books i love: english style & decoration

i love design resource books-in fact, i have an embarrassingly huge collection of them. i've curbed my addiction to buying books this past year due to lack of funds, but i did buy myself this little christmas present. i love this book because it doesn't just reproduce and organize designs as some resource books do. while these kinds of books are great, this book does a little more by reproducing the actual resource with a brief, but detailed description, which gives me a reference for the design and richer, more fruitful experience...purchase this book here.
