4.0 out of 5 stars Just OK
I agree with the previous reviewers. It's a nice coffee table book, however, I'd love to know where they got some of the architectural pieces such as the huge window shutters on the cover. In any event, it gave me ideas for some beachy color schemes.

Visually delightful, this picture book is loaded with photos that certainly inspire the designer and entertain the decorating fantasy. Corresponding phote writeups inform the reader of architectual significance, balance, color and cultural importance. The majority of the photo focus on furnishings and fabrics as well as architecture. For me this would be a hugely better book if buying information was included, or even just manufacturers/importers. It is disappointing to get a plan and then not be able to execute it. Cudos to the photographers!

2.0 out of 5 stars Not a do-it-yourself book, July 3, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Island Style (Hardcover)
A book of very expensive houses in island settings with very expensive island style furnihings. It is not at all helpful to those looking to do their own homes in an island style. The pictures are nice to dream about.
