"Obama White House designer Michael S. Smith tackles kitchens and
baths, two of the most challenging rooms in the home—combining
inspiring images of Smith’s projects from around the world with his
practical insights. A resources section gives recommendations for
everything from appliances to wall coverings." ~Architectural
Digest
"After doing up the Obamas' White House, Michael S. Smith --
interior designer to the Hollywood elite and lesser (but no less
affluent) mortals -- pulls on the rubber gloves with his latest
coffee-table tome, "Kitchens and Baths." Utilizing as visual
examples homes he designed -- as well as others he admires for
their eating and bathing zones Mr. Smiths book is broken into
regions ("Beach," "Town," "Country") that provide loads of
inspiration. Ultimately, perfecting pantry and potty is a game of
hide and seek: keeping the inner workings concealed but reachable."
~Wall Street Journal
"...it’s quite thoughtful of Smith to hone in on that niche and
deliver inspiration targeted at those who are in search of
inspiration for the two rooms in which most people spend a good
bulk of their time." ~La Dolce Vita
