Libby Langdon's Small Space Solutions by Libby Langdon
A celebrity designer offers simple, smart solutions to small space quandaries When someone says they live in a small house or apartment, the image that comes to mind is all too often negative--cramped, cluttered, or confining. But America's leading small space designer, Libby Langdon, knows just how to counterthat stereotype. In Libby Langdon's Small Space Solutions, she offers a practical, user-friendly guide to decorating small spaces so they look stylish, beautiful, and larger than their actual dimensions.Libby provides hundreds of tips--or decorating tricks of the eye--for solving all small space challenges. Setting out from the premise that an inviting and yet functional space is achievable even on a tight budget, she delivers practicality and inspiration that's affordable. She covers it all--from how to find the theme of your room to styling and arranging items in a wall unit, from how to go green (using plants) to layering your bed linens for a luxe look. With step-by-step instructions, each chapter addresses the most common problems encountered in a particular space--living room, dining room, kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, office, or hall--and presents real solutions. Hundreds of stunning full-color photographs illustrate various design ideas and transformed spaces. Libby also spells out the top ten mistakes people make in small spaces. Whether you are an apartment dweller, first-time homeowner, or are just looking to downsize, Libby Langdon's Small Space Solutions proves that living with less doesn't mean living without luxury.
