The Ultimate House Book by Conran et al.

This book is an excellent reference for decorating a private home. It describes flexible living quarters, work at home and family quarters. There is a basic budget model, as well as provision for more elaborate and expensive customizations. The work contains an extensive materials directory which is useful for deciding upon the material components and pricing structure. Both form and function are described in detail. There are contrasting arguments for employing vulcanized rubber, plastics and marble. The book is excellent if it is utilized wisely in connection with planned home designs.
