"Principles of Home Decoration, With Practical Examples" by Candace Wheeler is an instructional guide on interior design written in the early 20th century. This work focuses on the art of home decoration, exploring the relationship between decoration and architecture, as well as the inherent qualities of various materials and colors. Wheeler emphasizes the importance of a woman's role in creating beautiful surroundings to reflect personal taste while adhering to the principles of harmony and appropriateness. At the start of the book, Wheeler presents a philosophical outlook on decoration as both an art and a personal expression. She discusses the scarcity of authoritative voices in American decoration, hinting at both the challenges and opportunities this presents for individuals seeking to enhance their homes. The opening chapters set the stage for a deeper exploration of color, character, and the interplay between a home’s aesthetics and its functional elements as she urges readers to cultivate a space that resonates with beauty and individuality.
