Customer Reviews:Average Customer Rating: Time-Saver Standards for Interior Design and Space Planning, 2nd Edition This book is a must for all in Interior Design.[[ASIN:0071346163 Time-Saver Standards for Interior Design and Space Planning, 2nd Edition] dissatisified - never received I have never received this book!! Not worth buying! I have had this book for the passed 7 years and have glanced inside maybe 4 times! The best book to buy as a reference is the Interior Graphic Standards! Great resource tool I have been a practicing ID for the last 15 years and can't believe I had not purchased this manual previously. This is a great tool, very informative. Great time-saver!! Well worth every penny. Can't Not Have This This is a required book for anyone in Interior Design for a good reason: it has about everything, including the (many kinds) of kitchen sink. What I really can't stand about using it is the seemingly arbitrary indexing, scattered locations for information and nearly impossible to decipher graphics on some pages. I do not agree that it has much useful information on furniture styles: you'd be better off to shell out for Aronson's "Encyclopedia of Furniture" or Miller's "Furniture" and get right to what you need. The standard dimensions are useful, though, especially for space planning purposes. Don't be surprised if there is information missing in some cases, or it is outright incorrect. Be sure to cross-reference and here's another tip: make a cheat sheet for yourself for the pages you use most, tape it to the inside cover and go from there. The Index is a goose-chase. Why three stars? Because I think they can do better. It is time for a rehaul of the Silver Monster. | | |||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||||
