5.0 out of 5 stars
A big book with an awful lot of information.,
By
This review is from: Interior Design Reference Manual: A Guide to the NCIDQ Exam (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
Now in it's third edition published in 2006 and brought up to date. This is the standard reference guide to the NCIDQ examination, but more than that this is an excellent reference book into designing the interior of a structure be it a house or a commercial building.
For instance, you may be designing an office that has to meet the Americans for Disabilities Act (ADA) -- How wide must a hallway be to allow two wheel chairs to pass each other? Being an interior designer, especially a self employed interior designer also requires business knowledge. This is also treated with a general introduction to businesses practices from taxes and insurance to the business practices related to other designers. As an 'exam cram' book, there is material on the nature of the test, how to take the exam, even what to take with you to the examination (even suggesting you take aspirin along - just in case). This is a large book, it has a lot of information, it is worthwhile reading if you are just planning to design your own house or office. It is mandatory if you are planning on taking the NCIDQ exam.

This review is from: Interior Design Reference Manual: A Guide to the NCIDQ Exam (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
This is an important book to read if you are studying for the NCIDQ. It is basically a good review of prior Interior Design studies. Well written and clear. A good lesson in how the NCIDQ quesitons are written.

Helpful review for the NCIDQ exam,
By
This review is from: Interior Design Reference Manual: A Guide to the NCIDQ Exam (3rd Edition) (Hardcover)
This version of the review manual is thorough and updated from the first edition. It discusses sustainablility issues, fire protection and current code information with which interior design professionals should be familiar. Even if you are not taking the exam, this book tells you how to operate as a professional and how to protect yourself in the business world of interior design.
