DESCRIPTION:
Beginning with a detailed and engaging reader questionnaire, this book helps do-it-yourself home decorators identify the home decor style that best suits them. In addition, spreads feature ideas for every room in the house, from the living room and kitchen to the bedroom and bathroom.. It provides readers with a comprehensive style directory profiling 12 diverse home interior styles in large, glowing color photographs. Profiles offer in-depth advice for re-creating each style, including guidelines for choosing color schemes, paint effects, fabrics, decorative accents, furniture and much more. From floor to ceiling and everything in between, this unique guide covers all the details. Choosing from a range of home decor ideas, readers can explore the cozy interiors of Country and Colonial; the bold, bright decor of Asia, Mexico and the Mediterranean; and the simple, refined look of Minimalist, Scandinavian and Japanese-inspired interiors. It then leads them through a step-by-step decorating process for achieving that look in their own home
Don't bother with this one If you are looking to do extensive renovations in a particular style, then this is for you. This book is useless for the average home owner. It is also confusing for the US audience unless you are familiar with UK terms like emulsion paint (they mean latex). Also there are few photos of each style and the ones they give are poor examples of each style.
