Contemporary World Interiors Hardcover – Illustrated, June 26, 2007

This is the Mother of all coffee table books. This is a wonderful comprehensive compilation of design interiors of residences and all kinds of buildings, including art museums. Each page is chock full of amazing photos. This is a great book to look at and get ideas for interior design and to plan your next travel destination. I wondered how one woman could write such a comprehensive book. It is truly amazing and I have thoroughly enjoyed reading it.

This is a pretty good book. Written with a general audience in mind and published in a large format with big pictures. I did not expect anything much more than a great set of pictures. But surprise surprise, the text could easily hold up on its own. I have not had time to read the entire text yet but it is obvious from my browsing that the author knows her stuff and communicates it in an illuminating and disarming way. If you know nothing about contemporary interior design and want to, this would be great introduction. If, like me, you have taught design students for many years the book is still engaging, up to date, and very enjoyable.

This book has many different photos with designs from around the world. First of its kind that has such a variety in designs.It is put together in an organized way and easy to read.I really enjoyed reading it and looking thru thousands of very tastefully chosen photos.I will recommend this book to anyone , not only designers.
