Review by Library Journal Review
These books offer a wealth of color photographs with plenty of suggestions and ideas. Bathrooms provides ideas on redesigning existing baths as well as converting other spaces into bathrooms. Kitchens covers various design alternatives and decisions, for example, when to build a cooking island or create a banquette. Kids' Spaces focuses on children's bedrooms but includes ideas for accommodating children's needs in bathrooms and family rooms. Short lists interspersed throughout give planning and design tips. A basic planning book, such as Andrew Wormer's The Bathroom Idea Book (LJ 9/15/99) or Wendy A. Jordan's The Kidspace Idea Book (reviewed below), will still be useful, but the abundance of ideas here will help an amateur in designing these rooms. Recommended for public libraries.
