1: Great book for Tuscan architectural and interior design
This book had many interior and exterior ideas for Tuscan home style. Many great pictures and descriptions of the style elements.

2: Yummy
I love Spanish and Italian architecture. This book has some of the best of both. It has great photos and you can almost feel yourself surrounded by the images presented. It is a great coffee table book, as well.

4: fake and hollow andalusian reflections
The impression I got from this book is comparable to one of those American restaurants with a name like 'Mexican American' and all the cooks are from the US. The title of the book says 'Andalusian' but there is nothing about it. The decoration in all houses is pretentious and over elaborated with objects filling all spaces. The houses scream 'fake' to anybody with direct contact with the real Andalusian style. Don't buy the book looking for Andalusian style. The only thing I saw related was the use of Mexican saltillo tile in a few floors. If you want Andalusian look for books with Moroccan style, like whitewash walls, 'albero' (ocre) colors on details, lots of Moroccan style tile, ery little furniture, baked clay tile on floors, etc. Some houses on the book did have courtyards but none had the Andalusian style.

5: At home with Tuscany in America
My husband and I are building a Tuscan style house, and we were looking for a book to give us more ideas on design as well as decoration. This book is excellent for that. The houses are beautiful, the decoration is very tasteful, and the pictures are great. This is a great book for someone wanting to build a Tuscan style house in America. My only regret is not buying this book BEFORE beginning our project.
