INTIMUS: Interior Design Theory Reader

Not only this item but also other items which ı bought, help me a lot. I am going to write my thesis next year and these resourcesare really good for me about my topic.

Worth its weight in gold! This is my favourite book on interior design theory and I can't recommend it highly enough. Great for architects and interior designers but also a must for anyone with an interest in cultivating both a deep and an expansive understanding of interior. I consult this interior design "bible" as my first point of reference whenever I approach a new project, but it also directs me to many other great books, so be prepared to be thoroughly engaged!

I picked up this book with excitement. The layout and the concept is an interesting idea. But I started to get worried after the first 2 Chapters.Chapter 1 is written by someone who does not know how to explain a simple idea without getting tangled up in the most dense "I'm an academic so I better make it sound intelligent", style of writing. Yeah I can understand what the Chapters about, but who needs to read pages written in such a difficult, concentrated sytle. I was laughing to myself at the convoluted sentences I was being asked to read in the name of enjoyment. Sad! Very sad that this author just cant connect and communicate a not very difficult idea......Chapter 2 was a translation from French into English. I got so bored reading sentences of meaningless waffle that I gave up. I pick up books to read for enjoyment not pain!Chapeter 3 was normal. It was written by an actual Interior Designer so yeah it uses real English that can be understood easily. Very interesting it was too.I have reached Chapter 10 and it has got better, ie: less written by idiots that cant make a coherent sentance, but I remain mentally scared and worry that the next chapter will bore me into submission. It better get better!!!Simon

useful book for interior designer and architect

Just as expected. Thank you!
