Oh dang it has a specific sequence of final steps from the floors to the furniture, with the work I’m hoping to do this is incredibly helpful so I know what I need to tear out first!
This is really nice, the book breaks down in detail the different roles a designer, an architect, and a general contractor take in doing interior renovation/design right down to things like the difference between a sales order and a purchase order and how that difference affects what the end customer has access to, information wise or that if you hire a subcontractor directly the GC may charge a 10% fee to allow for the cost of coordinating with that contractor.
This takes a lot of nice elements and somehow manages to ruin them all into profound blandness. (Not saying the designer because I’m being kind of mean.)

Also in the image text I forgot to mention on top of everything else the full floor rug is CHEETAH PRINT
Admittedly I have to design for hound so no I would not have a breakable glass thing and a tall metal thing on a table at just the right height for boops with nose or swishes of tail, but everything else works.
Also enjoy this thing about native shrub of Pennsylvania which I plan to use heavily since the people who owned my hopefully new house have a barren wilderness of grass and it is just too much to mow. https://primexgardencenter.com/native-shrubs-for-pennsylvania/
I am still a bit miffed that my realtor corrected me about the mountain laurel in the backyard by calling it rhododendron but if those are rhododendrons they are dying because they’re wee as heck.
“ Designing a space is a job for a person who relishes bringing order to chaos. Use lists, charts, and spreadsheets, and store it all in three-ring or digital binders. Cross-reference every detail.”
The New York School of Interior Design book about home design (titled Home) really gets me, yes to spreadsheets about howse
