The extremely talented French artist JR gave a wonderfully detailed tour of the L'Observatoire Suite he designed for the Venice Simplon Orient Express. This incredible room features secret passageways that lead the rider into a variety of credibly luxurious micro-environments, such as a library and hidden tea room. The decor also makes references to JR's previous work.
