Reviews
It's hard to decide if the elegant color photographs from House Beautiful or the snippets of wisdom from a selection of interior designers are more instructional. The answer? Let your senses decide as you leaf through this showcase collection, with secrets clearly numbered and visuals just as patently coordinated. However, these tricks of the trade are definitely meant for the hoi-er polloi, since most readers can't afford to subscribe to, for instance, this sample dictate: "If you're on a tight budget, splurge on a superbly built sofa--everything else can come from Pottery Barn." On the other hand, it doesn't hurt to dream, does it? Barbara Jacobs
