The Moscow Design Museum was founded in 2012 and it is the first museum in Russia specifically dedicated to design. The museum collects, studies, and preserves Russia’s design heritage, introduces the viewers to the best examples and main schools of international design, and presents Russian design abroad.
The museum collection includes examples of domestic and foreign design from the avant-garde to the present day. These are the best works of constructivist artists, the most significant developments of Soviet designers and design associations, the works of contemporary Russian designers and cult objects of international design.
So far, the museum has successfully organized exhibition projects in some of the most prominent spaces in Russia, as well as abroad – in the UK, Holland, Germany, Belgium, and China. The museum represents the Russian Federation at the international level: in 2015, the museum presented an exhibition on the Russian avant-garde in the Russian Pavilion at EXPO 2015 in Milan. In 2016, the museum’s exhibition “Discovering Utopia: Lost Archives of Soviet Design” took part in the first London Biennale of Design (Somerset House, London) and was awarded the medal of the Biennale for the best response to the topic.
The museum works with professional audiences and students, holds forums and conferences dedicated to current issues in the development of Russian design. The museum puts much effort into educational activities engaging leading European and Russian designers and design historians.
The museum is creating a series of documentary films on design, including “History of Russian Design”, “Holland – Territory of Design”, “Discovering Utopia”, “Sweden. Design for Society”, “British Design. Traditions and Innovations”. Together with the world's largest publishing houses, the museum publishes books based on its own collection: “Designed in the USSR: 1950-1989”, “VNIITE - Discovering Utopia”, “Vladimir Runge: from“ Horizon ”to“ Zenith ”
