A richly illustrated interior-design reference for decorators, homeowners, design students, DIY enthusiasts, and collectors of vintage decorating books. The Encyclopedia of Interior Design & Decoration by Nonie Niesewand and Mike Lawrence combines creative inspiration with practical instruction for planning, decorating, renovating, and improving nearly every area of the home.
The book explores color schemes, lighting, furniture placement, decorative finishes, painting, wallpapering, tiling, flooring, paneling, repairs, and other essential elements of successful interior design. Step-by-step guidance is accompanied by numerous color photographs, diagrams, and examples of professionally designed rooms, making this a useful resource for both complete projects and individual decorating ideas. Its distinctly late-1980s rooms, colors, furnishings, and styling also give it considerable appeal as a visual reference for vintage design and period décor.
Published by Wellfleet Press in 1988, this substantial hardcover retains its original dust jacket and originally sold for $45. The interior pages appear clean, bright, and well preserved, with no writing observed. The hardcover boards remain attractive. The dust jacket shows visible shelf wear, rubbing, light soiling, edge wear, creasing, and small tears, particularly around the corners and spine ends. Please review all photographs for the complete condition.
