5.0 out of 5 stars easy lessons on six types of design, July 10, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Creative Room Styles: Room-By Room Guide to Interior Decorating (Home Magic) (Paperback)

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.

This review is from: Creative Room Styles: Room-By Room Guide to Interior Decorating (Home Magic) (Paperback)

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 They are mainly country styles and outdated.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.
