The Style Thesaurus by Hannah Kane

This book is part of a series designed for professionals and do-it-yourselfers to provide them with what I consider to be a simplified step-by-step process for designing and assembling different types of stairs. Each book will be written and illustrated specifically for the type of stairway specified in the title. Book 1 - How to Build and Frame Stairs This book provides you with step-by-step detailed instructions on how to design, layout stair stringers and build a variety of different sized straight stairways. Sections of this book or the entire book will be included in some of the other books as noted. Book 2 - How to Build and Frame Stairs with Landings This book includes book 1 and will provide you with step-by-step detailed instructions on how to design, position and build stairs with landings. Book 3 - How to Build and Frame Winder Stairs This book includes book 1 and will provide you with step-by-step detailed instructions on how to design, position and build winder stairs. We are currently working on the books listed below. Book 4 - How to Build and Frame Circular Stairs Book 5 - How to Build Stairs Using Metal Brackets Book 6 - How to Build Stairs with Odd Shapes Book 7 - How to Build Stairs with Routed Stringers Book 8 - How to Build and Frame Stair Handrails
The "clothes we wear.. function as a language that can, to some extent, be read," asserts journalist Kane in her comprehensive debut survey of clothing styles that "reappear time and time again" on city streets and in high-fashion magazine spreads. In each brief entry, Kane distills a style's history, signature garments, and role in popular culture... Students of fashion will be enlightened and delighted by this detail-rich resource, and even novices will be persuaded that "we are all stylists, assembling meaning to find our tribes." * Publisher's Weekly *
A genius concept aimed at enhancing everybody's wardrobes, Kane's brilliantly structured Style Thesaurus models a wide range of fashion combinations for all occasions. * Waterstones Best of 2023 blog *
