Reviews

This updated pictorial guide to interior design features fully revised sections and a new chapter on twentyfirst-century styles. There are 350 photographs, a bibliography, a glossary, and a chronology. Every era iscovered in a brief narrative, along with photos of prime examples (mostly individual furniture pieces) of the style. Sidebars offer information on movements, designers, and styles. Enough here has changed that libraries owning the first edition will want to consider this update. Essential for academic and special libraries serving art and design students; a nice purchase for larger libraries where there is an interest in interior design or history. Booklist
