Customer Reviews of Christopher Lowell's Seven Layers of Design
A Visual Learner Needed Help! When I heard Christopher talk about his "Seven Layers of Design" I couldn't wait to try it out. He was speaking to me! His book was extremely helpful, but being a visual learner, I thought the video would help all the more. I hate to say I was disappointed, but I was. It was redundant. I would have liked more examples with different rooms. The one room he uses is great, but the tape shows the same clips twice! Once about decorating and again about the psychology of seven layers. I found myself fast forwarding instead of listening. It will be a good reference tape, but I will probably use the book more.
What makes this one worth buying
First off, let me say that I am not a diehard Christopher Lowell fan. I do watch his show at least once weekly and I do use some of his ideas. Others leave me cold. But this video is WELL worth the price and well worth watching for several reasons. In addition to the "7 layer" philosophy promoted on the cover of this tape you get an additional bonus - a great pep talk on the psychology of creativity and decorating, sure to inspire and encourage even the least creative among us. If you are fearful of making ANY decorating decisions, afraid of failing or looking like a decorating dropout ( a decorating dodo, in other words), this part of the tape should help you break out of that rut. I also found the main part of the tape to be valuable, full of good, basic information, laid out in logical order from start to finish. As an example, Lowell suggests starting with your paint and carpeting or flooring and then making your MAJOR furniture purchases BEFORE you pick out your accessories, area rugs and other purchases that many people mistakenly start out with. If you follow his suggestions, including planning your color scheme and room layouts, you should avoid many costly and time-consuming mistakes. There are valuable tips for every step of the way. I plan to refer to this video often and am glad I made the purchase. Of course, you could buy the book instead but I found this to be a quicker way to get the information.
