    This seems to be one of the better how to books. Not perfect but useful.

    This book provides not only good ideas but “how to” as well. It is an impressive collection of interior photographs illustrating examples of architectural details use in a range of styles from formal to casual and period to eclectic. It is entertaining as well as informative–a good read!

    I bought this book when we were building our new home. It came in real handy. I love architectural details, but was not very familiar with the terms. It really helped me express to the builder what we really wanted. Great picture and excellent overall quality. Great book for anyone interested in architecture.

    I am a custom carpenter in Metro Detroit, and have a large library of carpentry / trimwork detail books. I mostly use these books for discovering my customer’s style and for generating ideas for their projects. This book is by far one of my 2 most referenced books in my library. It makes nearly every trip I make to a new customer’s home. It contains great photographs of very nice architectual details. I highly recommend it, and will soon be buying my second, and possibly third, copy.

    I bought this book for my wife for Christmas. She likes it as an inspirational book to get some ideas of what we can do for some woodworking/trim for our house.

    We find it a little light on the “how to” sections, so we also ordered the Trimwork book – part of the same series.
