  This volume helps readers to create a harmonious environment which depends upon blanacing priorities with technical know-how and imagination. Creating a peaceful home may seem like a simple notion. A home should be a refuge from a tough day or a difficult job; a place that is, above all, individual to the owner, containing one's possessions and expressing one's tastes and one's dreams. To make a home like this takes thought and time, though not necessarily much money. If one lives in town but years for the country, or has a modern apartment but longs for an old house with a built-in feeling of the past, this book aims to give ideas and directions for a home that should bring one closer to one's ideal while remaining realistic. It accepts that budgets for change may be limited, but places no limits on imagination or outlook.
