This was a fantastic introduction to interior design vocabulary. It’s laid out in alphabetical order for easy reference. Each term is described in enough detail to provide understanding and yet it’s delightfully simple. There are tons of colorful pictures and helpful illustrations. If you’re interested in meeting with an interior designer and want to brush up on the lingo before hand so you speak the same language, this is the book you need.
Thank you for the eARC!

This was a pleasure to pore over! Easy to navigate, concise, and visually pleasing, I wish had it available in my early days of design. This will be a treasure on my bookshelf. I highly recommend this book as resource for anyone interested in creating environments that are well thought out and go beyond mere decoration.
