Charlotte Dunford joined the team in 2022 as Editorial and Digital Assistant and is now The English Home’s Houses Researcher, where she is responsible for sourcing the beautiful and inspiring real-life homes that feature in the pages of the magazine and online. She also contributes to the website, compiling design ideas, creative techniques and best buys from English homes of all sizes and styles. After graduating from The University of Birmingham with a First Class Honours degree in English Literature, Charlotte worked in interiors and lifestyle PR for four years where her passion for interiors grew. An artist in her spare time, she has a particular love of highly decorative interiors and creative uses of colour and pattern. She is currently attempting to learn useful skills, such as upholstery and wallpapering, to redecorate her new home which she shares with her partner and her cheeky Australian Shepherd.
