Description

Built-ins make a house more functional, livable, personal, and comfortable. A smaller kitchen with well-placed built-ins can be more efficient and inviting than a great big kitchen. A bathroom may become instantly more useful and less cramped with the addition of just one or two well-placed built-ins. And built-ins can claim potentially lost space, say the space under a sloped ceiling or the space under the stairs. They can also fill a space that's too big or smooth out irregular corners. But with all the information that's online, why buy this book It's not always easy to tell the wheat from the chaff, and then what do you do with it Built-ins Idea Book gathers lots of good ideas into one place, easy to look through, easy to carry along. It's an all-in-one resource for not only design ideas but on the pros and cons of the many built-in storage options. Richly illustrated with 260 photos, this completely revised bestseller will help readers update, choose, or create the perfect built-ins for their space. AUTHOR: Heather J.
