A blend of projects, instructions, and insights
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 23 years ago
Part of the 'global crafts' series, Marion Elliot's Tibet deserves ongoing recommendation as an excellent blend of projects, instructions, and insights on world design. These projects are centered around Tibetan culture and provide full-page color photos to reveal Tibetan interior design.
a colorful book with creative ideas
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I really enjoyed reading this book and getting design ideas from it. There are some really interesting color combinations and patterns that are displayed throughout the book, and instructions are given for making Tibetan-style crafts. I especially liked the idea of painted chair-guards along the walls, the hanging lanterns, and the prayer-flag curtains. The instructions are detailed, but not hard to follow. While some of the craft ideas are more basic, they do leave room for you to create your own interpretations of them. There is some drawing involved for some of the projects, but there are templates in the back of the book for those who aren't so inclined.
