Ever travelled somewhere new and noticed an eccentric building façade or a stunning, strangely symmetrical landscape and thought: ‘woah, that could totally be from a Wes Anderson movie’?

If the answer is yes, you’re not alone – and we’ve got some exciting news. Accidentally Wes Anderson, an Instagram account turned online community turned exhibition, is coming to London’s Old Brompton Road this December. 

The collection set to go on display consists of more than 200 pictures captured across the world, each of which somewhat resembles Anderson’s quirky and distinctive aesthetic. There’ll be seven themed rooms to explore, which’ll include transport, cities, nature, sports and maritime. There’s even a room dedicated to London. 

The original concept was dreamt up by Wally and Amanda, a Brooklyn-based couple who turned their holiday bucket list into inspiration for thousands of travellers. Think you’ve got a keen eye for Wes-esque features and façades? You can even enter a competition with your very own London AWA photographs for a chance of getting them included. 

This dazzling collection has already had two successful stints in Seoul and Tokyo. Have a look at the London set-up in all its neat, pastel glory.
