This review is from: Terence Conran's New House Book: The Complete Guide To Home Design (Paperback)
I was hoping to get insights from the mind of an interior design artist. My disappointment grew as I made my way through the book. I did not once stop to ponder on advice that was given, I read about simplistic rules, "the use of space is important", "functionality over conventionality". The book is filled with photos but no unifying text that brings a flow of ideas. I would only recommend this book if you want a condensed "how-not-to" book. Otherwise, keep browsing and please let us know of any good finds.
