After hefty renovations, the second floor of Soane's Museum (London's perhaps best kept secret) is finally revealed in all it's glory, restored to how they would have appeared 160 years ago. Take a stroll through Soane's Model Room, through his bedroom, book passage, oratory and morning room, and uncover the secrets of Britain's finest collector.
