This book takes the mystery out of decorating, and is a useful companion for anyone who wants to create a living space that is uniquely theirs, without having to pay a lot of money. The author shows how the main ingredient of good home design is imagination, and presents solutions for every room. There are also chapters on features such as floor coverings, lighting, windows, halls and entrances. Caroline Atkins is Associate Editor of House Beautiful, and has contributed to magazines such as Homes and Gardens and Good Housekeeping.
