  • The World of Interiors presents Visitors' Book with British fashion designer Erdem Moralıoğlu, as we tour Sir John Soane’s London Museum. Step inside the life of one of the foremost architects of the Regency era, Sir John Soane, as we explore his vast collection of paintings, architectural fragments, drawings and more.
    ‘It’s almost like Sir John Soane’s just left the building and shut the door,’ says Erdem Moralıoğlu as he sits in the recently restored Drawing Office. Erdem describes the space as an ‘extraordinary maze and labyrinth of treasures,’ which is frozen in time with findings that date back to ancient roman and grecian periods. Watch the full episode of Visitors’ Book, as we explore Sir John Soane’s house and museum in London.

    Erdem is a very good presenter. His voice is calming. His tone patient, engaging, and informative. Please do a whole series with Erdem as narrator and host - thank you!

    We owe so much to the curators that have returned it to what it was when Sir John passed! Extraordinary lifelong effort by many!

    Every time I am in London, I am drawn back to Sir John Soane's museum. And every time I step into the house, I step into his special kind of magic.

    I love this place. It is very compelling, and you do indeed feel that Soane will be back in just a few minutes. A most cherished moment was from the first time I visited in the early 1990s and I was actually the only visitor there. I was admiring the Hogarths and the gentleman docent said hang on a mo and got a hooked stick and started unfolding the walls which aren't really walls but wall-sized panels that are hung with at least a couple of dozen Hogarths hidden within these "linen-fold" panels that were designed by Soane himself. You would never expect from just walking into the room that you were seeing only a fraction of Soane's collection of Hogarths. Absolutely magical. Thank you kind docent; I hope you are well.

    I worked in Lincoln inn fields in the 90’s & didn’t realise this was where the Soane museum was. I must go back & visit. Fascinating

    One of my favorite places in London. I love the un-museum like atmosphere, no pristine and clean surfaces, you feel like you are on a treasure hunt.

    Experienced the home in 2004, it makes my mess look minimalist. An Amazing Collection to boggle the mind every step of the way. I'd go back if I get to go to London again.

    I just love it when it’s museums tours ❤
    Most museum tours out there are actual visitors and their phones passing through noisy crowds, so to have professional and quiet videos like this is a treat. Thank you!

    I've seen another video about the cleaning and restoration of one of those rooms. That museum is full of so many beautiful things!

  • @mickmickmickmickmickmick

    Absolutely stunning, to be sure, though grotesque in equal measure. A colonial treasure trove of stolen objects.

    I’m sorry, but I bet you that about 80% of what you saw in those rooms are stole items.
