Book Description
Save time with topic-by-topic guide to interior design and space planning

"...is a comprehensive reference of all that was left out of the well known 'Ramsey-Sleeper' Graphics Standards that serves as the standard reference of many architectural offices... thorough and informative, providing what every office needs. It is clearly a superior and more organized interior design 'reference' book than most others on the market. A must for any office involved in interior design and space planning" --This text refers to an out of print or unavailable edition of this title."
