He really has the old + new together amazingly well. [/quote]

It is nice, but you need a grand historic home to really pull this off.  It would look silly if I tried to recreate this in my late c 1990s middle class American house.[/quote]

you also need a lot of space to pull of knick-knack-y without it feeling cluttered. [/quote]

Most of the pictures of Pentreath's work shows rooms that are rather modestly sized. English houses are rarely large until you get to the country house scale. Even larger houses tend to have multiple smaller rooms rather than fewer but larger rooms. Pentreath isn't for everyone, as no design is for everyone, but to me I don't find his rooms overly cluttered. They're not minimalist, of course, but I've seen some more spare decors done by him that were nicely done too. But for anyone who's interested in balancing traditional with contemporary should look to him for ideas for what can be done.

I agree, the photos in the link don't look cluttered.[/quote]
