The best decorating book out there!
5 out of 5 stars
The best decorating book out there!
A guide to decorating room by room. Not only is it fillled with beautiful photography, but this book by Pheobe Howard also gives site specific details like tile size, how to wisely spend your budget and square footage. I actually read the entire book, captions and all. The pallet of blue and white is most common but also shown are layered neutrals and vibrant pinks and greens. It is a book you will reference for years as you build your interiors.

    I just love the rooms in this book. I have other Mrs Howard books and have always admired the work. Design is a strange world. You can create a room that you feel like you can just walk into and feel like you would be totally comfortable in. These are the rooms in this book.

    3.0 out of 5 stars Written and Photographed Well, But Lackluster Decor
    Reviewed in the United States on February 17, 2019
    Verified Purchase
    This book did not inspire me, but perhaps it is just a difference in taste. I prefer a more fresh, casual style with natural materials, texture and visual interest. "Room by Room" is filled with formal, and in my opinion, over-designed rooms. I realize books such as this are meant to be inspirational, but I had trouble moving past what I consider unattractive and, in some cases, boring decor. If you love mono- and di-chromatic color schemes, this book may appeal to you (note the cover photo - it is a preview of the interior). To give credit where credit is due, Mrs. Howard has achieved a well-written and organized book that contains useful information, no matter your taste.
