Making the most of bedrooms

the long version

Bedrooms are private sanctuaries in the morning and evening, and often serve as work or play spaces during the day. Here, full-color photographs and checklists offer inspiration and practical information on beds and linens, wall and floor treatments, and closets and other storage, and help the reader to reconcile the day and night functions of the room. Functional guest rooms are addressed, and an entire chapter is devoted to children's rooms, with colorful, safe ideas. For beds, sleep-over accommodations, and toy storage, as well as tips on adapting children's rooms as the children grow older. Whether the bedroom is in a tiny city studio, a country cottage, or a larger suburban home, Making the Most of Bedrooms is a source of achievable, affordable, and innovative ideas for making bedrooms look their best and suit the unique needs and tastes of their inhabitants.
