ReviewsI could go on about why this should be the one interior design book you purchase this year - so let me just say that while I'm not often given to superlatives, I'd happily go on record in saying that this book lives up to its (slightly kitschy) alliterative title. It's fabulous, and a must-have for the well-informed interior design library.
