About

The Design Museum in Kensington exhibits product, industrial, graphic, fashion, and architectural design, and won the European Museum of the Year Award in 2018.

Free entry and thoughtfully designed for all ages. Recent exhibitions have included everyday objects and interactive displays. The building itself is worth seeing. Good for older children interested in design or making things; younger children may not engage unless there's a play-focused exhibition.
