5.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful book!
This book is stunning inside and out! Vibrant pictures throughout! This book would be perfect to display on an open book rack! Mine was slightly damaged in shipping but I kept it.

4.0 out of 5 stars Very interesting
A beautifully curated collection that inspires timeless style and elegance. The detailed craftsmanship and rich textures make this a standout resource for design lovers.
5.0 out of 5 stars FABULOUS, if you're actually looking for a book
This book is awesome! The photographs are plentiful and gorgeous and there's just enough text that makes me want to read it cover to cover. I just received it and am so surprised at how much good info is in here.There's a mix of photographs of interiors with text written about who you need to know, as in "recognizing the major players" in wallpaper, upholstered furniture, ceramics, etc. There's also info about how things are made, so when you look at a fine piece of furniture you know how it's actually created. Very useful information.I was looking for a book that shows how to mix fine antiques and artifacts with some modern pieces. This definitely shows many many examples of this and way more.There are reviews with comments about the cover and how it actually *looks* on your coffee table or bookshelf. It's very attractive, but I can assure you by morning mine will be filled with sticky notes and possibly some highlighting. Use it however you want.
5.0 out of 5 stars The book is 5 stars, Amazon's handling of the book is not
The book is wonderful and informative - 5 stars from me. But this is the first and last coffee table book I buy from Bolo. It arrived with some damage (crinkled spine with slight tear, warping), a complaint seen in a number of these reviews.
Lovely but expected a bit more
Lovely book overall, however the quality of the photographs used is inconsistent. Some are high-resolution at full-page, others are slightly low-resolution at this scale. This was a let down for me and I am contemplating returning the book. On one hand the book seems comprehensive, on the other hand it seems to depict a rather biased design style.
Stunning book for the collector
I saw this stunning book in Chapters/Indigo for $75. This was $61. It arrived in less than 24 hours. I bought it as a decor piece. I had to hide the little cable box in a decorative jewelry box and elevated it with a couple of books. It’s perfect with my gold and white bedroom decor. Book is pristine. Well packed in the box. The cover is textured, more of an orangey gold and creams. Lots of different styles and famous designers. A must have.
Perfeito
O livro é lindo demais!!!! Chegou em perfeito estado!
This is a gem of a book!
This book is a gem! It is a coffee table book that delivers on all fronts – visuals, text, paper, cover, binding … however it is much more than a coffee table book because of the well conceived project that led to its development: the book provides a very well researched and comprehensive coverage of both the “hardware and software” that make a house a home, including walls, floors, furniture, textiles and accessories, across several functions and materials. The text is highly informative, contains a lot of background information about all of these “finer things”, including how they are made and how their production and utilization have evolved over time. A wealth of knowledge that makes the reading informative as well as useful. The photography is stunning and makes it go back to it, to read the text and/or soak in the beauty of all the “finer things” illustrated. It is really a high quality book, reflective of a high quality endeavour by the author. A great resource for anyone who is interested in interior design and/or in appreciating timeless beauty and/or virtually anyone who is interested in learning about the design, technology and craftmanship of the things that make houses homes. And a stunning, classic piece that elevates any coffee table décor. I am enjoying this book on so many levels and highly recommend it.
A beautiful book I’ve gifted to many friends.
I like the layout of this book which gives helpful guidance on different interior design aspects. The most beautiful houses clearly shown, lovely illustrations just a pleasure to read.
