The Design Museum Collection is made up by over 2000 objects that range from the early Modernism of the 1900s to the cutting edge of contemporary design. The Collection tells the history of design in mass production and includes furniture, lighting, domestic appliances and communications technology. The Collection is an important record of the key designs which have shaped the modern world. Following a process of reviewing the museum's Collection, as well as its handling collection and archive, for the first time in five years, highlights from the Collection were on display for the exhibition This is Design in 2011.
