In all honesty, I didn't read much text in this book but paid close attention to the photos. Despite being 15 years out from publication, there was much in here that was still very much in style. I don't think most of the baths were what I would consider "small," though, but there are lots of practical ideas I can use for my small master bath renovation.

This book was very informational and I will probably be replacing the look of one or more of my bathrooms come the new year. I have already started working out the plans. There were a lot of helpful space saving and decorative ideas in this book.

Some pretty good ideas, in my style range.

Their idea of a small bath is 9x12. Try 5x5. And budget? $6,000. $14,000. Shaking head.

This book was okay. Not my favorite bathroom book.

Lots of good ideas for small bathrooms! A small bath can look up-to-date and trendy with these ideas.

A book organized like a home design magazine. Ugly solutions and quite stuffy.

Has a few designs that actually showcase small bathrooms, some I actually liked and were doable. Other designs and ideas, definitely seemed more for what I'd consider a not-so-small bathroom in a way that isn't very "live in" friendly.
