Review
'In an increasingly dark and depressing world, the design duo don't half brighten up proceedings with their refreshing enthusiasm' CLOSER 'Brilliant news for decorators everywhere - design duo Colin and Justin have penned a fabulous house-saving guide to help you right all those interior wrongs. In this camp and colourful book, the boys make it their mission to rid Britain's homes of all design evils. This has tips, hints and advice for every room of the house. And look out for the boys in some fancy costumes along the way!' HOT STARS 'The book follows a "before and after" formula taking readers round the horrendous hallways, sitting rooms and bedrooms before Colin and Justin redesign them in the height of good taste' SCOTSMAN 'As a course of aversion therapy, this book certainly succeeds . . . sound advice, clearly presented. Each chapter contains a list of no-nos and some "points to remember". A helpful index of resources is a sobering reminder that these boys mean business' GLASGOW HERALD 'Our favourite design gurus Justin and Colin deliver a new book . . . As you'd expect, it's chock-full of tips for righting interior design wrongs . . . packed full of practical tips for jazzing up your own home, plus Colin and Justin's amusingly bitchy dialogue: what's not to love?' HEAT 'Essential reading . . . some fabulous pictures of the worst examples of "before" and "after" in a number of homes. It's a coffee table book with a difference' IRISH NEWS 'An entertaining blend of useful advice and inspiration alongside hilarious judgments on some of the most heinous decorative crimes' SUNDAY BUSINESS POST
