Chapter 3A — Edible Elegance
When it comes to interior design, color isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s about creating a mood, an experience, and even a craving for comfort. Imagine stepping into a space that feels as warm as a cup of caramel latte, as indulgent as raspberries and cream, or as rich as mocha.
Welcome to the art of edible-inspired interiors, where delicious palettes transform your home into a sensory retreat of warmth, elegance, and coziness.
