BUY IT,
This review is from: Tropical interiors (Hardcover)
Wonderful book on contemporary tropical design. Just looking at the pictures transports me to another place! I've even incorporated some of the simple design ideas into my own home. From the simple & serene to the eclectic, you won't be disappointed.

This review is from: Tropical interiors (Hardcover)
In short, this book has exceptional photos and displays wonderful furniture and design of natural materials. It's amazing to see how these materials can be formed into such beautiful and practical pieces of furniture. It's functional art!

Wouldn't recommend,
By FloridaSunshine "FloridaSunshine" (Tampa, FL) - See all my reviews
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Tropical interiors (Hardcover)
This book didn't give me any unique ideas for decorating my Florida home. I expected to find some unusual interiors that played on the beach, sand, tropics theme but was disappointed with both the photos and the text. It seemed more focused towards the Asian and oriental themes than towards what I was expecting as "tropical". I wouldn't recommend it to anyone seeking tropical ideas or inspiration for their home decor.
