Superb living space planning book

Ms. Stoddard has authored a deeply analytical book on approaching living space decoration and organization within it to establish one's own space as reflective of that person and as a joyful, peaceful, safe haven for mind and body. She advocates and moves from the premise that everyone needs a special, and very private, place for oneself, free from invasion by others, whether they be family members or anyone else. She suggests the tools and techniques for finding surroundings that reflect, nurture and motivate one's ideas and ways of being. It has the additional benefit of being a good book for those searching for organizational systems and order. Even if it is out of print, I suggest you search for it. I give it five thumbs up.
