English Museum of the Home
The Museum of the Home (formerly the Geffrye Museum of the Home) is a museum in the Geffrye Almshouses on Kingsland Road in Shoreditch, London. It explores home and home life from 1600 to the present day with a series of period room displays. In January 2018 the museum closed for a two-year £18m development project, and is due to reopen in summer 2020.The museum is housed in 18th-century Grade I-listed almshouses formerly belonging to the Ironmongers' Company which were built in 1714 thanks to a bequest by Sir Robert Geffrye, a former Lord Mayor of London and Master of the Ironmongers' Company.Until the recent closure, the main permanent displays were a series of room settings furnished and decorated to show the main living spaces and elements of domestic life through the centuries, reflecting changes in society, behaviour, style and taste.Several structures connected with the Museum are listed on the National Heritage List for England. The main museum building is Grade I listed and the niche in the north west corner of the forecourt of the Museum is listed Grade II*. The forecourt wall, gates and railings to the Museum are Grade II* listed, and the two K6 telephone boxes on the Kingsland Road outside the Museum are listed Grade II.

Czech Geffrye Museum
Geffrye Museum se nachází na Kingsland Road v Londýnském obvodu Hackney. Je pojmenováno po siru Robertu Geffrym, což byl bývalý Lord Mayor of London.
Je věnováno britskému nábytku, textiliím, obrazům a dekorativnímu umění. Zachycuje změny stylu anglického domácího interiéru v sérii pokojů z jednotlivých období od roku 1600 až do současnosti. Důraz je kladen spíše na styl střední společenské třídy než na vybavení královských a šlechtických sídel, kterým se věnují jiná muzea.
Dům byl postaven na požadavek Roberta Geffrye roku 1714. Modernizace a dostavba budovy z roku 1998 obsahuje i restauraci.

Spanish Museo Geffrye
El Geffrye Museum es un museo dedicado a la historia de la decoración de interiores inglesa en el distrito de Shoreditch, en el este de Londres. Lleva el nombre de Sir Robert Geffrye, antiguo Lord Mayor de Londres y director de la Ironmongers' Company.[1]
En el museo se exponen muebles, textiles y pinturas. Muestra la evolución del estilo doméstico inglés a través de once habitaciones decoradas en estilos que van desde el 1600 hasta el año 2000.[1][2] El énfasis está puesto en la decoración de interiores de las clases medias, en lugar de los muebles de la realeza y la aristocracia que suele verse en los museos de artes decorativas.[3]
Cuenta con una amplia biblioteca y un archivo comercial de mobiliario. En él se dictan talleres y conferencias,[4] y se realizan exposiciones temporarias sobre temas relacionados con la muestra permanente del museo. Una de ellas es Christmas Past, en la que las habitaciones son decoradas para reflejar 400 años de tradiciones de Navidad en los hogares ingleses.[5]
