Good profile of practical Neoclassical decorating

I have come to be a lover of Neoclassical art and architecture and asked for this book as an X-mas gift for decorating ideas. It has excellent photos with tips ranging from the formal to the casual, the decadent to the simplistic. It shows exterior housing designs as well as interior furnishings (bathrooms, dining areas, couches, kitchens, etc). If you are looking for a book strictly on the history of Neoclassicism, go elsewhere. But, if you are looking for a compilation of decorating ideas with great photos, this is what you need.
