The Interior Design Reference & Specification Book: Everything Interior Designers Need to Know Every Day

A wonderful book! I bought it as we were planning on a complete refurbishment of the parents' summerhouse. In a concise, practical way, all the major aspects of interior design are listed and shortly explained. Now I am on the same page with our architect :)

a must have for interior designers! brilliantly presented information. intuitive design. great reference for any aspect of an interior design project.

Great book covering all the basics of interior design. A bit too biased towards domestic work and also United States formats, standards and dimensions. Not so much on acoustics, MEP, graphics and signage. Good sections on programming, drawing coordination, colour theory. You will likely need more research on the internet on specialist topics like furniture but a good stepping off point nonetheless.

This truly is an excellent reference book for interior design!

Brilliant read, so much information and all in great detail

Its OK.

extremely useful and helpful. estimated delivery date was met! very satisfied!

Excelente and in time

Needed it for private English teaching and helped me getting a really good insight into interior design regarding the topic as well as the langauage.

The book is interesting but I received a book in bad condition, with glue on it and damaged in the corners

Excelente libro de referencia para diseñadores de interiores y arquitectos desde la planeación de un proyecto hasta los detalles técnicos.

This interior design book, along with their architecture book, gave me SO MANY ideas, concepts, pitfalls, things to think about, that I couldn't put it down. I thought I knew a lot behind the engineering for designing my next house, this book showed me how wrong I was. This is not written like a story book, nor is it just a technical-numbers reference... it gives a brief (technical) overview of each concept before presenting the numbers behind each reference. If you're used to reading stories or are looking for decorating ideas, look elsewhere. But, if you've also got an engineer's brain, you will love how this reads. I especially liked the section on the engineering behind colors and light, with how it relates to design. I read this cover-to-cover, and will probably do it again more than once during my home design process.

Fast shipping, girlfriend told that book useful!
