Townhouse - by Peter Martin (Hardcover)

Book Synopsis

The definitive guide to Townhouse style from the world's leading interior designers. An inspirational journey told through interviews and 250 stunning images.

The townhouse has become an ideal of city living, evoking elegance, proportion, and the sense of a private world in the heart of the metropolis. More than any particular interior or architectural style, the townhouse represents a way of life.

Townhouse takes you inside the world's most beautiful and stylish townhouses, such as an 18th-century Amsterdam canal house restored by Soho House designer Vicky Charles, a classic John Nash London townhouse renovated by Albion Nord, and an exquisite Mediterranean Revival house in Los Angeles reimagined by Night Palm. From Victorian London terraces and New York brownstones to Miami Modernism, contemporary Australian and Beaux-Arts Paris, Townhouse is a stunning photographic journey told through interviews with the world's leading interior designers.

A luxury fabric-bound edition with over 230 large-format colour images, Townhouse is this generation's definitive survey of period and contemporary townhouse style.
