## Description

Terence Conran has always believed that objects - and surroundings - that are plain, simple and useful are the key to easy living. By being practical and performing well over time, they are as much the antidote to superficial styling as they are to the shoddy and second-rate. Applied to the home as a whole, this discerning approach results in interiors that are effortlessly stylish, confident and timeless, with plenty of room for the expression of personal taste. Plain Simple Useful is organized according to the main activities that take place at home. Inspirational interiors, many of which are Conran's own, and a number of projects designed by him exclusively for this book, provide all the guidance you need to tailor-make your own storage. The book also features iconic examples of classic designs that will enhance any home, as well as a peek behind the closed doors of those well-ordered closets, pantries, and other storage spaces that contribute so much to easy living.

Review: I have found this book to be the most useful in planning a bath and kitchen remodel - I have found this book to be the most useful in planning a bath and kitchen remodel. It really does break the decisions down to the most basic, plain, useful ideas. There are so many design options out there but personally, if I'm doing a remodel of a room that needs to last 25 years, I prefer to weed out the trends. Conrad's book is the perfect guide to figuring out what makes a design timeless.
Review: A beautiful and useful book in the typical Conran style... Recommended. - Beautiful and useful book and the usual Conran style, which I love. And an excellent price for a very pretty and durable book.
