Summary: Buy when you are in school!
Comment: I purchased this reference guide as I was preparing for my NCIDQ exam to become a licenensed designer. While there was pertinant information I wished that someone had reccomended that I purchase it as I entered into design school.
There are many useful on Human anthropometrics, the use of space and environmental systems. However, there isn't much information on the architectural aspects of interior design (nominal lumber sizes/ building products & materials etc.)
Francis Ching (or his editor) is very good at laying out his books so that design professionals can easily read through, or can use them to reference when looking for specific information.
A great addition the the library of Interior Designers and students.
The Ultimate Decorating Organizer - Now you can always have your home at your fingertips! Finding & keeping measurements, colors, & samples is quick and easy.
