Thousands of Definitions for the Interior Designer!

From front jacket: "The 'Concise Encyclopedia of Interior Design, Second Edition,' is actually several interior design books in one convenient volume. The only encyclopedia of its kind, it is truly comprehensive, combining the aesthetic with the practical, new ideas with useful information. Containing more than 800 terms not covered in the first edition, the 2nd edition covers all important nomenclature of interior design and decoration you're ever likely to use. All entries are alphabetically arranged and thoroughly cross-referenced, making it as easy as possible to find whatever information you seek. Author and interior design expert A. Allen Dizik gives you the full benefit of his 48 years in the field. His encyclopedia does much more than just define terms. It also contains idea-packed monographs on all important topics and provides you with handy charts and formulas to help you solve all of your design problems. Numerous tables throughout make all information easy to understand and put to use. You'll find new information on antiques, architecture, color schemes, floor and wall coverings, furniture arrangement, lighting, design styles and periods, textiles, the psychology of color, modern art and artists, and even wine and wine racks!"
