I love when my dear readers ...Dear Peggy-<br /><br /><br />Thanks. I love when my dear readers fine new ideas, new people, and new talent in my features.<br /><br />Oh, and I always suggest that as Terri did to borrow these books from the LIBRARY...and otherwise to buy from LOCAL BOOKSELLERS.<br />One reader asked if I get a &#39;commission&#39; from amazon.com for recommending these books.<br />Absolutely not. No. Never.<br />i select them very and totally independently from all the design books I read over a season, and select the ones that are worthwhile and important to save.<br />No...not a cent from amazon and I would not expect it.<br />Please buy from local BOOKSELLERS or from amazon if that is convenient...buying books is important.<br />very best, DIANEDiane Dorrans Saekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02259292681678952448[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543457325368639597.post-67774470824822293262012-12-18T07:59:13.750-08:002012-12-18T07:59:13.750-08:00Diane, always excited to see a post from you! I ha...Diane, always excited to see a post from you! I had never heard of Andrew Skurman until you brought him to my attention! now I am a fan-since I adore the UK. These are wonderful suggestions, each one; I can see now I must add to the library!

I&#39;...Terri-<br /><br /><br />I&#39;m thrilled to hear from you. I&#39;m happy the Andrew Skurman book is in the library, and there is much to learn about architecture. It would be wonderful for students to study it.<br />I like the Paris book, as it focuses very much on the topics I love and seek out in Paris--museums, galleries, art supply shops, book shops, and historical buildings and &#39;only in Paris&#39; boutiques and cafes. It&#39;s organized around neighborhoods--and an ardent walker/seeker/adventurer could plan days of wandering and exploring with this book. I know you love Paris--and I think you will find the style of this book very much to your taste.<br />You might like the author&#39;s blog as well.<br />Lovely to hear from you. Your enthusiasm and engagement in design and style are wonderful and inspiring.<br />Happy Holidays--DIANE<br />Diane Dorrans Saekshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02259292681678952448[email protected]tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6543457325368639597.post-18725488302471908662012-12-17T22:14:35.906-08:002012-12-17T22:14:35.906-08:00A wonderful list Diane. I have Darryl Carter&#39;...A wonderful list Diane. I have Darryl Carter&#39;s book on my Christmas list and have already borrowed the Andrew Skurman book and Henrietta Spencer-Churchill&#39;s from the library. I have learned a lot from both! I can&#39;t wait to look up the Paris book...it is a city to savour and this book sounds like &quot;just the ticket&quot; as you say! Thanks for your wonderful, detailed reviews!<br /><br />xo Terri<br /><br /> Windlosthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17014227226507484798[email protected]
