Drew & Jonathan step into a colorful summer.

Are you wearing sunglasses? Because the amount of color in the latest issue of Drew + Jonathan Reveal just might dazzle you.

If we look a bit bolder and brighter, it’s because, well, we feel it! We all need something to be excited about and look forward to; for us, that’s putting into action all the colorful ideas we’ve been dreaming up.

With nature as our guide—flowers in full bloom, lush trees swaying with ease—what better time than now to take risks and try new things at home? Bring in those oranges and reds from your most memorable beach-vacation sunset. Borrow inspiration from the brightest blue skies for your front-porch refresh. Wake up each morning in a colorful bedroom that’s cozy and welcoming, warm yet invigorating.

We created the Color Issue to be your fun, friendly guidebook to the world of color. Yes, that includes all you color-shy designers out there! In life, as it is with home and design, balance is key. The issue is full of how-tos for using color in ways you’ve only ever imagined to create those spaces you thought were reserved solely for lust-worthy Instagram feeds!
