The designs in the book are wonderful. They are clean line drawings that are fun and easy to color. In addition to the actual coloring pages, there are also some hints for interior design and some exercise pages for trying out some of those hints. Most of the designs are detailed and a few of them include intricate elements to color. The designs show a wide variety of rooms, a couple of outside views, as well as some furniture and other design collage style pages.
The book is printed on both sides of the perforated page and 15 of the designs spread across two pages. What is great is that the designs stop right at the perforations and pick up on the next page at the same spot. It makes it easy to color the whole design without having to struggle coloring into the binding area.
I have a couple of coloring books by this publisher and the paper, binding, and the printing of this book are quite different from those. While I like the prior books, this one steps up a level in publishing. It's a real pleasure to color in.
This is what I experienced while coloring in this book and testing the paper with my coloring medium.
61 pages of designs inspired by Young House Love (not including title, intro or exercise pages.)
Printed on both sides of the page
Paper is heavyweight, white, slightly smooth, and perforated
Sewn binding. You can remove pages in whole by cutting the binding; however, I would simply remove pages at the perforations.
Designs do not merge past the perforations.
Alcohol-based markers bleed through the page. They are the only wet medium that I tested which did bleed through the page.
Water-based markers, India ink pens and gel pens did not bleed through or leave shadows on the back of the page. Gel pens did require additional drying time.
Colored pencils work well with this paper. Even though the paper is slightly smooth, it grips color really well. I was able to layer and blend easily with both wax and oil based pencils.
In addition to the copy of this coloring book that I purchased on Amazon, the publisher sent me a sample advanced reader copy of this book.

The illustrations and designs are beautifully done, and quite realistic, and the paper is a bit heavier, and overall better quality than your average coloring book. I am very happy with my purchase

PROS
- Brilliant idea. I wish there were more coloring books for interior design.
- Wonderful introduction/tutorial allows you to practice with the color wheel and gain stronger understanding of complimentary colors. That’s my favorite aspect of the whole book, by far. The author was very savvy to include an instructional intro that empowers the customer to combine the right sets of colors (which ultimately leads to greater enjoyment).
- Paper is just durable enough for my Tombow brush-tip markers.
- Many of the drawings are excellent, like the library/study and living rooms.
CONS
- I strongly prefer contemporary design, so the mid-century modern, French country and farmhouse styles don’t offer me much inspiration for my own home. That said, the artist has good taste within those design styles.
- The whole experience could’ve been improved upon enormously by single-sided printing, but I understand that’s sometimes cost-prohibitive. In my photo you’ll see bleed-through on my favorite page (the study) due to my trying out an alcohol-based marker on the preceding page.
- I really could have lived without the “inspirational” sayings as decor. I honestly don’t get why these cloying, adolescent little messages are so popular right now. Why would an adult hang a sign in their living room that reads “Say yes to new adventures” or “All you need is love?” You make your house look like a teenage girl’s bedroom. It would be nice if the author/artist maintained the sophistication of the themes (adult coloring, interior design) by cutting out the silly stuff. There aren’t that many so I’m not holding it against her in my rating. I just wish they’d given us a few more rooms to color by editing out the sayings, oranges and butterflies.
- I don’t particularly care to color utility rooms or crafting spaces, but that’s just a personal preference.
To Joan Borawski: Please create another one! Despite my criticisms, I’d love to see more from you. Especially if you offered new/different tutorials and adhered to a slightly more refined or worldly aesthetic. I’ve had great fun with your book.
