Chris Dyson Architects has completed Maison Colbert, a multifunctional space comprising a family home, studio, and gallery, situated behind a row of East End shopfronts.

Interior design was undertaken by Buchanan Studio and the clients are Philip Colbert, an artist, and Charlotte Colbert, a writer and filmmaker.

Located in Spitalfields, Maison Colbert occupies a row of what were semi-derelict four-storey houses, historically referred to as ‘mean dwellings’ by historian Nikolaus Pevsner.
