5.0 out of 5 stars Interior Design Visual Presenations, A Guide to Graphics, Models and Presentation Techniques, April 3, 2008
This review is from: Interior Design Visual Presentation: A Guide to Graphics, Models and Presentation Techniques (Paperback)
Awesome book. Great for all interior design students. Great for your library. Makes learning how to do models, etc., much easier than trying to learn from your instructor's brief instructions.

3.0 out of 5 stars Mitton book review, February 21, 2009
This review is from: Interior Design Visual Presentation: A Guide to Graphics, Models and Presentation Techniques (Paperback)
I use this book primarily as a text book in my advanced rendering class. The presentation aspects are right-on, but some of the drawings are less than perfect. There are a few color plates in the middle that are really helpful as far as having good examples of illustration. I would recommend Doyle's Color Drawing for a book about actually rendering.

This review is from: Interior Design Visual Presentation: A Guide to Graphics, Models and Presentation Techniques (Paperback)
I purchased this book for my final class for my interior design degree. I really think it would have been nice to have had this book in the beginning of my program as well.
