ENGLISH HOUSES: INSPIRATIONAL INTERIORS

Renowned architectural and interior designer Ben Pentreath presents an overview of the classic English style. Visiting 12 very different homes, he explores the unique spirit of the English House – restrained and simple, yet carrying a generosity of touch and a richness of colour and texture. The book is divided into three sections: London, Country, and Country House. The interiors featured range from a 1930s pied-a-terre in London's historic St James to designer Veere Grenney's tiny Palladian Temple folly in Suffolk, and Wardington, a 16th-century stone manor house in Oxfordshire.
