Product Description
From the Web site that attracts more than 3 million unique visitors a month, this groundbreaking book features 40 homes decorated by real people. Over 400 photos show details of all sorts of abodes from a tiny rental in Brooklyn to a condo in San Diego to a ranch-style in Miami. Each home profile includes floor plans, detailed resource lists, and "how I did it" explanations from the renters and owners who created fresh and entirely original interiors. Edited and written by Maxwell Gillingham-Ryan, Apartment Therapy founder and frequent makeover expert on HGTV, this bible of accessible design ideas is the ultimate home decor book for the DIY-savvy.

5 out of 5 stars Great Book - Like the Blog   September 23, 2008
Michelle M (Washington, DC)
1 out of 3 found this review helpful

This is a great book for small space organization and design. It follows the same approach as the Apartment Therapy blog but is edited to include the best in a variety of styles, budgets and sizes in coffee table format.

If you feel the need to be a cheapskate, you can find many of the house tours on the blog; but once you go to the blog, you will probably become a hopeless addict and have to buy this book any way for quick reference.

If you are considering this book, make sure to get AT's 8-step Home Cure too.



5 out of 5 stars therapy works!   August 15, 2008

i've been reading the ApartmentTherapy.com blogs for a few years now, and my mom sent me MGR's first book, "Apartment Therapy", which was a quick and awesome read...which i also made real by joining an AT Cure.

So, for my mom's birthday I bought us both copies of the new "Apartment Therapy Presents" picture book - which rules! It's full of great ideas and very pretty apartments, photos, tips, tricks, you name it.

I'm very impressed.



3 out of 5 stars Good book, but not great   July 26, 2008
Interior designer wannabe (Brookline, MA)
1 out of 5 found this review helpful

I'm a modern design junkie (magazines, books, blogs, web sites and oh yeah, actual decorating of our 975 square foot condo in a 100-year-old building). When I heard about this book I couldn't wait to get my hands on it. . . but I was a little disappointed. I enjoyed the text and the way each person/couple did something different with their space -- and those tiny apartments were amazing! -- but I was disappointed with the photos and the captions. I thought the photos looked sort of amateurish, and should have been bigger. Sometimes they referred to an object in a caption, but it was hard to find it in the photo! Often, the photos showed only a tiny section of a room, when a complete view and perspective would have been much more helpful. Overall, I enjoyed this book, but with these caveats. Anyone else feel that way?


5 out of 5 stars Love it so much, I ration only a chapter per night...   July 10, 2008

Seriously. One of the most inspiring books I own. And yes, I really do ration a chapter a night so (hopefully) it never ends! One thing you'll learn - all creativity is apparently born in IKEA. Who knew?!

This book is as good as I expected it would be; tons of ideas and ingenious solutions to space problems. Very talented people who achieve an individual look usually without mounds of money.
