In his previous book, "Restore. Recycle. Repurpose.: Create a Beautiful Home", Florke discussed his decorating style with an eye toward sustainability. Here he focuses on his "three muses of design: comfort, economy, and color," as demonstrated in seven homes, from an Iowa farmhouse to a Harlem, rowhouse. Accompanied by more than 150 color photographs, Florke describes the renovation and decoration of the kitchens, living and dining rooms, bedrooms (including kids' rooms), bathrooms, and porches with decorating advice and tips on the restoration process. Safety concerns, flea market shopping advice, and exterior design suggestions are also included.
