Day 226: London Open Door

Not only did we get to wander round City Hall and check out the spectator seats in the London Assembly, we also got to wander round a couple of really fabulous private homes. One especially was very inspiring. A very clever use of small spaces to create a strong sense of space and tranquility - complete with mirrors to create faux skylights, a compressed air-powered one person lift that made me think of Augustus Gloop going up the chocolate chute, and lots of amazing art.
It seemed intrusive enough to be traipsing through a stranger's home, photographing it too would have been a step too far. So you'll have to make do with this pic in city hall.
