English Houses By Ben Pentreath

"Eight years have passed since the first edition of this book. It's wonderful to see it being reprinted again, not least, I think, because it proves the adage that while nothing dates as quickly as fashion, nothing stays in fashion longer than timeless design-which is really at the core of what I try to do."

In this timeless and beautiful book, now reissued complete with a brand-new introduction, renowned architectural and interior designer Ben Pentreath presents an insightful overview of the classic English style. The classic English interior is a timeless one, characterized by richness of color and texture, a mixture of old and new pieces and a generous layering of books, paintings, cushions, ano flowers. In English Houses, Ben visits 12 classically English homes divided into three sections: London, Country, and Country House.
