Increasingly used for working, listening to music, watching TV, and consuming intimate meals, the bedroom has become as much a design challenge as larger, more public rooms. Highton has selected the most interesting and varied bedroom designs from North American and international editions of House & Garden to show just how wonderful this room can be. 280 color illustrations. Dozens of bedrooms previously shown in the old House & Garden magazine are presented here. Styles from Gothic to Modern are lavishly photographed and feature four-poster beds, large sitting-room bedrooms, and cozy corners that just fit a bed. The bathrooms shown here are those "en-suite," just off the bedroom, and present a continuity of design that enhances both rooms. Those interested in bedroom decoration will find convenient access to ideas without having to sift through numerous books and magazines. Copyright 1996 Reed Business Information, Inc. This sequel to other 'House and Garden' titles focuses on the bedroom's interior design, profiling selected and varied bedrooms published throughout the years in various editions of 'House and Garden'. Numerous eye-catching shots cover fine details in a presentation interior designers will find important. -- Midwest Book Review Used Book in Good Condition
