Changing Rooms

by Linda Barker, Shona Wood (Photographer)

In the television series on which this book is based, householders throughout the country have two days in which to transform a room in someone else's home, helped by professional designers and a DIY expert. The book guides readers through the problems and pitfalls encountered in 14 of them. There are descriptions of the rooms and the problems to be overcome, profiles of the designers involved, step-by-step methods and illustrations, special-techniques panels, and details of the equipment needed.

Lots of different room styles demonstrated, with fairly detailed instructions for recreating your own similar looks. Some rooms may seem dated or garish, but you can always take out the ideas you like and leave the rest. I really enjoyed the book.
