Abrams Books Love Affairs with Houses

Loved all the room shots. Very enjoyable to read. Very fast delivery.

Luckily, as I was about to gift wrap this item today, I checked and at Page 24 there is a whole section turned upside down and bound, running from page 36 back through to page 25 (all upside down) and then continuing from page 37 the right way up. I would like this item replaced with a copy of the book with all the pages in the right order and the right way up, please!!

Ich mag sie eigentlich und habe auch andere Bücher, aber das, was einige der internationalen Kritiken sagten, stimmt leider. es ist zu unpersönlich und für mich zu sehr: das sieht jetzt alles ganz europäisch aus! Aber das kriegen die Amerikaner in der Regel nie wirklich hin, da es eben nicht nur um große Vorhänge und einige Antiquitäten geht. bei den anderen Büchern hatte ich mehr das Gefühl das ihr Stil gezeigt wird. Es gibt ja mittlerweile so viele Design Bücher über jedes Thema, aber dieses kann man sich sparen, außer man mag diesen pseudo Europa Stil. Ansonsten gibt es bessere Bücher wenn es um einen klassischen Stil geht. Schade, da sie einer der Inneneinrichter ist, die wirklich sympatisch wirkt und unkompliziert und ihre anderen Bücher sind ja auch gut

Before redecorating it’s a good idea to research styles of decor.This book has classic styles to consider.Added plus if there is a paint color you like you can take the book into a paint store and have them natch the photo.

I have a small library of design books and thought it was time to finally purchase one by Bunny Williams. There are already several reviews so I'll keep mine short There are 15 projects captured in the book. Each chapter has a page of text, large photos, and captions to describe each of the photos.I thought the homes were lovely, but I felt the book lacked elements to make them look unique. By the end of the book I felt the homes were all very similar, with each blending into the other. The last chapter, the designer's studio, while lovely, also felt a bit snobbish. Not too many people can afford to purchase their neighbors house and remake it as a studio and exercise room. All in all, I enjoyed the book but thought it lacked inspiration.
