The photos in the book are not just of windows----they also show the room itself, including upholstered furniture, bed treatments, walls, flooring, etc. So, it is a "decorating" book, not just a "window treatment" book. This book will be one of my favorites; I love just about all the photos. I also recommend the following two books: Diamond Baratta Design; and Great Colour & Pattern Collection with Betsy Speert.

This is a fabulous book with over 150 pages of colour plates showing creative variations on draperies, swags, shades, pleats, jabots, trims, hardware, and colour combinations by top window treatment designers. Photographs always include both a helpful closeup of the key element as well as a full view of the treatment as part of the room's theme. It also includes a glossary of terms and an extensive resource guide at the end. It's the best book I have on current day treatments covering a variety of traditional and contemporary styles.

If you are involved in designing for high scale clientèle, this book is not to inspire you. Many styles and fabric selection look outdated (except a beautiful cover page picture).
My old inspiring "friends" are "The Curtain Book" and "The New Curtain Book"
Rated by buyers -
Really lovely examples of window treatments from various locations in the country, from the simple to the ornate. Plus, a dictionary of terms and a list of sources.

This was a very interesting book and was a welcome addition to my portion
of my library on interior decorating. We are in the process of looking to purchase a historic Victorian home. And in this end all tips, hints and ideas are a great asset.
