Average Rating:
 Rating:  - Beautiful book....for your suburban coffee tableThis book could be described as a hardback edition of the "Best of Hello! magazine bathrooms". The most contemporary and modern bathrooms have been photographed to death and some commentary on bathroom planning has been added. As if anyone is reading. This is a book for the Upper middle class north-west London woman to ponder over, whilst wondering if she can afford £6000 for a glass sink. The pictures are very professional and the book is well laid out and lovely to look at. The cons? Look carefully at the photos, and you will notice a lot of recycling. A lot of the photos are the same bathroom from different angles. Second, it is very clear that a lot of these are not practical bathrooms for everyday use. I understand that that is not necessarily the point (these are bathrooms for mansions or Belgravia apartments)but if the text is giving advice on bathroom planning, the implication is that the reader may be planning a bathroom of their own. I would not recommend this as a book for someone planning a house. Do that in conjunction with your architect, and if you have money, the salespeople will adorn you with catalogues for free. Buy this book if you like looking at expensive houses. Rating:  - Marvellous bookA rich repast of fine desire and exotic ideas. No excess drapery, no fiddly ornamentation. Just cool stuff. Rating:  - Mostly concerns modern bathrooms with a cold anaemic lookThis book gives a good insight to bathrooms with an ultra modern look but does not tackle other differnet styles such as traditional, rustic, Mediterranean or ethnic look bathrooms. This leaves the book with a cold feel about it and limited in scope. I found more design concepts and better ideas from bathroom suppliers brochures or DIY books especially where plumbing and different kinds of tiling are concerned Rating: - Tantalising visualisation of all your bathroom dreamsI've never seen so many bathrooms in a book before. I've certainly never seen so many that I would like to own. If you are planning a bathroom or your just dreaming about one this is the collection of reference pictures that you need. Vinny Lee has pitched the copy just right. It's not too technical to put off the designer but it offers enough detail to explain to a qualified plumber how to construct the bathroom of your dreams. Buy it.  Try searching the Internet for "Bathrooms: Creative Planning for Beautiful Bathrooms" or Ebay for "Bathrooms: Creative Planning for Beautiful Bathrooms".
