Editorial Reviews

Library Journal
Evelegh (House Beautiful Window Workshop) again provides practical advice for the novice who wants to create an inviting decor. Here she tackles all elements of interior decorating, begining with the basics of design and then discussing the use of pattern, color, texture, and scale and giving examples of popular styles to illustrate her points. She then proceeds with a discussion of various elements, such as floors, window treatments, and decorative accessories, presenting various applications and how each will create a particular look. The book takes the reader room-by-room to show how various looks can be achieved. Especially helpful are the color photographs that depict styles from sleek to modern to cozy that will appeal to a wide variety of decorating tastes. Recommended for public library collections.
