Format:Paperback
I just bought a new home and was looking for ideas to update the bathrooms. This book has some amazing ideas for all types of tastes. However, only 3 starts because lacking fine/important detail about where a fixture/item was purchased from, what paints/finishes were used...etc. A live website that has links would also have been helpful...these omissions make the book less useful that it could have been.
Format:Paperback
Does Anybody actually know where to buy ANY of these sinks?
Looking for the one on page 92! This book is pretty but not useful or helpful enough.

Would be great if I had 40 grand to redo my bathroom. The pics are beautiful, but impractical for a remodel on a budget.
