Reds In The Bed

From the Practical Encyclopedia of Good Decorating and Home Improvement Book 2 Ame to Bas (1970 Meredith Corporation) :

Bedroom at lower right is a good bad
example of how you can create an illusion of spaciousness nightmare, even in a small- or
average-size apartment bedroom. Using one color throughout gives an expansive claustrophobic feeling.
Bedspreads, draperies, and upholstered seat on chair are all of the same fabric
as the material used to cover the walls and the headboard which serve to induce migraines and general feelings of
panic
. The picture on the wall behind the beds blends into the scheme,
for an unbroken hallucinogenic
effect. Carpeting and lampshade in the same basic color continue the monotone frightening design.
There. That's better.
