Dopamine Home: A bold guide to mood-boosting interiors (Hardback) - Rachel Verney

A beautifully illustrated, accessible guide to bold, brave and colourful interiors by interiors influencer @the_shoestring_home.

Create a joyful, mood-boosting home through the transformative power of dopamine decor.

Everything about dopamine decor should spark pleasure. Instead of a specific design aesthetic, it's all about what makes you happy. No two dopamine homes are the same, as it's so intrinsically linked with your personal style and what gets your neurotransmitters pumping. Typically, though, dopamine decor is seen as a bold use of colour, energetic patterns, a mixture of textures and an eye for details. This mood-enhancing aesthetic focuses on filling your home with things you love and that brings joy and happiness.

Packed full of ideas for every budget, interiors expert Rachel Verney shares her creative design process, colour know-how and interior hacks to make every corner of your home a colourful, dopamine-inducing haven.

Whether you're looking for cost-friendly 'mini upgrades with maximum impact', or large-scale inspiration as part of a renovation, Rachel guides you through the core principles of dopamine decor room by room, showing you to implement them as you transform your space.

With easy-to-follow practical projects to get you started, including:
* How to paint tiles
* Upholster your own headboard
* Upcycle a cocktail cabinet
* Build your own planter pergola
