So, day in London and visited my favourite #museum Sir John Soane's Museum 🏛️🖼️ 😎

Join us for our April #SoaneLate , taking a closer look at the people and personalities who shaped the life of John Soane and his unique Museum. Enjoy a glass of wine and explore the collection by candlelight! 🕯️

📅 26 April, from 6pm | Book: bit.ly/4cAYa23 🎟️

Here’s the Soane from an angle you’ve never seen before! 🔍 After our neighbourhood crows got a direct hit on a panel of stained glass, abseiling experts were needed to drop off the back of the Museum, assess the damage and fit a custom-made replacement. Sorted! 👏

How do architects today use figures in their drawings, and how has this changed since John Soane’s time? ✍️ Fascinating insights from Office S&M, @OfficeMMX, nimtim architects and muf architecture/art in this new film, part of our #FancifulFigures exhibition! 🎥 youtu.be/-FHMoRMHZEQ

Good morning, London! 👋 We’re open throughout the Easter weekend, including today and Monday, so do pop in and ask our venerable sun god Apollo why the weather’s always a bit patchy on bank holidays!🌦️

Explore the former residence of Sir John Soane, one of the country’s greatest architects. The @soanemuseum has been kept as it was at the time of his death in 1837, and is full of priceless works of art, antiquities, sculptures and so much more.

#LetsDoLondon #VisitLondon

Wonderful visit today with The Architectural Heritage Fund team to Sir John Soane's Museum 🏛️🖼️, the ultimate treasure box of architectural & sculptural wonders, plus a couple of fun Shakespearean references.

There’s nothing else in London quite like the Soane after hours! 🌈🕯️

Join us for evenings of stories and wonder, and learn more about this unique Museum’s remarkable history. There are still spaces available for our March and April #SoaneLates : bit.ly/3wRXPrD 👋🎟️

Let’s explore the Breakfast Room at the @soanemuseum, a space John Soane built to celebrate the ‘poetry of architecture’. I think it’s the perfect distillation of everything that makes Soane fascinating as an artist, collector and human!

This Easter break, we’re hosting a Matt + Fiona architectural design workshop for 11 to 14 year olds, exploring Soane's design legacy and the sustainable ‘retrofit’ approaches of tomorrow! 🏗️

📅 3 April, 10am - 4.30pm | Find out more: bit.ly/49CS3Zo 🎟️

The Picture Room at the Sir John Soane's Museum 🏛️🖼️ – isn’t it incredible? Hogarth, Canaletto, Piranesi, all in such elegant and innovative surroundings. There really is nothing else like it in the world!

A wonderful scrapbook of a museum.

Yesterday we happened upon the absolute gem that is Sir John Soane's Museum 🏛️🖼️.
The house of Sir John Soane displays his immense collection of antiquities, furniture, sculptures, architectural models & paintings.
So many incredible architectural details as well.
I highly recommend a visit!

Fancy a new challenge, at the heart of life in this remarkable Museum? ✨👋

We’re looking for a collaborative and diligent Office Manager and PA to the Director. Come and help us share the Soane with visitors from around the world!

It’s wonderful to be at Sir John Soane's Museum 🏛️🖼️ and to be discovering so much about each remarkable space!

Join me for a turn around the Dome, which John Soane crafted as a way for his pupils to explore the architectural principles of ancient Greece and Rome, without leaving London.
