Sometimes the algorithm serves up gold. That’s certainly the case with the brilliantly bonkers Suffolk home of Benjamin Smith; a real East Anglian wunderkammer.

The antique dealer - who goes by @theschoolforscandal - lives in a Victorian seaside villa which doubles as a by-appointment showroom for his insatiable collecting (what he calls “the habit”).

Read the story of how it evolved from a single flat (& former squat) into a grand three-bedroom family home that’s bursting with collected treasures in today’s @obsmagazine
