New display of design research |
|
|
|
 | Until August 2024 We have plenty of things to be excited about in 2023, including a brand-new display space curated by Future Observatory, the museum’s national research programme for the green transition. It will be the first display in a series coordinated in partnership with the Arts and Humanities Research Council. The free display brings together six ongoing design research projects responding to the environmental crisis and exploring liveable futures. Visitors will learn about radical new approaches to fashion, waste, materials and architecture. Find out more |
