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（c.1870-1930）的精英跨国家庭的物质，社会和文化身份。在世纪之交，暴发户成为一个世界性的精英阶层，其特点是获得和同化与贵族有关的经济和文化资本。通过研究来自这个新兴资产阶级的十几个跨国家庭，以及为塑造他们的房屋，室内设计和收藏做出贡献的各种演员，该项目探讨了支撑他们新的超国家身份的文化和风格价值观，并分析了这个新的富豪统治如何重塑品味和奢侈品的模式。
