Customer Review: Uninspirational - two and half stars perhaps
I'm disappointed in this book. They are mainly country styles and outdated. Even the so-called soft contemporary and scandinavian belong to another era. If you are looking for creative styles or sleek modern for city living , forget it.
Customer Review: easy lessons on six types of design
The book takes Classic, Country Cottge, Romantic, Soft Contemporary, Scandinavian, and Dramatic and other designs and explains their main style pointers. It illustrates each type of design with beautiful photos. It gives these lesson and photo examples first in the livingroom, then bedrooms and halls and bathrooms. Well done.
