    Book has soft cover. Pages are hard to turn. I am having trouble flipping through it..
    I need a bigger book and it has to be a hardcover.

    A great invest for a home book. I carefully pick my house books because I keep them for life and refer back to them for projects and colors.

    While this book is beautiful to look at, it is not very useful. It is not really a guide to choosing paint. It is a catalog of paint swatches with blurbs about why the interior designer chose that color. On occasion, the blurb will have a nugget of useful information, but a lot of them talk about how the color matches a color they found on their travels. The worst part is that the swatches in the book don’t match the color they are depicting—see the picture for a comparison of the swatch in the book with the swatch in the manufacturer’s paint deck. So if you find a color you like in the book it may be very different than the paint color in real life. This renders the book completely useless.
