1.0 out of 5 stars Paver advertisement, April 28, 2007
By 
J. Caputo (Katonah, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Patio Portfolio: An Inspirational Design Guide (Paperback)
I purchased this based on the 4 star review it received, but it was a huge disappointment. Every single photo in this book is taken directly from a paver catalog, which you can get for free. And they all start to look the same after a page or two. It is just the same configurations against different backgrounds. The captions under the photos were the only text in the book and they were pretty bland. I have been reading a lot of home and garden design books as research for a project and this book was by far the worst I have seen.

4.0 out of 5 stars Picture Perfect, August 31, 2005
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Patio Portfolio: An Inspirational Design Guide (Paperback)
Photos are indeed inspirational, giving the view of the finished product for a wide variety of settings. Visuals or perfect pictures of the final results inspire options to give your own ideas form, outline, and color.
