Help! I am building a house and I am having a hard time colors!?
I am a graphic designer - you would think I would be good at this kind of thing but I am stuck. My boyfriend and I are building a house. I want our kitchen walls to be a wine/maroon color - we are going to have a nook, so the wine color will also be in the nook. Our living room is right next to the nook (open area). Our original plan was to put marroon carpets in the living room. Too much Maroon!! Now I am stuck. I wanted to put hardwood (which is going to be in the kitchen and nook) in the living room too, and put a rug over the hardwood, but we decided we dont want that much hardwood on the first floor. We want our walls to be a nutural light brown. My other idea was to put a tan carpet instead of the wine/maroon and put big multi colored rug in the middle. I'm not sure if that would look good - I think I have seen someone do that once. If anyone has any ideas I would love to hear them!
I have dark cherry hardwood floors throughout the entire first level of my home, and I love it. There are area rugs in just about every room and runners in the hallways, which helps break up the hardwood and keep it quieter. Our kitchen connects to (what the builder called) a hearth room - just a room with a fireplace that we use as a casual sitting area; I painted one wall of this room a maroon color, and incorporated browns from the furniture by way of a beige and cream area rug and dark brown accents. The opposite wall from the maroon wall happens to be in the kitchen, which I also painted maroon and the other two walls are a very pale tan. Our cabinets are walnut, and the trim is white, and the combination is very complimentary, and I really like it!
Amazon Kindle and Barnes & Noble Nook are the two serious contenders for the title of best e-reader. There are other electronic reading devices on the market, but Kindle and Nook dominate the scene while the others are fading further into the background. So, this is going to be a straight review and comparison of Nook and Kindle as the two market leaders.
Since the launch of the first models of Nook and Kindle, the enhancements of each subsequent version have brought the two contenders closer. It is harder than ever to make a decision as to whether to buy the new Amazon Kindle or the latest Nook. The two models under scrutiny here are the Kindle 3G (+Wi-Fi) and the Nook (Wi-Fi +3G).
Any attempt to compare and contrast Amazon's Kindle 3 and B&N's Nook is bound to highlight their similarities rather than underline any differences. The two e-readers are the same size to within a fraction of an inch. They are the same weight to within a couple of ounces. The battery life of each of them is 10 days of reading.
The Manufacturers' refinements to these two devices have made it very difficult to place either brand in top place. People looking to buy an e-reader have been swayed first towards the Kindle, then towards the Nook and back again. The competition is closer than ever with the two models we are looking at today. It is simply not possible to say that one is obviously superior to the other. So how do you decide on a winner in the Nook vs Kindle battle?
The selection of an e-reader is very much a matter of personal choice. The best way to approach a review of Amazon's Kindle 3 and the Barnes & Noble Nook is to consider how you will use a reading device. How much do you read, what do you read, where do you read? With a clear idea of the way you want to use the reader, you can make a choice on the basis of the following features of each device.
1. International travel. Do you want to be able to download reading matter overseas? The Nook only works within the United States. The Kindle 3 enables you to download books in over 100 countries via GSM network. You can, however, use both of them anywhere in the world to read books you have already downloaded.
2. Weight. The Kindle 3 is lighter (and slightly smaller) than the Nook. The difference is only a couple of ounces, but this might be important to you if you travel a lot.
3. Navigation. The Kindle has push button navigation only. The Nook has touch-screen navigation. Which makes you more comfortable?
4. Memory size. The Kindle 3 can hold up to 3,500 books. The Nook can hold up to 1,500 books. (However, the Nook has an expansion slot to expand the memory if you want to.)
5. Color screen. One other notable difference between the Kindle and the Nook is that the latter offers a color screen. This might not seem of great benefit in a reader, but this feature might be something you would prefer.
Either of these devices will prove to be excellent value for money. The ongoing competition between the two manufacturers has ensured that the quality of the products keeps going up while the prices are kept down. The choice is yours, and you can't lose.
