    I hate to be a negative Nancy, but it's kind of underwhelming compared to New York Design Museum.

    Not worth £12. Cluttered, old fashioned layout, very dark. Lack of care and eye for detail. Needs a lot of work. Looks great outside though.

    Какой-то странный музей дизайна. Хотя вот интересная деталь. Дизайн купюры 500 Евро, точная копия моста на о. Русский, т.е. наоборот!
