Make yours the home beautiful is a 1920 promotional booklet issued by the Lowe Brothers Company, a paint manufacturer, for homeowners choosing exterior and interior colour. The pictures are hand-coloured photographic plates of American houses and rooms, with painted clapboard, brick, shingled roofs, and sample colour schemes. A designer might take from them the period palette of muted yellows, greens, and reds set against white or cream trim.
