My primary purpose is to get new design ideas and this book delivers it well with impressive photography and good selections!0 of 6 people found the following review helpful. Not Received this bookBy AnneCelestI have not received this book. I have only received the New Asian Home. Obviously I dont hate something I have not seen but this is the only way I can submit this23 of 23 people found the following review helpful. Gorgeous book; but not necessarily useful for design ideasBy Esther SchindlerThis is an undeniably beautiful coffee table book; which shows plenty of photos for bathroom design in Asian countries (Japan; China; Thailand; etc). If what you want is an overview demonstrating how gorgeous a bathroom can be; given an unlimited budget and (often) a lot of space; then youll probably find this a five-star book.That wasnt what I was hoping for; however; so Im personaly a little disappointed. First; when you can buy the finest (such as lots of marble) then its easy to create something beautiful. For my purposes... as a new homeowner; Ive been considering doing one of my bathrooms with an Asian theme. This book didnt give me much in the way of ideas for that. On the other hand; its so pretty that I dont really mind.
