5Great resource  Nov 13, 2006 By Merope
Whether you are working with a designer, building a house or just looking for ideas, this is an important and valuable book. NOTE: it is 99% photos of different styles and designs of kitchens. It is broken up into modern, country, minimalist, etc, and each section has about 30 photos of different kitchens. It contains no descriptions of materials or how toos. The photos are fabulous and the ideas are varied. I guarantee that you will find a kitchen that fits your style in this books. Good luck!

5500 beautiful pictures of unique kitchens  Feb 04, 2007 By John M. Danskin
I think the kitchens are all european. The pictures are mostly full page. There is almost no text. There is very little sourcing (names of some designers in tiny type on the side of the picture, you'll have to google to find contact information, and then they'll be somewhere in europe.). This isn't a guide to fixtures. This is a book you'd use to communicate what you want to architects.

I love this book, but again, there is no sourcing, and you can't use it as a guide to fixtures.


4Great source of ideas  Oct 14, 2007 By Jan Schultink
Some comments about this book:

1) It's all pictures, not text. Something which I like (personal preference though). 700 pictures/500 kitchens.

2) Most of the kitchen (including the "romantic/traditional" ones) are really modern ("European" as some would call it here), not a book for people looking to create the "traditional" kitchen. Something I like, but again a personal taste.

3) I actually do not like most of the kitchens layouts in the book (again personal taste), but it helped me a lot to decide about combinations of materials (dark floor/light floor, corian/stone, metal/wood, etc.). I now know what NOT to do.

All in all, a good source of ideas.

1Worthless For What I Needed  May 18, 2007 By D. Kinman "Weekend Woodworker"
The book is great if you want 700 pages of sterile looking European kitchens. But if you want lots of ornate wood and raised panel cabinet doors, find a different book; this isn't it.
