Cover too traditional...the ideas are really up-to-date: I used ideas from 2 of the featured rooms. This book puts a fun twist on some standard construction materials. The cover is deceptively tradional...there were plenty of cool modern/industrial ideas. The instructions were awesome. Lots of great tips to prevent time-consuming and costly errors. There is a desk made out of tool chests that is perfect for a pre/teen boy's room. All the ideas are versatile and easily copied 'as is' or used as a springboard for your own version. I have seen many deco books and have never felt compelled to write a review until now.
Solid help for those who need inspiration and guidance.: I always appreciate a book that clearly and simply tells you how to achieve what the picture shows. This books does that and does it well. I particularly liked the Denim Days and Outer Limits rooms-fabulously creative and fun!
A bedroom for my science kid: Wow! I loved the bedroom for a kid who likes science and technology - the metal wall and starry universe theme for the ceiling are a great touch! Lots of ideas for a great room!
Very specific styles: I found one idea in this book I would use and it is cute - but the rest of the book doesn't help me at all - glad I checked it out from the Library first.
