Contemporary Decorating: New Looks for Modern Living Book

This useful book explains how to create a refreshing alternative to outdated period styles and countrified nostalgia. Much more than stark white walls and minimalist decoration, it is about interiors rich with color, texture, and smooth, clean lines. Focusing on the home's principal elements — walls, floors, windows and doors, furniture, storage, and display — Contemporary Decorating offers 14 projects that sample such possibilities as glass brick walls, concrete floors, and metal doors. 200 color photographs are featured.
