The spaces featured in this book prove that good things really do come in small packages. Using mirrors to make a space feel larger, de-cluttering and the use of multi-purpose furniture are all tricks used to make your space appear bigger.
I like the chapter on "small wonders" showcasing an amazing wall-mounted workspace that is only seven inches deep but has room for a laptop, iPod + cell phone. Get your copy here.

I recently purchased Candice Olson's new book “Candice Olson On Design: Inspiration And Ideas For Your Home”. Even if you've never seen her TV show Divine Design you will find this book chock full of great photos, descriptions and her complete layout of each room.
You see the before/after pictures, her floor plans and sketches ROCK! It's amazing what she can do. She does not just create "show rooms" she makes the rooms functional for the family.
More details can be found here, where you can also order the book.
