Interior Design is an art-form unto itself and this book takes the key principles that designers already know and applies them in ways that ANYONE can understand. Get this book and you will be able to start making improvements that you, previously, never thought possible. What Would You Do With This Room? is the next best thing to hiring an interior designer.....for a lot less! Highly recommended.

This book is really easy to read and easy to implement.

Interior design used to seem really overwhelming to me. Now I feel like I can manage it better.

Great guide for the novice designer and I think this is a great reference even if you have more experience.

The cover is great in person. Can't wait to gift it to some of my friends.

this book is insightful and very helpful when it comes to making small and simple improvements to the home that can make a world of difference and gives advice for larger scale improvements as well.

Great book for practical ideas. I already knew some of the things I wanted to do in updating my home but this book gave me new concepts and a much better understanding in areas like lighting, color combinations, materials, etc. It's an easy read and the many pictures illustrate the concepts nicely.

This book is a charming, irreverent primer for the new, (and not so new), DIY home decorator. Lewison's 10 Commandments from "Design for how you live," to "Don't forget your eyeliner!" will pave the way for just about anyone to create a better home.

My favorite part is the section entitled "Dear Mark... What would you do with this room?" Real people have sent in photos of real problem rooms and ask for advice. From "Holy CLUTTER! What's going on in here?" to "VOILA! All of your dark upholstered furniture is now a lofty looking off white!" Lewison imparts his tricks of the trade in lively, encouraging prescriptions.

Because remember:"The bottom line is that you want to look good in your own home."

Excellent book but I bought the program first for $5.99 leaving me with $1.99 on my iTunes card. I was still able to buy the book. Here it's $31.00 for the book alone. What is the difference worth the cost difference?

I couldn't take the book seriously because the layout is poor. For a book on design they should have hired a designer to lay out the book.
