Nicely photographed. There wasn't much new information here, though, and I didn't walk away with the feeling that I'd learned anything. The pictures were pretty, though the decorating was uninspiring and stale to my eye. I want more punch, more incongruous juxtaposition, an odder collection of oddities and less of a Generic Stylish Interior Magazine look.

I really liked this book. It was one of those eye candy books that actually has ideas you haven't read a hundred times in magazines. Plus, it's well written.
Some of the interiors in this book aren't exactly my style, but it is always inspiring to see how people decorate with thrift!
