This is a great book for the do-it-yourselfer – very informative and the cutout templates for all the rooms in the house are very helpful and useful to see how the arrangement will work. I am a design student and love all books pertaining to design. I highly recommend this!

This is a very complete space planner, templates for all sizes and shapes of furniture, and quite a bit of advice on space planning. However, the scale used was just too small for comfortable use. I ended up using my own larger scale graph paper and made my own larger templates, which is what I’ve done for years. None of the space planners available use a large enough scale in my opinion. But this is a very complete book and guide — providing you have 20-20 vision.

I was hoping for something that could be used for our designers and maybe I was looking for to much. I own a Home Decor store along wiht my wife and have tried to use different project planning guides/books. This space planner though well laid out and offering good prompting questions for the non-professional, had little new info. If you are non-computer literate and want to play with a few ideas it may be just fine but rather laborsome to use on a regular basis.

When we purchased our first home we had a million things to purchase and plan out when it came to rooms. This workbook has nice large grid pages as well ad”budget sheets” to help you figure out how much you are spending on paint/accessories.
This book went everywhere with me from getting carpet estimates to picking up gallons of paint.
The book even has a few pages of pockets to hold inspiration pictures as well as plastic furniture pop outs in the back to use when planning.
In terms of all the work books of this type I looked at I was most happy with this simply designed medium sized one.
