But this book is not just another kitchen/bath book; it is the last book on these two subjects that youll ever need.Do not skip any pages; not even the introduction. Every single page of this book has valuable information; great solutions; and unique ideas.In the beginning chapters; design basics for both kitchens and baths are discussed in detail; followed by construction requirements that are clearly explained by supportive pictures and illustrated drawings. When you reach the"Ergonomic Design" section;you will read one of the most valuable chapters in the book.This concept is really what makes this book unique.Even if you already know what this term means; you will learn how to implement it more effectively through the examples and specific illustrations throughout each chapter.For example;reduce back and muscle strain by placing dishes in deep drawers near the dishwasher rather than in upper cabinets. Or elevate the dishwasher itself; thereby avoiding the continual awkward lifting and the strain of bending over so far and so often.Needless to say; the full "how-to" is in the book.There are endless tried and true solutions using ergonomic design to solve problems; and you will benefit from every one."Kitchen and Bath Design"is not just a book with great ideas for a pretty kitchen or bath; it is a book that will help you design and build the most beautiful; functional room possible using ergonomic principles to meet your personal requirements. The most amazing feature of this book is the immense amount of organized information.You can indeed find the solutions to almost any design problem in just this one book.Ok. So who is this book for? I think it is a necessity for anyone who has anything to do with a kitchen or bath project. Whether you are a home owner; manufacturer; lighting designer;interior designer; new construction or remodel contractor; this is the book for you. I would give "Kitchen and Bath Design" ten stars if I could.0 of 0 people found the following review helpful.
