Customer Reviews

One of my favorite Garden Plan & Idea Books

I have loved using this book since it's inception in 1995. The plans are not expensive at all, since I work with architects and designers, which can really drive up the cost. I am ordering a plan for a beautiful Art Studio / guesthouse, complete with kitchen and bath, for $75.00. The set of plans cost $50.00 almost 15 years ago, so they haven't gone up much. This book is published by Home Planners, Inc. which has been in business for many years and [...] I'm sorry for the people who ordered the book somehow thinking it would include the full set of plans. What you will get is a very nice drawing and a floor plan to describe what the project is. There are 42 designs for everything under the sun, and my clients love picking out projects to build as much as I do. Give the book a chance and you are sure to find something you too will enjoy.

Fanciful Ideas

I'm on the lookout for books that have diagrams of very small structures for the yard that might be used as guesthouses. Many books that I have looked at have buildings that are too big, or are aimed at the do-it-yourself crowd -- more plans, fewer different ideas. This book has 12 drawings of small buildings that might be used as designed or slightly modified to make an overnight house for guests. Some of the gazebos presented are unusual as well.I would like to be able to find 3 or 4 more books with this focus.
