The Mecca of Design: Design Museum Danmark
Monday

On my recent trip to Copenhagen, I finally got a chance to visit the holy shrine: Design Museum Danmark.
To everyone in the interior design field, especially us who has been doing so many Scandinavian designs in recent years, it was a dream come true. I was basically like a kid in the candy shop, running around the museum, studying each and every piece, admiring these Hall of Fame original designs up close and personal. Looking at those thoughtful details, those forms and curves, those materials and structure, it’s easy to see why these designs never go out of style, after almost a century.
I can only wish everyone shares the same respect for originality and creativity as much as I do. And we can all create, and enjoy more timeless designs for years to come.
