      Starred review from September 15, 2016

      Yip, a featured designer HGTV Design Star and TLC's Trading Spaces, gives basic design principles as well as his own philosophy to enable novices to find their own aesthetic. He begins by describing the fundamentals of design with detailed measurements for placement of furniture, lighting fixtures, and the like with advice on window treatments, flooring, and finishes for every room of the house including outdoor spaces. Interspersed with these practicalities are creative ideas inspired by his work with clients and from his residences. He shows how to accommodate an active family and pets in stylish interiors with many color photographs of his homes in Atlanta, Manhattan, and seaside Florida. VERDICT Yip's fans and those seeking basic design advice will find much to recommend in this volume.
