Step inside the design memory of Denmark. Here you will encounter the proud Danish design tradition in the museum’s extensive collection of Danish and international design icons, as well as groundbreaking exhibitions on the design of the future. The museum offers a string of exhibitions, ranging from the Victorian homes and collection manias of the past to contemporary designers and trends, dealing with the global issues of tomorrow. The museum also houses Copenhagen’s greenest museum garden, a superb café and a design shop with the classics as well as new and unique design finds.

Join us during the 3daysofdesign festival, as Designmuseum Danmark invites you to three days of reflection on the past, present and future of Danish design. As part of the 3daysofdesign festival, Designmuseum Danmark will host a series of talks, exhibitions, and engaging activities from June 18 to 20. Meet designers, architects, artists and change makers who share a vision for a more caring, inclusive, conscious and collaborative world. These are individuals who stand by their values and ‘keep it real’ in perfect harmony with this year’s theme.
