The Academy of the Arts: Will Gompertz’s vision for Sir John Soane’s Museum

To step into Sir John Soane’s Museum in Lincoln’s Inn Fields, London, is to enter a space that feels less like a public institution and more like a portal into one man’s singular, obsessive imagination. It is a „dense collection in a small footprint”, a labyrinth of light, mirrors, and antiquity that plays out like a lucid dream.
