Lovely pictures - By: JulieB, 15 Mar 2007 
This is smalll but lovely book - A5 size & only 40 pages but filled with great pictures (colour & black/white)and lots of information. I live in a 1930s property & bought the book to see what it might have looked like on the inside years ago, & I wasn't disappointed. The photos are of normal, everyday british homes, not posh or show homes of the day. The contents include architectural styles, furnishings, technology in the home & also the garden. Those wishing to recreate their home to the 1930s era would definitely find this book useful. Its worth the price in my opinion & the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars was that I think the book should have been longer.
A little gem - By: , 12 Aug 2003 
The 1930s Home' is a fascinating read, even if you've studied the history of domestic design. It's clearly illustrated & makes a superb reference tool on the era. It's a very slim book, but certainly one of my favourites.
An inspiration for stage designers everywhere - By: nigel.morgan@sihe.ac.uk, 07 Dec 2000 The amateur theatre group to which I belong recently mounted a short season of plays set in the 1930s. Having been recommended by a friend this book was an absolute godsend to our props/set design department as it provided an excellent source of inspiration. Thanks to this book we were able to achieve a reallly authentic period look for our productions.
It is a fascinating read. The text is lucid & informative & the pictures are lovely. Great stuff!
It's a Brilliant, Informative Booklet - By: , 27 Nov 2000 I am currently researching the Art Deco period for a future exhibition at work & have found this booklet extremely useful. It has given me the areas in which I need to research into & has saved me alot of time in researching for this information. What a relief that there is a concise booklet for me to keep referring to!!
