In loving memory

A door left open.
For Rick.

Rick Williams created the Academy of Spherical Arts—a place for beautiful things, good company, and a life well lived.

The Academy closed in 2012. This is its world, brought back to life in his memory. Step inside and imagine another evening at One Snooker Street.
