By John Loecke
Interior designer John Loecke makes organizing even the messiest house a less daunting task. With its easy to read text and colorful photographs, Organizing Idea Book: Home offers not only a range of fresh ideas but also practical knowledge, such as providing a mathematical equation for figuring out exactly how much shelf space you will need to fit your books, CD’s, videos, and DVD’s. First, Loecke establishes organizational basics and then dives into the house from room to room, analyzing each area to the fullest. Headlines and bullets within each chapter help readers find information fast. For example, in the chapter on Bathrooms, five simple steps reveal how to clean out and arrange a medicine cabinet. Covering rooms big and small, from foyer to garage, and everything in between, Loecke’s guide will help people organize their homes to better suit their life styles.
