Review
"This attractive, fun book allows reader to custom design their own kitchen using spiral-bound pages split into three sections (illustrating walls, cabinets, and floors) to help visualize how different colors and materials look together. Floor plans can be created by employing reusable plastic stickers and a layout grid inside the book's covers (much like playing with Colorforms). The text includes tips on how to create an entire new kitchen or simply to update what one has with 'quick fixes.'" Librar Journal
