The Perfect Home: Living in Style

Joseph Carroll. Ashley Group, $39.95 (128pp) ISBN 978-1-58862-085-9

Joe Carroll, publisher of Furniture/Today magazine, surveyed furniture designers, interior decorators, consultants and celebrities on what makes a ""perfect home."" The result is The Perfect Home: Living in Style, a sumptuously illustrated volume using more than 100 room settings to teach would-be designers how to use style, personality, color, light, nature and more to create a comfortable living space. For Dudley Moore, a perfect home should have ""unusual colors working together beautifully,"" while for painter and designer Bob Timberlake, it is ""a place that makes you feel good and inspired and happy.""
