The Design Museum Touring Programme This programme was set up in 2002 with the aim of bringing design exhibitions to audiences around the UK and internationally.

Since then, the museum has toured more than 120 exhibitions to 101 venues in 29 countries worldwide.

The Design Museum’s touring exhibitions range in size from 150 to 1000 square metres and cover all areas of design – architecture, fashion, furniture, graphics, product and more.

About the Design Museum The Design Museum is the world’s leading museum devoted to architecture and design. Its work encompasses all elements of design, including fashion, product and graphic design. Since it opened its doors in 1989, the museum has displayed everything from an AK-47 to high heels designed by Christian Louboutin.

It has staged over 100 exhibitions, welcomed over five million visitors and showcased the work of some of the world’s most celebrated designers and architects including Paul Smith, Zaha Hadid, Jonathan Ive, Miuccia Prada, Frank Gehry, Eileen Gray and Dieter Rams. On 24 November 2016, the Design Museum relocated to Kensington, West London. Architect John Pawson converted the interior of a 1960s modernist building to create a new home for the Design Museum, giving it three times more space in which to show a wider range of exhibitions and significantly extend its learning programme.

1. NASA, Curiosity, 2011–18 2. Foster + Partners, Mars Habitat design competition, RAC Laboratory, 2015

Getting humans to Mars has become one of the great projects of our time. Unlike the Moon landings of the last space race, however, this ambition is not purely symbolic. Mars holds the potential of human settlement and the promise of life after Earth.

Some of the world’s greatest entrepreneurs, architects and engineers are dedicating themselves to conquering the next frontier.

This exhibition explores the crucial role that design will play in this collective endeavour. From the capsules that need to keep dozens of passengers in harmony over a nine-month journey, to the habitats they will live in on Mars, and the terraforming of the landscape; every detail needs to be designed. This is falling to the traditional space agencies, such as NASA, to private entrepreneurs, such as Elon Musk and Jeff Bezos, and to architects such as Norman Foster. The exhibition presents the current state of design ingenuity, from shuttle environments to Martian homes, clothing and tools. But it also invites designers and artists to collaborate with the space agencies to create new designs, and to speculate about the way this future might play out.

The exhibition will explore the appeal of Mars and reveal a likely roadmap for the first manned missions. As well as technical and practical solutions, the exhibition will examine how design can address some of the more social and anthropological aspects of what it means to become a star-faring, multiplanetary species.

This is the time of the smartphone, social media and Airbnb: all of them designed within the last decade. Each of them has reshaped how we live in ways that few could have predicted.

It is the time of the global refugee crisis, and a growing sense of social responsibility – to each other, and to the planet. Though the problems facing us may sometimes seem intractable, this is also a time of unprecedented innovation through design of all kinds, from buildings to software.

‘Designs of our Time’ is an optimistic and uplifting exhibition, bringing together the designs that have shaped our world in the years since Steve Jobs launched the smartphone in 2007. The exhibition is organised into seven themes, each reflecting on how design is responding to a key social, economic or environmental issue facing the world today. It features autonomous vehicles, smart devices and websites, as well as furniture, books and buildings. Each of the featured projects (ranging between 60 and 100) is the starting point for an exploration of how it was designed, made and used, engaging audiences to discover the social and cultural impact of design.

‘Designs of our Time’ conveys the wide range of approaches to design, and provide a lens through which to understand the rapid changes that the world is going through.

What makes a myth? How does a car acquire an immortal name? What makes its creator an enigma and a legend?

Building a brand today is a calculated and knowing process, but Ferrari arose to international fame through a more elusive and organic process, that suited different times; it started in an Italy ravaged by the Second World War, where Enzo Ferrari and his small team decided to create the perfect racing machine.

Charting the holistic development of the luxury car brand as well as the design, the exhibition explores Ferrari’s powerful personality, the manufacturing process and its rising profile amongst its famous clientele.

From the very first Ferrari to Michael Schumacher’s winning Formula One car, and including the newest hybrid model, the exhibition features rare cars as well as memorabilia displayed in public for the first time. This is a unique behind-the-scenes that will allow visitors to race through 70 years of the Ferrari experience through original hand-drawn sketches, sculpturelike models and engines, alongside films and interviews telling one of the great design stories of all time.

We see the world in colour, but rarely do we appreciate how it shapes what we see. In this unique exhibition, the acclaimed designer Hella Jongerius presents a reading of the world through colour. Drawing on years of research, she sets out to make us look deeper at the way colour behaves – on shapes and surfaces, in shadows and reflections. Through a series of phenomenological studies and experiences, the exhibition makes us question one of the most elemental aspects of design.

How does colour behave on different forms and textures? What happens if you bend or fold a surface? How does a hue change at different times of the day? Where does colour end and its shadow begin? Hella Jongerius’ studies into such questions form the basis of what is an extraordinary sensory experience.

The exhibition contains hundreds of dynamic elements, from textiles and porcelain tiles to what she calls ‘colour catchers’ and ‘3D colour wheels’, multi-faceted geometric mobiles that display the complex behaviour of light and movement on surfaces.

Rich in sensory experiences and layered with cultural interpretation, this is an exhibition that inspires both design industry insiders and a broad audience drawn to the dynamics of colour in design, art and life.

TOUR AVAILABILITY from Autumn 2019 to late 2019 and from June 2020

This exhibition looks at how design can help people lead fuller, healthier and more rewarding lives into old age, asking the question: how can designers meet the challenge of a rapidly ageing society? From robotic clothing to driverless cars, ‘NEW OLD’ rethinks design approaches to ageing.

The exhibition is organised into six sections: Ageing, Identity, Home, Community, Working and Mobility, each featuring a special design commission by a leading designer or design team, creating new solutions for demographic change as well as addressing the challenges of ages.

With new projects by Yves Béhar/fuseproject, Konstantin Grcic, Future Facility, Special Projects, IDEO and Priestman Goode, alongside products, prototypes and outstanding examples of infrastructure and urban planning, ‘NEW OLD’ examines how innovation and design can reimagine how we live the later stages of our lives.

Curated by Edward Barber and Jay Osgerby, ‘In the Making’ captures objects mid-manufacture and puts the aesthetic of the unfinished centre stage. Varying from a cricket bat to a MacBook, a surprising range of objects has been chosen by Barber and Osgerby to be exhibited in an unfinished state, celebrating the intriguing beauty of the making process and revealing the unexpected quality that everyday objects have before assuming their final, recognisable form.

The exhibition provides a glimpse of the designers’ ongoing dialogue with manufacturing that is so distinctive to their practice.

Throughout their careers, Barber and Osgerby have had a technical curiosity and fascination with the making process. The way in which things are created has had a profound influence on them and continually inspires their work.

These partially-made objects give an insight into the design thinking that has driven this duo to such acclaimed success, including designing the London 2012 Olympic Torch, which went on to be awarded the Design Museum’s Design of the Year 2012.

Their multidisciplinary approach challenges the boundaries of industrial design, architecture and art.

In a career spanning over 40 years, Paul Smith has become one of Britain’s foremost designers. The Paul Smith brand is known for an unmistakable classic Englishness augmented with a colourful ‘twist’.

The exhibition explores how Paul Smith’s unique and intuitive take on design, coupled with a deep understanding of the relationship between designer and retailer, have laid the foundations for the company’s lasting success. It charts the company’s development from Paul’s first shop in Nottingham to its now global scale.

The exhibition, which has broken visitor attendance records, is presented through the different stages of design and production behind a catwalk collection, offering great insight into Paul Smith’s design and marketing process.
