4.0 out of 5 stars God is in the details with this one folks!, May 20, 2000

By	Paul (toronto,canada) - See all my reviews

The Graphic Guide to Interior Details: For Builders and Deigners gives a comprehensive analysis and break down, not only for professionals in the industry, but for the first time home buyer, or for people who are just plain interested in built structures.There are endless details and drawings that are accompanied by current and up to date information that not only complies with modern day building codes and standards,but also has innovative and progressive techniques for the future. I'm a student that has gotten great use and resource out of this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Accurate and Detailed, January 19, 2005

By	John Matlock "Gunny" (Winnemucca, NV) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Graphic Guide to Interior Details: For Builders and Designers (Paperback)

Here you will find up-to-date information about virtually every material involved in interior construction - common and uncommon, residential and commercial - so you can compare key factors and make the best decisions for all of your projects.

Illustrated with hundreds of clear drawings that can be easily incorporated into architectural plans and show how these materials connect to the structure of a building and to each other. Here is information on everything from drywall to resilient flooring, from raised panelling and colored concrete to banisters, handraios, door trim and cabinet hardware.

Written by a practicing architect with his own firm, the drawings and descriptions have been reviewed for accuracy by independent architects and builders from all over the country. The result is an unrivalled guide to finishing the inside of a house.

3.0 out of 5 stars Not as good as Guide to Frame Construction, January 10, 2006

By	R. Philip "advanced diy'er" (austin, tx.) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This review is from: Graphic Guide to Interior Details: For Builders and Designers (Paperback)

I purchased this because I was very impressed with the "Graphic Guide to Frame Construction" book. I was much less impressed
by this book - lighter on the details and less updated.
