Summary: An intelligent, witty, gorgeous book of interior design
Review: This is an intelligent, witty, gorgeous book of interior design. It's based on the theory that there are roughly 4 personality types (the reader takes an immensely satisfying quiz to determine his/her type(s)), and it offers decorating ideas--illustrated by sumptuous photos--for all 4 types, in all major rooms of the house or apartment. No dorky kountry kitsch, no impossibly impractical avant-garde posturing. Just beautiful, practical, hip decorating ideas from a variety of personality perspectives. I love this book.

Summary: Not for people who want to create a "home sweet home"
Review: This is not a book for comfort-lovers, I discovered. It's OK if what you want is to live in rooms that are the design equivalent of cacti, because the rooms and furnishings are cold and definitely "prickly." I liked the idea of the quiz at the beginning of the book, but it was superficial and not helpful to us in the end.

Summary: The most engaging and insightful home decorating book
Review: This is the first home decorating book that held my attention for an entire evening! Ms. George's personality quiz was fun to take and revealed so much about my personal taste in decorating. At last I understand why I like what I like...and why it's so different from most of my friends and family. Anyone moving into a new home should read this book with their mate or significant other before making purchases. By taking the quiz, they can help understand the similarities and differences of their choices. I believe by understanding each other's personality type it will help them resolve purchasing conflicts and come to a meeting of the minds in what they buy. This book is valuable, insightful and enjoyable....quite an evening's entertainment. It's also a "must-have" gift for brides and grooms and people moving into new homes!

Summary: This book allows your artistic style to transform your home.
Review: Unlike most books covering interior design, this is not a "one-size-fits-all" approach to home decorating. Using an entertaining quiz to help uncover your artistic leanings, this book explores how to weave your preferences into the home of your dreams and personality style. I found it to be a real confidence builder! The lovely illustrations and humorous descriptions validate your innate wisdom about design and offer creative suggestions to let the real you "show through" at home. I recommend this book to help other readers overcome their fears of decorating and entertaining.

Summary: Learn about yourself!
Review: What a great idea! I have learned a lot. Instead of just looking at photos to see if I like them, I now have a strong sense of what my "decorating personality style" is. Since decorating has been a bit intimidating for me, this book gave me a new sense of confidence about what to do in my home. I actually can see why I really like some things and don't like others. The book is fun, creative, well written and has great photos. Thanks for introducing the design personality concept! I highly recommend this book!

Summary: A Great Place to Start
Review: When I bought this book, I thought I would use it just for browsing through - you know, drinking in the pages of beautiful photography and culivating some ideas as I went. But The Domain Book proved to be much more than that. I found myself reading and enjoying every word and coming away with a real feel for my personal decorating style. I highly recommend this book; its well-turned phrases and sutbtle witticisms are pure pleasure to read!

Summary: Hey look! Another decorating book!
Review: Without this book, I would have never discovered that I really don't give a toss what personality I should be. Color me "self knowing without the need for this 80's-rehash-I'm-an-earth-tone whooey." I demand the cash equivalent of the 43 minutes it took me to read this drivel. P.U.
