the
+assistance they need, is critical to reaching Project Gutenberg-tm's
+goals and ensuring that the Project Gutenberg-tm collection will
+remain freely available for generations to come. In 2001, the Project
+Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation was created to provide a secure
+and permanent future for Project Gutenberg-tm and future generations.
+To learn more about the Project Gutenberg Literary Archive Foundation
+and how your efforts and donations can help, see Sections 3 and 4
+and the Foundation web page at https://www.pglaf.org.

+Section 4. Information about Donations to the Project Gutenberg
+Literary Archive Foundation
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm depends upon and cannot survive without wide
+spread public support and donations to carry out its mission of
+increasing the number of public domain and licensed works that can be
+freely distributed in machine readable form accessible by the widest
+array of equipment including outdated equipment. Many small donations
+($1 to $5,000) are particularly important to maintaining tax exempt
+status with the IRS.
+
+The Foundation is committed to complying with the laws regulating
+charities and charitable donations in all 50 states of the United
+States. Compliance requirements are not uniform and it takes a
+considerable effort, much paperwork and many fees to meet and keep up
+with these requirements. We do not solicit donations in locations
+where we have not received written confirmation of compliance. To
+SEND DONATIONS or determine the status of compliance for any
+particular state visit https://pglaf.org
+
+While we cannot and do not solicit contributions from states where we
+have not met the solicitation requirements, we know of no prohibition
+against accepting unsolicited donations from donors in such states who
+approach us with offers to donate.
+
+International donations are gratefully accepted, but we cannot make
+any statements concerning tax treatment of donations received from
+outside the United States. U.S. laws alone swamp our small staff.
+
+Please check the Project Gutenberg Web pages for current donation
+methods and addresses. Donations are accepted in a number of other
+ways including including checks, online payments and credit card
+donations. To donate, please visit: https://pglaf.org/donate

+
+Section 5. General Information About Project Gutenberg-tm electronic
+works.
+
+Professor Michael S. Hart was the originator of the Project Gutenberg-tm
+concept of a library of electronic works that could be freely shared
+with anyone. For thirty years, he produced and distributed Project
+Gutenberg-tm eBooks with only a loose network of volunteer support.
+
+
+Project Gutenberg-tm eBooks are often created from several printed
+editions, all of which are confirmed as Public Domain in the U.S.
+unless a copyright notice is included. Thus, we do not necessarily
+keep eBooks in compliance with any particular paper edition.
+
+
+Most people start at our Web site which has the main PG search facility:
+
+ https://www.gutenberg.org
+
+This Web site includes information about Project Gutenberg-tm,
+including how to make donations to the Project Gutenberg Literary
+Archive Foundation, how to help produce our new eBooks, and how to
+subscribe to our email newsletter to hear about new eBooks.
