Current exhibitions: From one place to another, At home in the Design Museum, Habitations, Presence, new work by textile designer Ýrúrarí

Designer Einar Þorsteinn Ásgerisson (1942-2015) left behind many beautiful and entertaining things (and thoughts) such as these drawings of polygons that he invited people to cut out and assemble. He believed in the power of thinking with one's hands and said, "I use a model to conduct experiments, I conduct experiments to understand." Those who visit the workshop can experience this and acquire a polygon piece by Einar Þorstein along the way.
Designer Auður Ösp Guðmundsdóttir oversees the workshop, which is suitable for young people of all ages and is open from 13-14 on Sunday the 7th of May.

The exhibitions are all part of DesignMarch 2023
