Modern English

Helen Chislett’s Modern English showcases 18 landmark projects that celebrate the critically acclaimed interiors of leading English design studio Todhunter Earle.

Founded by Emily Todhunter and Kate Earle in 1998 and based in Chelsea, London, the design studio Todhunter Earle is renowned for creating beautiful, sensitively considered interiors around the world. With a hugely diverse mix of projects, ranging from traditional country estates and uber-contemporary town houses to ski chalets and fashionable restaurants, one key element remains constant: their commitment to imbuing interiors with passion, dedication, and sensibility to place.

Here, 18 projects showcase their extraordinarily varied catalogue of work, revealing the pivotal factors and challenges encountered on each design journey. This sumptuous book encapsulates Todhunter Earle’s instinctive approach: relaxed, unpretentious, and discreet interiors that whisper rather than shout, each one embodying the right feel for the client.

Including original photography plus specially commissioned concept illustrations by renowned watercolorist Marianne Topham, Modern English will inspire design enthusiasts and fellow professionals alike.
