Rating: Summary: Great book Review: I really liked this book. It has a lot of very nice designs, that I never thought about. I like the concept of how the book is designed - straight and simple.
Rating: Summary: not worth it Review: This book is about the size of a child's Golden Book; it's an unfortunate size to choose for a design book, but I probably wouldn't have minded so much if the designs were any good. The "where to buy" section at the back lists American sources, yet the pictures don't seem to be of American bathrooms (there's an odd aesthetic in them that's hard to pin down, except that these just don't look like the styles and materials that you see at Expo, on HGTV or in your general design mag). If you love the idea of putting wooden floors, toilets wedged into spaces exactly their own width, & toilet tanks concealed in wooden cabinets into your bathroom, this is the book for you. If you're planning a remodel where you're just replacing everything & you want color scheme or materials ideas, probably anything on the shelf at Home Depot would be better.
