House Beautiful Kitchens (Great Style)

Rating:
Summary: Kitchens for dummies
Review: I was decieved with this book. First with the text. It describes the obvious. Second, with the pictures. Too much style in questionable taste. The book is not beautiful enough to become a coffee table book and is not practical enough to serve as a reference book. The photos look antiseptic, lifeless and are not very attractive. Altough the intention to make "the house livable" is mentioned in the book, the result proves that to have good intentions is not enough. The kitchen's projects are interesting though. But although they say that "little things mean a lot" I missed a lot of little things in this book. I would not recomend it to anyone. There must be better books about kitchens. I am still looking for them.
