Great design museum with a cosy cafe with seating in the courtyard - nice and quiet in the summer. In the summer period Grønnegårdteateret performs classic plays on the outdoor scene.

Chris Miles

Brilliant day out at the design museum . Fantastic collection of chairs and great clothing galleries . The cafe was also excellent.

Have a meal at the café ! Delicious Danish food . Had fishcakes , marinated herring , grilled cheese/ham sandwich , elderflower drink, chocolate cake . Top notch, affordable , surrounded by Danish design .

Aditya

Has a good collection of furniture apart from other things. The central garden is used as a outdoor theatre and i would have loved to attend a performce there. Free english tours on Sunday at 2pm.

Johnny Koutiolas

Nice museum with some very beautiful artefacts. It's amazing to see that some pieces of furniture that can perfectly fit a modern house of today, were designed so long ago.

James Mashiri

The place to go in Copenhagen if you're looking for inspiration on design. The shop is very good and affordable with a great selection of books , posters and other items.

I have bought a "designed" toothbrush from museum shop. It was nice :) It has a nice location and must to see exhibitions . I wish I can carry a Danish chair to home :)

Jack Michalak

The cafe is fantastic with great food. I would suggest you get the elderflower juice here if you haven't had it before.

Not only when you are a designer, but in case the masterpieces of human can impress you - #mustvisit. And absolutely free if you are under 26

Nice museum with an interesting permanent collection . The temorary exhibition "Learning from Japan" remains a bit too superficial. Nice cafe&inner garden for warmer times.

Kristina Nielsen

They have some nice exibitions with furniture and fashion design. It's worth a visit if you are in Copenhagen and love good design

Julian Hand

Half modern exhibition about chairs and partly architecture , half old furniture / clothing exhibition . Free wifi in the lobby, fun photos with the chairs in the lobby

Christine Chao

The museum was nice but a little small to be honest. The cafe was absolutely amazing though! Loved the food and the garden is gorgeous to sit in :)

Daniel Roy

Lovely permanent collection . The inner courtyard is a nice place to sit in the sun.

A lovely museum with an amazing shop!

Jeanette Mayland

Quite difficult to study a period as each category is displayed seperately and they don’t seem to care much for context or telling a unified story

Zsofia Koinberg

Great exhibition about the famous design pieces that inspired the world of design.

A museum worth a visit for everyone with a slight interest in design . The café is very nice as well .
