Timberframe Interiors [Hardcover]

Book Description

Publication Date: September 13, 2000

Timberframe homes offer an aesthetic appeal that can be achieved with no other building style. Their grace, lightness, and ability to span big interior spaces are much like a canopy of trees over a country lane. While timberframe homes naturally evoke a country or traditional feeling, TIMBERFRAME INTERIORS teaches that you need not confine yourself to that decor. Timberframe construction provides a wonderful beginning to create a warm, friendly atmosphere while responding to a unique set of interior designs and challenges. When the decor and the construction join together to establish a fully integrated look, the result is breathtaking.

5.0 out of 5 stars Decorating Incentives, January 25, 2001

This review is from: Timberframe Interiors (Hardcover)

Timberframe Interiors is a delicious book to be savored by anyone who is in the process of decorating their home, or to be enjoyed by anyone else who simply wants to allow their imagination to soar. Although most of these magnificent homes are expansive, the photos and text provide a rich variety of tips to help anyone add flair to the decoration of even a modest apartment. I can't imagine anyone not being inspired by these homes that approach cathedral-like majesty.

5.0 out of 5 stars Dressing for the home, January 25, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Timberframe Interiors (Hardcover)

With this book you can introduce yourself into the world of home decor. I was fascinated with much of the advice and learned so much about defining space, using color, lighting enhancements and selecting furnishings and finishing touches. The book highlights spaces such as dining rooms, living rooms, great rooms and bathrooms, giving detailed advice and tips on how to get the best look for your space. Interiors also taught me to examine my own personality before starting the journey that will turn my new timberframe home into a reflection of me, my family and the way we like to live.
