Summary: Wonderful Book
Review: This book was a breath of fresh air. I read it cover to cover, then went through it again. You will get furniture layouts, decorating ideas, and information boxes that tackle everything from townhouses to home offices. A pleasure to read and a wonderful reference book.

Review: This was a down to earth decorating book with marvelous pictures. Clearly, the book did not suggest, like many others, that one start from scratch. The colour combinations gave one pause for thought - out of the safe zone on occasions - but marvelous. I have used some of the furniture layout suggestions and the colour combinations of fabrics were especially helpful.

I have a previous book, Dream Rooms for Real People by Carol and it was very good - but this new book is excellent!
