Synopsis:

With an emphasis on the simple style with which IKEA has made its name, this book aims to take the mystery out of decorating a home. It caters for small living spaces, as well as larger houses and each chapter focuses on a different room, including home "office" space and children's rooms. Throughout, tips and problem solving solutions are given for key design considerations such as lighting, storage and colour co-ordination. In addition, step-by-step illustrations teach specialist techniques for a wide range of projects.

From Library Journal: IKEA, the Swedish chain store that is the largest furniture retailer in the world, has revolutionized the sale of home furnishings with its inexpensive, contemporary-styled product that appeals to the cost-conscious, the young, and the trendy. Using IKEA merchandise to illustrate, Parikh describes the principals of home decorating. More than just an advertisement for the store, this book gives practical decorating advice as well as instructions for a few projects, such as distressing a cupboard and making "no-sew" drapes. Other books such as Terrence Conran's The Essential House Book (Crown, 1994) and Creative Interior Design (Ward Lock, 1994) provide more comprehensive information, but, this book is still recommended for large collections and for libraries near IKEA outlets.
