Great Research Book. October 1, 2005 6 out of 6 found this review helpful
As an interior designer, I often start thinking about new spaces by doing research as to what other people have done in the past in similar situations...this is a great book to have in your library for that purpose. I've referenced it many times to show clients the sort of "mood" I'm looking to create before we sit down to hammer out the nuts and bolts of how that feeling translates into a different space with different furnishings and fabrics...this book won't teach you how to make curtains, but it is well worth the investment as exactly what it says it is..."a global design inspiration".
Absolutely gorgeous February 6, 2005 11 out of 13 found this review helpful
I buy many books of this type, and don't know when I've seen one as well put together and as beautiful as this. The juxtapositioning of images and text is exquisite, and the small table of similar items on other pages at the bottom of each page genius. More than just a bunch of pretty pictures - this book communicates a sense as to why people create such environments.

I have bought countless books on design, style and interiors. If vision sees more than just design, if space creates more than just line, if living feels more than just fine;then this is your book and inspiration for creating dreams.
