Designers in Residence, is a free, annual exhibition that forms part of the London Design Festival. A group of talented new product and furniture designers, all of whom have graduated within the last five years, are invited to transform an area of the Design Museum.

Presenting original concepts combined with unconventional techniques and sophisticated new technologies, the exhibition captured some of the prevailing themes in contemporary design culture. The Designers in Residence in 2007 were Sarah van Gameren, Chris O’Shea, Tomás Alonso, Richard Sweeney and Finn Magee.
