Eve’s new book “The Right Color: Finding the Perfect Palette for Every Room in Your Home” has been 20 years in the making – the length of her career as a taste-making and boundary-pushing architectural colorist. “The topic of color is so abstract and complex,” Eve says, “I think it was wise for me to wait.”
From “Breaking The Color Rules (1-10)” to “Twenty-Eight Colors That Work,” THE RIGHT COLOR is both an inspirational object of beauty and a trusty, approachable guide to putting colors on the wall (and floor, and ceiling!) that make a statement and create a home.
This book is addictive and actionable! Which we love. So many real examples of how to color a room. It's perfect timing too. We have been using her on the downstairs bedroom and the kitchen. You want this beaute. She's a keeper. Take 30 seconds to enter below! Three winners, whoot!

We are redoing our family room fireplace and going from red brick to Pennsylvania field stone. Our kitchen is open to the family room and adjoins, so we are going to paint and spruce up the color pallet in both. The house is so neutral, I want to give a pop of color to our kitchen without making it the sore thumb standing out too much :) I'm thinking a nice mustardy yellow in the kitchen w/grey in the family room w/brown accents. This book would be so great to have as we embark on our endeavor!
Love your blog BTW...my friend Stephanie told me I should check it out about a month ago and LOVE IT!!!!
Just recently painted our family room, living room, and dining room, but I'm stuck on my kitchen! It went from a boring beige to drab yellow and I'm ready for something different.
My kitchen needs help! Its all kind of shades of beige and brown and BLAND!
This book would help= ) What a great givaway! Thanks!

I've been waiting for this book! I desperately have wanted to paint my bedroom for a few years, but have yet to land on the right color. This book will help me decide!
Thanks!
Honestly, I am rethinking the color in our entire house (since it's an open floor plan). Help!
I'm thinking about re-painting my master bedroom and bath.
My niece's room sure could use some color on the walls!
I need to rethink the colors in our living room and office. they are the only 2 rooms in our entire house that i have not painted. we moved in this past july and i managed to tackle all the other rooms except these...
We seriously need to rethink our living room - it's currently prison green, and we have a faded-hunter-green couch...yikes. This book would be a huge help!!!
Ooh, I could use this book! We're renovating our mid-century modern and need the right colors in the bedrooms and kitchen!
Our great room! The entryway, stairwell, living room, dining room, kitchen & hallway all share walls, and I don't know where to begin in painting!
HELP! I just bought a new house and I plan on changing the paint color in every room. I'm excited and nervous. This book would be a lifesaver.
Our bathroom and bedroom both need help. We are moving into new digs where our interventions are limited and I'm hoping for some inspiration.
We have a ton of wood paneling in our house, (literally in EVERY room). So, when the time comes to take that lovely paneling down, we'll have to decide on colors. Having something like this would be a LIFESAVER!
When we moved into our house, we painted the walls in my craft room a light beige, not really thinking of the purpose of the room. I would love to add some color to make it more personalized and creativity-inspiring!
I definitely need to rethink the color in the guest bathroom. When I moved in, there's bright yellow and black tile and as my first dive into homeownership I couldn't wait to paint something, so I chose a deep grey. The bathroom is so dark and gloomy and I need something bright and cheery to go along with my other rooms now!
Many years ago, I thought "ceiling white" would be a good "color" for my bedroom walls and ceiling. So... yeah, my bedroom needs the most help.
I need to rethink the color in our kitchen. I was going for blue/grey but wound up with little boy blue!
We need more color in our grey bathroom
Definately my basement. It's so dark and dingy and I need light and bright!

we need to add some color to all our bedrooms
I need something in my living room to take color up my stairs and into the hallway.
