Decorating the Home is a 1926 trade booklet from the National Lead Company, a paint maker, presenting interior decoration advice to American homeowners. Its colour plates show period rooms with painted walls, wallpapers and furnishings, and a designer could draw on their warm plaster-toned wall finishes, damask patterns and considered mixes of antique and modern furniture for muted, layered interiors.
