Customer Reviews

Great book

Bought this book as a holiday gift for a friend who is interior designer. It was a big hit, he loved it!

Entertaining and informative!

A great book full of lush pictures and entertaining dialogue. The narration is cheerful, the photos are beautiful! A wonderful book for yourself or as a gift!

Refreshing candor

This is such an entertaining read as well as a look at a wide variety of decorating styles. I first became interested in this decorator (the only one I know by name) in Architectural Digest. These wonderful projects kept coming up in different months and so I started reading the articles that went with the pictures in the projects and discovered Bill Stubbs! He has a fresh eye for every client. He really looks and really listens. How unusual in today's self absorbed world.
