Terry Farrell was one of the pioneers of the Postmodern style, as seen in his iconic early TV-am building. This is the first book to focus on his interiors, where he consciously developed that style in its heyday and beyond.

As well as the original design for TV-am, the book includes 19 of his most striking interiors, such as the Charles Jencks House, The Dean Gallery, Edinburgh, and Charing Cross Station. Divided into three chapters on home interiors, gallery and museum interiors and workplace interiors, the book shows how Farrell’s designs have been influenced by his work as one of the world’s foremost urban planners and how they are integrated with their urban context.

Terry Farrell Interiors and the Legacy of Postmodernism will appeal to all those interested in contemporary architecture and interior design. It serves as a unique and invaluable document of the Postmodern era and makes Farrell’s argument for the continuing legacy of Postmodernist architecture.


Terry Farrell is a widely renowned architect whose work can be found all over the world and includes such major works as the MI6 building and the Charing Cross redevelopment in London, The Peak in Hong Kong and Incheon International Airport in South Korea.
