Most of us would like to improve our homes and increase their value, but very few of us have the money to pay an architect to come up with innovative solutions. In The Room Planner, interior designer Paula Robinson provides all the ideas and practical information needed to adapt the spaces in which you live. The book features dozens of clear, color-coded project plans, allowing you to pick and choose layouts and designs according to what works for your home, whether you have a studio or a five-bedroom house. With chapters on Valuable Space (increasing property value), Flexible Space (creating moveable partitions), High-Performance Space (making use of available space), and Room-by-Room Space (solutions for individual rooms), this is an essential manual for both current homeowners and those building a house from scratch.
