Design as a force for good<\/strong><\/h3>\nFounded in 2005 by Matt Gibberd and Albert Hill, “The Modern House is an estate agency that helps people live in more thoughtful and beautiful ways. We believe in design as a powerful force for good<\/em>” – an ideal we couldn’t agree more with.<\/p>\n\nAn authority on good design, their name is inspired by F.R.S. Yorke’s celebrated book ‘The Modern House’ (1934), which introduced Modern Movement architecture to a British audience.<\/p>\n
Today, inspired by the principles of modernism, The Modern House represents design-led homes across the UK which celebrate light, space and a truth to materials. They understand the value of well-designed homes, embracing an ethos of thoughtful, considered design close to our hearts, and champion only the best in the UK.<\/div>\n
\n
They specialise in design-led, architecturally intriguing properties from former factories to art deco gems, modernist estates, urban spaces, loft conversions, new-builds and even partnerships with Turner prize-winning architects Assemble.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
With over 400, 000 social media followers and an average of 40 press articles per month, alongside their own award-winning design blog, they have developed something of a cult following and their online editorial platform, magazine and podcast now serve a public who are as happy thinking about these unusual homes as buying them. (Their Instagram account has the largest number of followers globally of any estate agent.)<\/p>\n
