Thank you. Two Designer's Guides price at the Amazon was equal a price per one Designer's Guidebook in the Chapters' or Indigo. Price is incredible. At the same time they were not available in these store and 10 days waiting time in order to get them. It is real pleasure to have a business with you. In Amazon - fast shipping.

This book is wonderfully educational. Great pictures too. It takes you back to the beginning of furniture and walks you through the centuries providing you with the intial inspiration through Modern design.

They were probably written by the publisher or author of this book.What a waste of time and money. To my absolute shock, I dont understand who wrote these great reviews. I mean if the publisher is charging this price, then the least they could do is print it on good paper and have clearer pictures.I am extremely dissapointed and returning the book asap.If u enjoy throwing your money away on a small book with poorly printed pictures(aside from the info, which is fine)then this is the book to buy. Its poorly printed, very bad paper quality, no detailed shots of the furniture pieces, and not worth the price whatsoever. Based on the reviews of this book I decided to buy it. Being a designer myself, i ve got every possible book on interior design, and furniture styles that are out on the market. But if you are looking for details of furniture, including the background and history, and worth every penny, then i suggest you buy (Furniture: World Styles From Classical to Contemporary by Judith Miller ) Based on the price of this book, and good reveiws, I figured it would be a great addition to my collection of books and references.

So don't let me put you off. I was not impressed when I received this book, with the quality of the paper or the overall presentation. I thought some of the photography left much to be desired quality-wise. I just think that, with all the research and hard work involved, and considering the price, a better quality might have been forthcoming. However, it is quite a comprehensive book and I leaned on it considerably in my studies of furniture and design.

This book has brief history lessons on furniture from the begining of time. A must for every Interior Designer. It's a great reference when you need an answer about a design period- quick.
