A light filled, garden embracing, smoke and mirrors addition to a listed Regency classic.

De Beauvoir Square is a two storey rear extension and full house refurbishment of a Grade II listed family home in East London designed by a talented triplet of multi- disciplinary designers.

The original house is a rare and fine example of mid 19th Century Tudor Jacobean ‘Regency’ architecture and has been listed since 1975. The property had been unsympathetically extended and refurbished in the preceding decades and was in much need of a sensitive approach to transform it into a comfortable and calming family home.
