🔍🏛️ Can you spot the similarities and differences between Pitzhanger and Sir John Soane’s other architecture? ✨
Soane’s signature use of light, space, and geometric forms in Pitzhanger can also be seen in his design of the Dulwich Picture Gallery and Sir John Soane’s Museum. Decorative ceilings and spatial ingenuity are prominent features of his work.
Soane’s architectural style was unique for its time, and its influences can still be seen today. Experience this for yourself and book your visit to Pitzhanger! 🌟 Visit www.pitzhanger.org.uk. 🏰✨
