Color schemes for the home and model interiors . d be coveredwith pongee taupe paper, with ceiling and enameled woodworkseveral tones lighter. Over the ecru net curtains could be hung liand-some cretonne, the colors of which are repeated in tlie finishing these could be used effectively, lambrequins of blue velour, thesame as used for upholstery. Either of these schemes calls for a vivid touch of color, which wouldbe best brought out in shades of dull orange on the center and side-lights. The lighting fixtures could be either dull brass or bronze. Dark oak or walnut fui-niture, rather severe in line, would be inharmony with the slightly formal character of the figuied paper orthe cretoime. There are many beautiful suites of dark oak in simpleJacobean and Italian styles which would be particularly pleasing,though one could with discretion use Georgian or Colonial mahoganyof simple design. The scheme outlined is not necessarily an expensive one, the mainpoint being to adhere as closely as possible to the colors selected. 45. -a S2° S u m o a, I- 5 j-o u o o OS — O 02 EdH o u eg £=oas ill a « a; a; u-3 > O 1 Or= —? m c > = ^ C C ii:S« <a tc mPSSPmCh -- (M CO ?«• irt I * 46
