Love this book
Usually when you get a school book you don't want to read it, but I'm obsessed with this book.

Seems to Have Lots of Info about Drafting!
I've only read the first two chapters so far, but the information seems clear and concise. The book seems like a good introduction to the drafting field, and specifically has sections about drafting interiors.

The drafting pictures are too small. P257,P245P237 the words are way too small.
The drafting pictures are too small. P257,P245P237 the words are way too small. Details information size is too small. It is difficult to read.

Good for students
I highly recommend this book for interior designer students and even for those starting their interior design career. It gives you a good insight of what to put on drawing plans while respecting code. Though, must keep in mind that the codes are American building codes, though there may be some similarities with Canadian ones, and Quebec, but still need to confirm with local and updated building codes.

Very general
Wish it included more detail drawings. But great for beginners.
