Hectic schedules and the increasing pressures of modern life make a pleasing, practical, and comfortable home an absolute requirement. "Modern Essentials" takes a stylishly minimal approach to designing a living space that our demanding life requires.
Through four different approaches--Natural, New Classical, Soft Design, and Color & Contrast--this book provides inspiration and guidance on all facets of interior decorating. Striking photographs are complimented by professional suggestions on color, fabrics, floor coverings, and accessories for every room in the home. In addition, an entire section is devoted to the practicalities of renovating and remodeling your space to fit your life.

Selecting subtle colors and simple shapes, the author offers a refreshing definition of what modern means. Nothing contrived or jarring to the senses here--just an overview of some good furniture design and serene color palettes that seem to relax you as you look at them. Think how sweet they would be to come home to. -- Los Angeles Times, December 10, 1998
