A wealth of design advice is offered in these inaugural books in the publisher's "Design Guides" series. Each describes the decisions to be made when remodeling bathrooms and kitchens. Templer (Design Idea Book) discusses the various choices available for the kitchen, e.g., cabinets, countertops, and appliances, while Bradley, owner of the boutique Reclaim, covers the topics specific to bathrooms, e.g., toilets, showers, and ventilation.
