The School of Life has always believed that wisdom and wellbeing can be found not only in great ideas, but in beautiful spaces.

Earlier this year, they completed a full refurbishment of their Bloomsbury shop in London. Designed by architects Sash Scott and Tamzin Hanke in consultation with their founder, Alain de Botton, their new shop is a perfect marriage of form and function: utilising minimalist elegance to create more shelf and floor space to accommodate their ever-expanding range of books, games and emotional well-being tools and allowing customers more room to browse.
