Howard Watson is uplifted by the ‘brave, graceful subtlety’ of Caruso St John's redevelopment of the Bethnal Green Museum of Childhood in east London. He finds the pared‐down spaces of the interior surprisingly in accord with the original Victorian structure, drawing their inspiration from ‘the regimented order of grand Victorian museology’.
