This project explores the material, social and cultural identities of elite transnational families resident in England and France (c.1870-1930). At the turn of the twentieth century, the nouveaux riches had emerged as a cosmopolitan elite characterised by the acquisition and assimilation of the economic and cultural capital associated with the nobility. By studying a dozen transnational families from this new bourgeoisie, and the various actors who contributed to shaping their houses, interiors and collections, this project explores the cultural and stylistic values that underpinned their new supranational identity and analyses how this new plutocracy reinvented patterns of taste and luxury.

该项目探讨了居住在英国和法国的精英跨国家庭的物质，社会和文化身份（C.1870-1930）。在二十世纪初，努沃的财富已成为一个国际化的精英，其特征是获得和同化与贵族相关的经济和文化资本。通过研究这个新的资产阶级的十几个跨国家庭，以及为塑造房屋，室内和收藏做出贡献的各种演员，该项目探索了文化和风格的价值观，这些价值观是基于新的超凡认同的基础，并分析了这种新的富丽有权的富丽堂皇的品味和奢华模式。
