Space and light: how to maximise the potential of your home. Katherine Sorrell. 2005.

Whether the property you live in is large or small, in the town or country, a flat or a mansion, you’ll want it to feel uncluttered, spacious, light and airy. Space & Light answers the questions on how to achieve this quickly and inexpensively, and gives clever, practical examples of real homes that look fabulous as a result.

The first section, Elements, looks at the ingredients that help make a home more light and spacious, including colour, pattern and texture, storage, styles of furniture, mirror and glass, windows and lighting. Author Katherine Sorrell explains the different materials and techniques, and reveals the tricks that are most effective. The second section, Ideas for living, is a room-by-room analysis demonstrating how these elements combine to create beautiful, practical and enjoyable living spaces, all around the house.
