The New Design Museum

An Anglepoise lamp, a football and a Christien Meindertsma installation – in what kind of institution would you find such things sitting alongside one another? 606_980-7BF59CC6-687B-4091-BEBD-7C0EB0E54C21-600x350               There is probably only one and it is the Design Museum. For twenty five years the museum has been collecting, curating and considering key designs that have shaped the modern world. 606_980-86E7C0F6-D614-496E-8605-2C7B1B8DC401 After a long wait the museum is finally set to open in its new residence – the formerly derelict Commonwealth Institute. 606_980-EE0CFCCF-A653-4F1D-8127-83B8C45D40A6 With three times their former space there will be room for a dedicated gallery to display its permanent collection alongside exhibitions.
