**Laura and Pepe’s Guide to De Beauvoir**

From the moment I strolled past the vibrant Hectors on a crisp autumn evening while on my way to view my flat, I knew De Beauvoir had captured my heart. Nearly 18 months have passed since then, and I've had the privilege of calling this enchanting pocket of London home. In that time, I've explored the diverse and delightful establishments that dot the neighbourhood, each contributing its own unique flair to the tapestry of De Beauvoir.

**EAT**

*SWEET THURSDAY* - Indulge in mouthwatering pizza, pasta, and delightful salads at this gem. Whether you choose to dine in or opt for a takeaway via online ordering or Deliveroo, be sure to try the Pesto Dip—it's an absolute game-changer. And don't forget to explore their fantastic selection of natural wines in the bottle shop.

*THE TALBOT* - Immerse yourself in the cosy gastropub vibes of The Talbot. With a consistently excellent menu and a roast that's nothing short of exceptional, this intimate spot also boasts a selection of meticulously crafted cocktails.

*THE HUNTER S* - Affectionately known as the 'porn pub,' The Hunter S is a haven for delectable pub grub and roasts. Don't miss their honey mustard sausages—my personal favourite. It's also a fantastic spot to bask in the summer sun on their outdoor benches.

*DE BEAUVOIR ARMS* - Surprise, surprise—more delicious pub food awaits at De Beauvoir Arms. Their memorable roast, especially the incredible chicken gravy, has secured its place in my heart. Whether it's a laid-back weekday evening or a weekend lunch, DBA never disappoints, offering a tempting £8.50 lunch menu on weekdays.

**DRINK**

*HECTORS* - This lively spot holds a special place in my heart, as I first spotted it while viewing my flat. The outdoor buzz, come rain or shine, complements a curated collection of natural wines, making Hectors a perennial favourite.

*THE SCOLT HEAD* - While it rightfully deserves a spot in the 'eat' section, I can't help but categorise it under 'drink' due to the sheer fun it exudes. Many unplanned nights out have stemmed from the infectious vibes at The Scolt Head.

*DUKE OF YORK* - What sets Duke of York apart for me is its ambient lighting—vintage French style that creates the cosiest atmosphere. Beyond the aesthetics, they also know their way around a good cocktail.

*ROSEMARY BRANCH* - Despite being in the 'drink' section, Rosemary Branch is renowned for its soulful atmosphere. Known for a great roast and the occasional piano accompaniment at 4 pm, it's a delightful pub that transcends expectations.

**BRUNCH**

*DE BEAUVOIR DELI* - A renowned spot for a leisurely brunch, De Beauvoir Deli offers a cosy setting, even during winter when you can snugly sit outside with a blanket. With a regularly changing menu, it's perfect for a sit-down meal or grab-and-go options like bagels and coffee.

*BOBO & WILD* - Nestled on the edge of De Beauvoir, overlooking Shoreditch Park, Bobo & Wild is a go-to for a tasty brunch. Friendly staff and a comfortable ambiance make it an excellent spot for both indulgence and productivity.

**COFFEE**

This section, perhaps unsurprisingly, is the most extensive, reflecting the abundance of excellent coffee spots in the area. It's worth mentioning that, although I'm not a coffee drinker myself, my friends who are enthusiasts confirm the delightful quality of coffee in the below. I will however highlight the things I love about these establishments as I go.

*DE BEAUVOIR DELI* - Beyond its delectable British fare, the Deli's vibrant scene outside and a hatch for takeaway coffee make it a morning go-to. Don't miss the Dusty Knuckle cinnamon bun—a personal morning ritual.

*DE BEAUVOIR WHOLEFOODS* - Right across from the Deli, Wholefoods serves up more than just groceries. A hatch offers coffee, hot and cold beverages, baked goods, and sandwiches. My personal favourite? The Turmeric Latte.

*BATCH BABY* - Embracing a hip and trendy vibe, Batch Baby, located in the Rose Lipman building, offers a cosy space that doubles as a perfect spot to work.

*2&4 VINTAGE* - Enjoy your coffee surrounded by beautiful vintage pieces at 2&4 Vintage. Maurice's fabulous collection adds a touch of charm to your coffee and cake experience.

*52A COFFEE HOUSE* - Selma's beautiful coffee shop on the corner of Southgate and Downham Road boasts a cosy atmosphere and an extensive selection of delicious cakes and brownies.

*MIRA* - Opposite The Hunter S, Mira stands out with its charming tiles that read 'Milk, Eggs, Butter.' Offering basic staples and salads, it's a fantastic spot for a quick coffee fix. My personal favourite? The homemade cake.

**DO**

*ROSEMARY BRANCH THEATRE* - Inside the pub where I once spotted Greg James, the Rosemary Branch Theatre hosts a variety of performances and community experiences, ranging from theatre and comedy to live music and workshops. Keep an eye out for the upcoming festival of female, femme, and non-binary-led clowning and comedy called 'Look for the Woman,' starting on March 1st.

*JAZZ @ SCOLT HEAD* - Every last Thursday of the month, the back room at The Scolt Head transforms into a jazz club with Peter Werth and his Jazz Crew. Having recently discovered this hidden gem, I'm committed to making it a regular occurrence. The experience is truly incredible, and booking a table is a must.

*REGENTS CANAL* - Embark on a scenic journey along Regent's Canal. Head left towards Haggerston, London Fields, and eventually Victoria Park to discover seasonal gems like Towpath and bustling markets like Broadway Market and Victoria Park Market on weekends. If you turn right along Regents Canal, you'll find yourself in Angel, with Camden Passage being my favourite spot in the area.

Laura Kelly London x Simona Interiors Interview

Image above: Simona and I catching up in De Beauvoir

Born and raised in Italy, Simona Marsibilio embarked on a dance career that eventually led her to the vibrant streets of London in 2008. With a background in ballet, that included performances with renowned companies such as the English National Ballet and the Birmingham Royal Ballet, her artistic journey led her to study interior design. As I sit with her to discuss this, I see her eyes light up as she talks about how the streets of De Beauvoir have inspired her.

From Ballet to Interiors 

I asked Simona how she discovered her first love of performing arts: ‘I started dancing with my best friend when we were very young. I loved the smell of the backstage area which I thought was magical and dancing became a subtle way for me to express myself, without feeling like I was the centre of attention.’

Having settled in London, she was struggling to find what to do in the gaps between dance contracts, and started thinking about pursuing a new path: ‘I enjoyed spending afternoons strolling the high streets in East London and always found myself drawn to homeware shops. It got me thinking how could I turn this into a hobby or a business, and with the support of my husband and friends, I finally decided to study interior design,’ she told me. ‘I enrolled in a course at UAL (University of the Arts London), instantly bonded with my tutor and I haven’t looked back!’

Images below: Simona performing

Inspiration from De Beauvoir 

During lockdown, Simona found solace and inspiration in the quaint neighbourhood of De Beauvoir. ‘As I wandered our leafy streets, I couldn't help but be captivated by the diverse array of architectural styles and interior designs. From modern and sleek to traditional and timeless, every home offered a glimpse into the lives of its inhabitants. I was captivated,’ she said.

Simona’s favourite stretch of De Beauvoir is from the square to the end of Northchurch Road. ‘It’s so idyllic, the houses and gardens are gorgeous. In spring and summer I love walking down the road, smelling and photographing the roses that peep out from the fences.’

She also loves the atmosphere of our food and drink spots; ‘I love to go to the Scolt Head and De Beauvoir Arms, the pubs are warm and cosy and the food is great. I also love that The Scolt Head has live music and organises the Christmas Caroles’ And when it comes to pizza? ‘the atmosphere of Sweet Thursday makes me feel at home.’ High praise from an Italian!

Image below: Simona and I on our fave road, Northchurch Road!

Creative Process and Signature Style

I asked her what processes she uses when designing for a new client: ‘I love how everyone has a different way of living and I watch how a client moves through their space. This helps me design to their specific flow. I describe my signature style as relaxed, airy and light and love effortless interior design which is not overly structured and that doesn’t make you feel you’re sitting in a museum’.

Simona creates soft, textured spaces using a large variety of different fabrics and believes above all that homes should be a place to relax in. Drawing inspiration from the world around her, she seamlessly integrates earthy tones with pops of colour, architectural features with modern accents and creates spaces that are both functional and visually stunning.

Simona has especially enjoyed this process whilst working on one of her most recent projects; a Victorian Terrace in Walthamstow,where she is working with the owners to blend old-world charm with contemporary comforts. Guided by the client's brief for a light and airy space, Simona reintroduced architectural elements like fireplaces and Crittal windows to honor the property's heritage while adding a touch of modern sophistication. 

Images below: Simona's moodboard for her recent Walthamstow project (left). A space staged by Simona in Belsize Park (right).

Her decision to pursue interior design was not just about finding a new career path but also about finding fulfilment outside of the dance studio. Fuelled by curiosity, she continues to dance to the rhythm of her own creativity.

If you would like to discuss an interior design project with Simona, you can check out her website: https://www.simonainteriors.com/, or you can each her on email: simona.marsibilio@me.com 

Simona and I also work together in De Beauvoir and the wider North and East London areas to help clients style, stage and market their home for sale. You can also contact me via phone on 07594 150 021 or email on laura.kelly@theestate.agency.

A bit about me: with a background in property development, I founded Laura Kelly London on the belief that estate agency could and should be done better. I provide a hands on, personal approach to style and stage your property - working with professional videographers, photographers and copywriters to capture your home in its best light. www.laurakellyldn.co.uk
