CUSTOMER REVIEWS:

Very well written and informative -
As a beginning interior designer, I find this book to be extremely helpful. It is very well written and informative. I totally agree with all the reviews written before me. I recently went back home to Bulgaria to continue my interior design studies. I carried the book with me and found out that I actually forgot something - to bring the CD it came with! Make sure you review it - it has additional information and makes our lives as designers easier!

This book should 100% be in the hands of all those who are interested in the field of interior design!! -
If you wish to pursue a successful career as an interior designer, or you are keen to develop your interest in this field, my advice to you is to buy this book. Buy it, read it, and make it your good friend! Whatever your background, this course will encourage your individual creativity and help you to explore and further your own design ideas.
I am a student in The Metropolitan Institute of Interior Design, a career changer with English as a second language. I have read some interior design educational books before, but none of them gave me as much knowledge, nor inspired me to approach the subject with as much enthusiasm and passion as this book by Susan Slotkis.

outstanding -
This is the best reference in the designing industry. Should be in every designers library.

I great resource for anyone studying or practicing Interior Design -
This is a great reference book on interior design! It covers all the subjects of an interior design that a degree program would cover: design theory, color theory, history of design, business practices etc...(it's also a great source for the interior design vocabulary!)
I am an interior design student and this is the first place I go to when I need to research some aspect related to the design field.

And I just know it - it'll be my much used resource when I am out of school and working in the field.

Simply a Must-Have -
"Foundations of Interior Design" is an instrumental key for designers, design students and design enthusiasts all the same. This must-have handbook explores the profession from the inside-out, giving a vast overview of interior design as a whole yet delving into just the right amount of significant detail. Slotkis' style perfectly simplifies even the most intricate of information while providing plenty of helpful visuals along the way. Its title certainly rings true, for the "foundation" Slotkis lays for interior design is by far a solid one.
