Home Renovation Frank Ching & Dale E. Miller How to transform your home into a more functional, comfortable, and pleasing environment is fully explained here and illustrated by Frank Ching's delightful graphics. Far more than a "project" book, this guide melds useful construction information with important planning and design ideas that should precede any decision to renovate or remodel your home. Practical steps are given for: * documenting one's present home and evaluating current and future needs. * improving existing space through use of light, color, window and door modifications, wall rearrangement, and furnishings * converting attics, basements, garages and porches into livable rooms * adding space to various rooms by altering foundations, floors, walls and roof * remodeling or adding kitchens and bathrooms Home Renovation is unique in its coverage of both the planning and construction of any home alteration. It is hand lettered throughout in Frank Ching's inimitable style.
