There is nothing particularly fascinating about this book due to the dryness of the writing. As a "How To Design a Bathroom" book, this one hits all the major points, but it does not inspire a design with the photographs picked. There were not enough bathrooms shown due to the extensive repetition of the same bathrooms throughout the book.
I would definately not recommend this book to other designers due to the lack of new information or ideas. Instead, buy Bathing Spaces by Ali Hanan because of the variety and careful selection of pictures and text.

Many good kitchen ideas. I was looking for paint color ideas, not remodeling ideas at this time.

Today's bathroom is more than a functional, utilitarian space-it is also a sanctuary and private retreat. The bathroom receives more remodeling dollars than any other room in the house (except the kitchen). Today's bathroom is a center for both physical and mental relaxation, and IdeaWise: Bathrooms will show you how to get the most personal satisfaction from this all-important room. There are also good economic reasons for remodeling or adding a bathroom-a major bathroom project returns virtually its entire investment by adding value to your home.

Kitchens & Baths for Today & Tomorrow: Ideas for Fabulous New Kitchens and Baths Review

I am a Kitchen & Bath Designer and own my own Showroom. I have put together one of the best reference libraries, for my clients. I preordered this book and received it today. I generally give them a look thru and see if any pictures jump out. I must say that I found myself reading this book. It has great information for anyone wanting to redo their kitchen or bath. It educates in very clear language but not so elemetary to bore the design professional. It is peppered with little nuggets of wisdom from designers and the author .....things that even us "old" designers can learn from. It covers everything from floor to ceiling and everything in between. They have included sections on Universal design, which we are all always looking for new ideas to incorporate accessibility in an attractive manner. I would highly recommend this book to both the homeowner or designer.

The heart & soul of kitchens & baths
This inspirational book allows readers to dream about their ideal bathroom and kitchen, but it doesn't stop there: Kitchens & Baths for Today & Tomorrow also helps readers transform their dreams into reality. From simply practical to fabulously luxurious, this book is written specifically for do-it-yourselfers. Photographs of beautiful rooms are right alongside insider tips, detailed instructions on how to plan and design kitchens and bathrooms, as well as money-saving ideas that can be adapted to personal plans, clever do-it-yourself projects for each topic, hints and tips from professional designers, a glossary of terms, and a valuable resource guide for DIYers.
The book gives bathrooms and kitchens equal attention in their own sections. Both sections open with an introductory planning and design chapter specific to the room, and then move into detailed chapters discussing key elements of the room, including: walls, floors, ceilings, storage and display, lighting, fixtures and fittings, and ventilation. The kitchen sections also offers ideas to aid in food preparation and cleanup, and dining and hospitality. The photos, descriptions, facts, and details from Kitchens & Baths for Today & Tomorrow will help readers plan kitchen and bathroom projects wisely.
