Over 200 colour photographs are included, each one highlighting a simple solution to a classic decorating problem. Each section contains original, practical advice on how to get around many of the classic decorating problems - awkwardly shaped rooms, too little space and ugly fittings - with imagination and ingenuity substituting for a large decorating budget.

Review:
Noted designer and decorating-book author Mary Gilliatt has filled this useful book with wonderfully practical solutions for overcoming a multitude of common decorating problems. She tackles storage questions, adding architectural interest, lighting effects, flooring issues, wall techniques, fabric cover-ups, furniture disguises, kitchen makeovers, and bathroom fixes. Just browsing through her gallery of room-transforming concepts will provide terrific inspiration. More important, each page is packed with specific ideas for finding stylish and imaginative (yet affordable) ways to implement various decorating schemes and to give rooms your own personal touch.
