"An essential text for all students of design . . . [and] inspiration and intel for those simply interested in the art and practice." --Alexa Hampton, from the foreword From the nation's top college for interior design comes a definitive design school in a book and a fabulous reference for decorating the home. In the past decade, New York School of Interior Design, which was founded in 1916, has drawn a large crossover audience of passionate decorating enthusiasts and hobbyists--many of them private homeowners who know that thinking like a professional is the surest way to achieve a magnificent home. This lavishly illustrated and highly detailed interior design bible provides a comprehensive education on home design and decor, from color theory principles to space-specific considerations (choosing furniture for a living room) and collaborating with architects and other professionals for the best results. Built on the Home Study Course that is the foundation of the school's curriculum, this book offers an unparalleled mastery of the key elements of enduring design, rendering it the only book you'll ever need. Review: A Helpful Reference Book or a Great Coffee Table Book - This book is a good reference for any interior design enthusiast. It's comprehensive and covers all aspects of design principles in an informative and engaging way. The book is full of great visuals - photos, illustrations, charts, tables, etc. There's no shortage of reference images or pictures for inspiration. I have it stacked on my bookshelf right now but routinely reach for it to spot check specific space planning best-practice measurements. It covers everything from space planning to color theory and has a section on outdoor living. Whether you use this book as a coffee table book or a true guide, it's nice one to have on hand. Review: Thoroughly Educational and Absolutely Beautiful ❤️ - I have always loved interior design, even as a child. I have admired great designers and purchased many of their books. This is singularly the most organized, most incisive, most educational, most amazing and most beautiful book on interior design. I have never recommended a book or anything at all so strongly. Ellen Fisher with Jen Renzi created a resource that deserves a special place in the world of interior design. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼❤️ P.S. I am buying everyone I love a copy.

the MOST BEAUTIFUL book i have ever owned!
Wow!! I'm not sure why I am surprised that a book about design is designed so beautifully. The sleeve is so crisp and thick. The pages of the book are really high quality as well. I bought this book to review design principles--it has a good mix of information and images. My partner found another purpose for it when it's not being read and has proclaimed himself an interior designer. Overall, could not be happier with this purchase.

Informative Textbook Read!
As a recent college graduate, I have been looking for new ideas and paths to take my career in. I love teaching myself new topics, and my interest at the time is interior design. This book gives countless visual examples of interiors, as well as gives you the nitty gritty details of how to appropriately position furniture and decor, and how to match the furniture to your space based on size, texture and color.

Nunca llegó
No llegó el libro porque se perdió el envío; aunque me dieron un reembolso, fue una muy mala experiencia, una decepción.
