I was hoping to get insights from the mind of an interior design artist. My disappointment grew as I made my way through the book. I did not once stop to ponder on advice that was given, I read about simplistic rules, "the use of space is important", "functionality over conventionality". The book is filled with photos but no unifying text that brings a flow of ideas. I would only recommend this book if you want a condensed "how-not-to" book. Otherwise, keep browsing and please let us know of any good finds.

Nice reference book4
Although the text can be a bit tedius at times, this is a good reference book for building a home. I have been searching for a book like this for sometime. While I expected this to be directed a bit more towards the decorating aspect of the home, I was pleasantly surprised to find that it answered many of my questions concering home building. Not a complete reference, but a great start nonetheless.
